    Frank isn't Fury's promoter.

    The Hearn hate on this forum is so weird. Clear as day, Fury didn't want the fight and Arum is snide as ****.

    You're right. Frank probably had fack all to do with this fight but he wasn't shy in piping up when it came to asking for proof of funds. He's happy to act like he's involved when it suits him and when it doesn't suit him, it's 85 shoulder shrugs alongside "nuffin to do with me".

    People should be directing their ire towards Tyson Fury and his team not towards Eddie Hearn.

    So what he wanted credit for making the fight. He was the one running around like a dog getting all the offers in whilst the other side were happy enough to keep up the charade of acting like they're interested in the fight by demanding every single thing possible before they signed off on their end.

    In reality they knew all long they were going to fight Wilder and all they were doing with Eddie was dragging it out long enough for the arbitration decision to be made so they can give Eddie the middle finger and go do what they wanted to all along.

    No one comes out of this looking all rosy but Tyson and his team are a major disappointment. Real fighting men. Give me a break. He's the biggest hypocrite and liar going.

    Oh who cares lol. There's plenty of fights in boxing to keep the sport going at all levels and weight classes haha.

    Not gonna lie though, it is pretty funny seeing Hearn get given the run around and played all along.

    Arun is well known for saying fights should be built and take their time. They feel they can sell another Ppv before the AJ fight which keeps them in ESPNs good books.


    He did that no that Hearn would not be able to deliver in the pandemic as he himself had never seen that Middle East money. He let Hearn stew for 5 months and eventually got backed into a corner as contract was on the table and money going into escrow. The plan was always to make some easy money from the Wilder rematch hence arum and warren continuously said AJ wasn’t happening and Fury has to fight in July.

    They sold Hearn down the river and if I was Hearn. I would be very sceptical about making that fight later in the year. How can you work with people like that? The Wilder vs Fury contract was signed in 3 days. It’s mental a fight of that magnitude can be fully vetted and signed off by lawyers unless it was already happing behind the scenes.

    if I was AJ I would fight Usyk, Whyte, Hrgovic and Ruiz 3 to leave fury fighting kabayel and let the public see him for what he is.
    For me AJ is like a cristiano ronaldo and will stay hungry and ready forever. Fury is a Wayne Rooney and he will not stay disciplined forever.

    the Wilder fight is 8 weeks away and he’s been living it up in Miami for the last 2 weeks

    I don't see how hearn can be blamed here. Fury lost the court case and has to fight wilder. Eddie was the only 1 that was positive all the way through negotiations.

    All fury and his team where doing was setting deadlines and being negative. I think they probably knew they had to fight wilder but just sent Eddie on a mission.

    Arum is a lawyer so he 100% knew fury v Joshua wasn't happening. It all seemed strange. If your fighter is about to become undisputed and make loads of money the messages and interviews would have been a lot different.

    If I was Eddie hearn I would be fuming and not be in a major rush to work with them again. 5 months for nothing is hard to take

    It’s funny until you realise we missed
    The heavyweight fight of our generation and if one of them gets sparked we will never see it.

    What's your point?

    He was the only one who tried to make the fight happen.

    The reason it didn't happen was not his fault.

    I get you have an agenda but atleast try harder.

    Tyson is a joke. Don't believe a singe word that comes out of his mouth. He obviously knew full well what Arum was upto. That's what the random private jet "a bit of business" trip with Bob Arum, was for.

    I think Eddie is going to find a way to kick the Usyk fight into the long grass and make the Whyte fight. Already seen people on Twitter say Usyk vs AJ is the better fight but the build up to AJ vs Whyte would be “mad” and they’d rather see that fight. Whyte is just an AJ uppercut KO waiting to happen. No interest in that or Ruiz III at all.

    I agree that it would of been nice to have seen Fury animated or at least pretending to give a toss about losing the undisputed fight. He couldn’t of looked happier signing that Wilder 3 contract on Saturday night..

    Doesnt matter if you like hearn or not.

    It was clear as day the fury team never showed any interest or spoke positively about it.

    Followed by fury being over the moon to be fighting wilder. No moaning, no fuss just a big grin as he signed the wilder contract.
