Eddie Hearn claims TKO offered Anthony Joshua roughly $10 million to let them promote a Fury-Joshua fight. Hearn says the company wants to be front and center of the fight to showcase Zuffa Boxing as the key player in the sport.


The British Boxing Board of Control has confirmed Matchroom Boxing, Queensberry and Saudi Arabia's SELA as the official promoters of Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua. Dana White, Zuffa Boxing and TKO are not named in the paperwork and are not currently promoters of the show. Netflix's earlier press release had named White as promoter, and he was not listed among the promoters announced at the first press conference, which TKO's Nick Khan attended.


Netflix is actively working to mediate the ongoing dispute surrounding a potential Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua fight and push the bout forward. A deadline was set the previous night, and there is reported optimism that the two sides are moving closer to a resolution.


The highly anticipated heavyweight superfight between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua, announced for Dec. 11 at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, is reportedly in danger of falling through. The sticking point is Anthony Joshua and promoter Eddie Hearn's contractual insistence that UFC CEO Dana White play no role in the event, while backer Turki Alalshikh — co-founder of White's Zuffa Boxing — insists on White's involvement. Fury responded publicly, calling Joshua and Hearn 'shithouse cowards' and accusing Hearn's ego of driving the impasse.
