Eddie Hearn wants a public debate with Dana
White amid their dispute over White’s role in Tyson Fury
vs. Anthony
Joshua.
Fury and Joshua are scheduled to meet Dec. 11 at Principality
Stadium in Cardiff, Wales. White has repeatedly claimed he is
involved alongside Turki Alalshikh, while Hearn maintains that the
Ultimate Fighting Championship CEO cannot take part in
promoting or producing the event without his approval.

Eddie Hearn expects Dana White to attend Fury vs. Joshua
presser and wants an open ‘debate’ with UFC CEO
Hearn expects White to attend the fight and hopes they can discuss
their differences at the prefight press conference.
“I think he’ll be there,” Hearn told iFL TV. “I’m certain he’ll be
there. I hope he’s at the press conference. I got a lot to say with
him on an open forum; I think it’ll be a great back-and-forth
debate.”
White says the UFC production team will handle the broadcast, a
role Hearn maintains is barred under the existing contractual
arrangements.
