He would be fine with White producing the show<\/a> for Netflix, but they\u2019d need to sit down and hash things out.<\/p>\nSpeaking with reporters after Contender Series on Tuesday night, White refuted Hearn\u2019 claims about missing the presser and that he had any need to sit down with Hearn in the first place.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt wasn\u2019t because it\u2019s weird if Dana White doesn\u2019t show up to Dana White\u2019s Contender Series on a Tuesday?\u201d White said. \u201dI haven\u2019t missed one in 10 years, no matter what. And then I had the press conference and the fight in Utah. And the day that we held it, the reason that day was held is because that was the day Turki \u2014 Turki wanted to be at the press conference, and that was why.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is absolutely zero confusion. Everything that I have said since however long ago is true. Now he\u2019s open to meeting with me; about what? What should we possibly meet about?\u201d<\/p>\n
When a reporter followed up, noting that Hearn claimed White\u2019s inclusion in the event would constitute a breach of contract, White gave a curt response before sounding off on the whole affair.<\/p>\n
\u201cSounds like he\u2019s got an incredible lawsuit,\u201d White said.<\/p>\n
\u201cDid he talk about AJ and Fury? OK perfect. That\u2019s all that matters! Who gives a shit?! Have I been wrong in anything that I\u2019ve said? Not yet! Nothing! I am producing the fight. I am promoting the fight. I will be there at the fight. And then I\u2019m flying right back to Vegas for the UFC fight. And all of my producers and guys that run production will be flying with me. We already had the meeting. The meeting was yesterday.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is so f*cking silly now. And the fact that you guys are even asking me these questions! And if he\u2019s on Ariel Helwani for however long he\u2019s on, he\u2019s talking about me? Why?! Why am I the main topic?!<\/p>\n
\u201cAJ and Fury are fighting! Those two are gonna make a f*ck-ton of money. The fight is finally happening. And everything that I have said about my involvement in the fight has been absolutely true.\u201d<\/p>\n
Despite their obvious antagonism toward one another, Hearn seems to share White\u2019s growing exhaustion with this back-and-forth, admitting that the feud had turned \u201cchildish.\u201d White, meanwhile, just wants to focus on what matters: the fight itself.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m producing the show, and at the end of the day, who gives a shit?\u201d White reiterated. \u201cThey\u2019re fighting. Yes, I\u2019m helping promote the fight. Yes, I\u2019m producing the fight. He\u2019s gonna make a f*ck-ton of money, him and AJ. That\u2019s it.<\/p>\n
\u201cI heard that he had said he looks forward to the press conference so he and [I] \u2014 it\u2019s not about me and him. He can\u2019t stop talking about this. It\u2019s not about me and him. AJ and Fury is the fight. Who gives a shit about me and Eddie Hearn? \u2026<\/p>\n
\u201cIs that really what people want to see? Eddie and I are not the same. We\u2019re not even f*cking close.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dana White has had enough of the never-ending drama with Eddie Hearn.
