Dana White snubbed as official Fury vs. Joshua promoter

Key Points:

• The British Boxing Board of Control (BBBOC) confirmed that the promoters for the Dec. 11 Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua fight are Sela, Matchroom Boxing, and Queensberry Promotions, with no official involvement from Dana White or Zuffa Boxing.
• Dana White was named in a Netflix press release announcing the fight, sparking controversy since contracts signed by Joshua and Fury explicitly excluded White and Zuffa Boxing from promoting the event.
• Despite White's public insistence on promoting the fight and his backing by Fury and financier Turki Al-Sheikh, he has not yet been granted a British license to promote the event, which is required under BBBOC regulations.
• Ongoing discussions are taking place about Sela's designation of a British license holder, leaving a potential opening for White to become involved, but as of now, Zuffa Boxing has not applied to participate officially.
• White's claims to be promoting the fight have come into question, especially after he was not mentioned at the official launch press conference and has faced opposition from Matchroom's Eddie Hearn, who favors a UK-based promotion.
