“He’s Cost Joshua £110m”



The WBC Heavyweight Champion’s father had words for Eddie Hearn, one of the promoters trying to take on his son in the British superfight.

John Fury is perhaps best known for two things – outspoken and his son’s number one advocate. It’s no surprise that he’s not a huge fan of Hearn, as the Fury side started blaming him for the broken Anthony Joshua negotiations.

Hearn, the ‘AJ’ promoter, is adamant that their team wants to fight Tyson Fury and that they will sign when the contract is ready. However, Fury’s promoter in the United States, Bob Arum, came out recently and said that Hearn is stalling.

John Fury was asked his opinion on promoters by JOE – first answer in general and refer to some specific facts.

“Not much. He’s a spoiled brat and he’s not a good manager at all. Because he’s worth 110 million AJ and beat him three times. I don’t want him to manage. reason me.”

“Eddie Hearn did a great job [Joshua] to the press – but he made some big mistakes in his career when he turned down a 15 million quid advance and [Fury] will fight Usyk – and then the belts will go back to Great Britain. All of them.

And, again, we here today have given him almost half of everything across the board and we still can’t get him to sign. So if Eddie Hearn says don’t sign, I’ll reconsider.

After Joshua’s first loss to Oleksandr Usyk, it was reported that he was offered money not to trigger the rematch clause – allowing Usyk to face Fury to be crowned an undisputed champion. The deal was successful.

Fast-forward to today and there are talks for Fury to face Joshua for the ex’s WBC belt. While it looked promising at one stage, things seem to have slowed down.

With December 3 approaching, it seems unlikely that if the fight hadn’t been announced earlier this week, it wouldn’t have happened. If that’s the case, it’s safe to assume that the Furys will have Hearn as the cause.
