Promoter, Eddie Hearn, has declared that a collapse of the long-awaited Anthony Joshua versus Tyson Fury showdown is impossible, insisting the contract for the bout has already been signed and cannot simply be walked away from.
Speaking to DAZN, Hearn said the fight, which has moved closer to fruition after months of talks, was now firmly locked in, with only a breach of the signed agreement capable of derailing it.
“We’ve signed the contract, we’re waiting for a date. You saw Tyson Fury shouting and screaming. There’s nothing to shout and scream about, the fight’s done,” he said.
“The fight’s signed. No one can pull out of the fight. You can’t just pull out of a contract.”
His comments came after Fury suggested the blockbuster bout was in danger because Joshua was allegedly seeking more money, a claim Hearn dismissed as noise, insisting the contracts had already been signed by both parties.
