Eddie Hearn Challenges Dana White’s Role in Fury-Joshua Event

Eddie Hearn claims that Anthony Joshua’s signed contract explicitly prevents UFC president Dana White from holding a promotional role for the heavyweight contest at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium. Hearn’s comments followed a Netflix press release stating the event would be promoted in conjunction with White. The promoter stated he intends to contact Netflix to address the broadcaster's contractual obligations regarding the event's promotional credits.

Hearn alleges that previous negotiations specifically named Zuffa and TKO companies as parties excluded from promotional involvement. While White has stated publicly he would promote the fight and Fury has welcomed his participation, Hearn maintains that the current agreements prohibit such an arrangement. Despite the ongoing dispute over promotional duties and official credits, the fight is still scheduled to proceed as planned on December 11.
