Tyson Fury Blames Eddie Hearn for Joshua Fight Crisis

“Breaking news, Anthony Joshua and Eddie Hearn are trying to pull out of this fight,” Fury said in a social media video. He called them “little shithouse cowards” and claimed Hearn was making “a million different” demands. Fury also told Joshua to “pull your finger out” and said he still wants to fight him in Wales.

The anger follows Chris Mannix’s report that Turki Alalshikh wants Dana White involved as a promoter, while Joshua and Hearn have a contract barring Zuffa Boxing from that role. That is a serious disagreement for the people financing and staging the event to resolve. The contract itself has not been made public.

Fury’s video puts pressure on Joshua, but it does not settle the contractual question. If Joshua’s agreement excludes Zuffa, Hearn can insist on the terms his side signed. Fury can still argue that a fight of this size should survive an argument over who gets a promotional role. Neither position makes the dispute disappear.
