On the eve of his reported sit-down with Dana White in Los Angeles on Wednesday, Eddie Hearn says he would welcome the Zuffa Boxing boss at the next Tyson Fury-Anthony Joshua press conference.<\/p>\n

Oscar De La Hoya explains why he refused to attend Ryan Garcia-Conor Benn<\/p>\n

There is one caveat: Hearn wants the pair to be allowed to hash out their differences for the world to see.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe will only be there if we allow him to be there,\u201d Hearn told Ariel Helwani.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t have an issue with Dana White being at the press conference. I would actually love to get him up there. But you\u2019ve got to let us go at it.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you think you\u2019ve seen a car crash so far, wait till you see when I get in front of him at a press conference. My goodness… It would just be like taking candy from a baby.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hearn and White have been engaged in an increasingly ugly feud since well before the announcement of Fury and Joshua\u2019s Friday, December 11 showdown at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales.<\/p>\n

White has claimed he is the promoter of record on behalf of Saudi boxing financier Turki Alalshikh. Hearn has countered by pointing to Joshua\u2019s contract, which he says specifically prohibits White from being involved in the fight.<\/p>\n

\u201cI look at my social media, all that kind of stuff\u2026 My profile in America is nowhere near where it is in the UK, and that\u2019s starting to change a lot because of the battle with Dana. Every time he speaks, he\u2019s talking about me, and it’s really been really good for me and fun, obviously even more fun when you\u2019re winning. But it\u2019s a battle, and I think it\u2019s only the first of many in this process.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hearn added that White, who was not present at the launch press conference on September 30, could have been involved in the fight already but has so far refused to offer an olive branch and end the hostilities.<\/p>\n

\u201cDana keeps being told, \u2018Just stop. Don\u2019t say this, don\u2019t say this,\u2019 and he can\u2019t help himself. It makes it worse and worse and worse,\u201d Hearn said.<\/p>\n

\u201cFive or six weeks ago, he was expected to come out and say, \u2018I understand there\u2019s a clause in the contract that means we can\u2019t be involved promotionally. I\u2019m going to reach out to Eddie and Matchroom, we\u2019re going to have a sit-down.\u2019 He was told to say that, and he wouldn\u2019t say it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, Hearn maintains that the door is not closed.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThey could potentially be involved\u2026 I\u2019m happy to talk, but you can\u2019t just presume that we\u2019re going to allow you to breach an agreement, walk all over us and talk the way you\u2019ve spoken. Everyone will always tell you about me: he\u2019s a man of principles. But there\u2019s always a deal to be done. We can work it out, and we can all win, but not like this.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a tough few weeks and months. It\u2019s a dogfight,\u201d Hearn continued. \u201cBut we\u2019ll see what happens now. We\u2019ll have good days, we\u2019ll have bad days. But you\u2019ve got to celebrate the wins and know that you\u2019ll get beat sometimes and know that you\u2019ll have tough days. I\u2019m not sure I\u2019m feeling myself, but I\u2019m buzzing.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you get them [people] saying, Keep going, Eddie, we\u2019re loving this. Show them.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Thank you for bringing the fight to Britain.<\/p>\n

“Thank you for winning this race with Dana White.<\/p>\n

“Keep going. It\u2019s a pretty good feeling.\u201d<\/p>\n

David Benavidez vs Andy Ruiz Jr?! Jose Benavidez Sr. REVEALS Huge Fight Plans<\/p>\n

David Benavidez has no shortage of HUGE fights on his radar. In an exclusive interview with BoxingScene, Jose Benavidez Sr. makes it clear that David still wants the biggest names at 175lbs including Dmitry Bivol and Artur Beterbiev. Benavidez has previously said those are two fights he wants to make as he pursues more titles and major challenges. But there\u2019s another name that could make things very interesting: Andy Ruiz Jr. Jose discusses the possibility of an all-Mexican showdown between Benavidez and the former heavyweight champion, along with David\u2019s plans across multiple divisions. And with a potential Jai Opetaia showdown also building after the pair came face-to-face following Opetaia\u2019s latest victory, Benavidez has some massive options ahead.<\/p>\n
