Comments Thread For: Fury vs. Joshua: Hearn Says Deal On The Verge of Being Put on Paper

[James Hunt]

Hearn puts too much attention on social media trolls who are accusing his guy of ducking. That's his problem. Too obsessed with other people's opinions about him/his fighters. The more you show vulnerability, the more they go after you.

Last time Frank Warren dismissed Hearns comments as playing games and that deals need to involve him.

I think there's a part of Hearn that does this for PR, to build it, and undermine Frank.

Never misses an opportunity to diss Frank.

No, he’s just an attention seeker that likes to talk.

All parties involved signed NDA and he should respect it, and shut up until the fight is done

All the parties involved need the fight to happen especially Fury and his team.

Warren needs the money. ESPN and Arum definitely need the money with all the losses they have suffered with all Fury’s fights thus far and they want to recoup some of it before his contract is up. And Fury definitely need the money because his lifestyle isn’t cheap anymore with the fast cars and mansions he just bought.

Hearn just needs to stop acting like an attention seeker and let it sort itself out.

But Yesterday he was talking about wanting to make usyk vs AJ, day before it was whyte vs fury.

No way in hell he genuinely wants AJ vs Fury to happen.

It's the biggest fight in boxing, and Hearn would co-promote it. Of course he wants it to happen!

Didn’t Hearn say yesterday that Usyk won’t step aside?
So is he saying that AJ will fight Usyk, Fury 1 and Fury 2 next year?

He can still arrange fights and just play it by ear. Chisora might take out Usyk, even by injury that would count..... then Joshua and Fury have a clear run at two fights next year.

Genuinely will be cheering on Del Boy in that fight.

So, once again, Hearn just dismissed Usyk!

Eddie has said that if Usyk won't step aside, AJ will give up his WBO belt and fight Fury.

And both Joshua and hearn have said on many occasions previously, that Joshua isn't vacating any titles . . .

[Oldskoolg]

Oh so espn, warren, Arum et al are on board with Edward’s little scheme? Lol I swear this guy is a classic case of undiagnosed narcissistic personality disorder lol

Situations change. AJ and Fury have agrees all terms for a 2 fight deal, contingent on them both winning their next fight, AJ vs Pulev and Fury vs Wilder. If AJ gets past Pulev, It would be stupid of him to risk blowing the kind of money he would make against Fury by fighting Usyk first.
