By Tim Royner: Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn addressed the rumors on Wednesday of highly ranked heavyweight contender Dillian Whyte potentially signing with Top Rank Boxing to fight on ESPN. If Whyte does sign with Top Rank to fight on ESPN, he would be following lineal champion Tyson Fury over there. I think we’ve done an amazing job with Dillian Whyte,” Hearn said to AB Boxing News about the rumors of Whyte of potentially signing with Top Rank at ESPN. Right now, Fury and Whyte likely won’t bring in the subscribers to the ESPN+ app in the U.S, because they’re unknowns. He’s going to be moving up to heavyweight to try and make some noise in that weight class.
