Eddie Hearn Suggests Suing Dana White Over MSG Talks
Eddie Hearn says no arena deal exists and that any New York switch would require Anthony Joshua’s approval and compensation.
- On Tuesday, Matchroom chairman Eddie Hearn threatened legal action against UFC boss Dana White, rejecting claims that the Tyson Fury versus Anthony Joshua fight is confirmed for New York's Madison Square Garden.
- The signed contract legally mandates the heavyweight bout take place in Britain, and Hearn argues that no arena agreement exists to support White's claims regarding the New York venue.
- Hearn alleges a clause in Joshua's contract prohibits Zuffa Boxing or White from involvement, noting that TKO president Nick Khan is actually handling discussions with Netflix and the venue.
- Before approving any switch, Matchroom officials demand substantial compensation and further concessions, questioning how TKO's involvement benefits Joshua, the promotion, or fighters placed on the undercard.
- The heavyweight showdown remains alive only if Joshua agrees to abandon the original United Kingdom location, though Turki Alalshikh and Netflix favor an American date.
