His latest interviews devote lengthy stretches to how he resisted pressure and won their contractual dispute, taking attention away from two fighters whose vulnerabilities offer a much stronger selling point.

Hearn needs to take a seat and let Joshua and Fury have the attention, because every interview spent discussing his rivalry with Dana White takes time away from selling the fight. Fans tune in to watch the fighters, and getting them interested in two aging heavyweights who are past their best is already a difficult job without asking them to follow two promoters bickering.

His frustration over the press conference setup makes the misdirection worse. Hearn complained openly about receiving only a single question, making it clear he wanted the microphone so he could direct the narrative himself. That desire to steer the room looks less like effective fight promotion and more like an appetite for the spotlight.
