Eddie Hearn says he ‘should be suing Dana White’ over Fury-Joshua claims; White responds

MMA Fighting general

Key Points:

  • Dana White and Eddie Hearn have been publicly feuding throughout 2026, primarily over White’s entry into boxing promotion with Zuffa Boxing and the management of fighters crossing between boxing and MMA.
  • The main point of contention is the heavyweight superfight between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua, with White claiming to be the fight’s promoter, a claim Hearn disputes, especially regarding the venue deal at Madison Square Garden.
  • Hearn criticized White for allegedly overstating his promotional rights and questioned the benefits of White’s involvement for Joshua, Matchroom, and their fighters, while remaining open to discussions if it makes business sense.
  • The fight contract is under negotiation, with Hearn stating that while they’ve signed for the fight, there are disagreements over contract changes and the fight’s location, with Fury agreeing to fight in America but Joshua’s camp still discussing terms.
  • White dismissed Hearn’s comments entirely, stating he stopped listening to him months ago and called Hearn “completely full of shit,” highlighting the ongoing animosity between the two promoters.
