He wants four easy paydays and then maybe the Joshua fight,” Hearn said to iFL TV. I get the impression that Hearn wants Fury to fight his Matchroom Boxing stable fighters Tony Bellew and Dillian Whyte before he faces Joshua. What jumps out at me in reading about Hearn’s reaction to Fury asking for a 50-50 deal for the Joshua fight is how tight-fisted he is. As soon as the boxing public gets tired of seeing Joshua fight mediocre opposition, the PPV buys and ticket sales will start to drop off. If Hearn wants the bigger names to fight Joshua, he’s going to need to let them whet their beaks on some of that cold cash.
