Boxing: Tyson Fury’s brother lays heavy accusation on famous promoter, Eddie Hearn
After the incessant thread of suspense being manufactured by promoter Eddie Hearn, an insider seems to have doused water on the tangible excitement he had kindled.
Just lately, Shane Fury, a brother and team mate of Tyson Fury’s, gave an insider information that throws doubts over the recent hypes Eddie Hearn had been airing.
Fans have been expecting a bout between Heavyweight fighters Deontay wilder and Anthony Joshua. The attraction here is to see Anthony Joshua box with the former Heavyweight champion, so that their skills and sturdiness could be weighed together.
Also, just as Derek Chisora once said, everyone likes watching Anthony Joshua. Maybe it is because he is handsome, but who knows?
For long, talks have been going on, and promoter Eddie Hearn had always answered that talks were likely to end soon, making fans vibrate with excitement. One thing that surprises onlookers is why this fight is getting hard to land.
Both fighters have at no time revealed they were not going to fight each other.
The only fact that seems to have kept the signing of signatures lingering, according to trusted sources, are phrases and clauses one group wants to be added or exempted from the contract. Now Eddie Hearn had kept announcing like a chef trying to convince hungry people that the food was coming. But Shane Fury was clear when he spoke.
‘Eddie Hearn does say a lot of things doesn’t he? He’s been promising that negotiations have been going on for Deontay Wilder and Joshua, but I can tell you inside information that it’s dead in the water. In the water. Listen, I’m not going into that cause it’s not my thing, but he’s full of s**t half the time.’
This means he thinks Eddie Hearn is likely lying. Now everyone is bad in at least one other person’s story, but if it happens that Eddie Hearn was lying all this time, it could affect the promoter’s brand.
In the world of sports, it takes a long time to become an authority and trusted source, but just like in other endevours in life, one slip can cause an irreversible downfall. it seems Eddie Hearn is very close. It would be good for him if this fight takes place as soon as he promised.
