Tyson Fury slams 'little jealous f*cker' Eddie Hearn amid hostile Anthony Joshua fight talks

Tyson Fury believes Eddie Hearn is the reason for the holdup of a long overdue clash with Anthony Joshua.

Fury vs. Joshua is a matchup that has been discussed heavily throughout the years. The general consensus is that both men missed their window to fight each other during their primes. Talks have intensified recently, but there has been a disagreement over the location of the bout.

“The Gypsy King†blamed Joshua's team for playing games, and he said he's moving on from the bout. In a follow-up video, Fury put Hearn on blast while praising Zuffa Boxing's lead man and UFC CEO Dana White.

“Before I forget, I'd just like to thank Dana White for making this deal happen with Netflix and getting it over the line,†Fury said. “You did an amazing job, mate. Even if Eddie's a little jealous [expletive], and hasn't got the guts to come out and say he had nothing to do with it, I'm a man, and I can give another respect for doing something great that Eddie and all his mates tried to do for years and could never do.â€

Fury also had some harsh words for Joshua, saying he won't wait for a “sausage†who was “knocked spark out†by Daniel Dubois. Fury and Joshua recently had successful tune-up fights, but things were a bit dicey for the latter. “The Gypsy King†stopped Mariusz Wach before the eighth round could begin, while Joshua had to survive two knockdowns before scoring a second-round knockout over Kristian Prenga.

Whether or not fight fans will ever get to see Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua remains to be seen, but for some, that ship has long sailed.

Tyson Fury says he’ll move on from Anthony Joshua after latest stalemate

Tyson Fury says he’ll move on from Anthony Joshua after latest stalemate
Tyson
Fury appears to have run out of patience with the long-running
saga involving Anthony
Joshua.

Fury and Joshua have spent months trying to finalize their highly
anticipated heavyweight matchup, but negotiations have stalled over
the location. Fury’s side has pushed for the fight to take place in
the United States, while Joshua and Matchroom Boxing's Eddie Hearn
have favored England.

Tyson Fury says Anthony Joshua fight is ‘going nowhere' amid
location dispute

Fury took to Instagram and claimed that Joshua is the primary
roadblock for the fight coming to fruition.

“The facts are you don't want to fight,†Fury said in an Instagram
video. “Because if you did, you'd be ready to rock and roll like I
am. Tyson Fury has already said 1,000 times will fight anywhere, no
problem at all. Turki Alalshikh has paid you tens of millions to
fight and you're still acting like little b*tches. It is what it
is. There's nothing I can do. I can't make a coward fight, can
I?â€

Fury directed more criticism towards Joshua for not overruling
Hearn's stance regarding the location. He then revealed that he's
now looking for other matchups.

“If A.J. was any sort of man, he'd overrule the sausage [Eddie
Hearn] and he'd stand up and fight, but obviously he's not,†Fury
added. “One thing for sure is I won't wait for a sausage who's been
knocked spark out by Daniel Dubois. I've waited 10 years for this;
I've been ready every time. Every single time. But one thing I
won't be doing is wasting my later years at 38 years old with a
freak who doesn't want to fight. So, I will move on… There are
plenty of world champions out there who do want to fight, who do
want to make some money, so I'll be giving them a knock. This is
going nowhere. As always, 10 years later, still in the same boat.
Still dragging on by a mouthpiece who's an absolute piece of
sh*t.â€

Dana White says fans will lose their minds for UFC Hawaii

Dana White says fans will 'lose their minds' for UFC Hawaii
Hawaii is a targeted future destination for the
Ultimate Fighting Championship.

During his recent appearance on “The Rich Eisen Show,†UFC CEO
Dana
White was asked where he'd like to stage an event the promotion
has never visited previously. Hawaii immediately came to mind,
although he explained that infrastructure has prevented the
promotion from staging an event there, but a new arena is
apparently in the works.

Dana White points to a new Hawaii arena as the key to UFC’s
long-awaited debut

According to White, the state’s existing infrastructure has been
the biggest obstacle to staging an event. However, with a new arena
targeted for 2028-29, taking the promotion to the island state is a
priority.

“One of our biggest markets since day one has been Hawaii, and
we've still never put on an event in Hawaii,†White said. “We've
had multiple world champions from Hawaii. The infrastructure there
can't support a UFC event. But now they're building a new arena
there. Supposed to be done in [2028, 2029].â€

White believes Hawaii would be a particularly attractive
destination for both fans and the UFC’s staff.

“I like destinations where people want to go,†White added. “When
we do UFC Hawaii, people will lose their minds. Who doesn't want to
go to UFC Hawaii? So, off the top of my head, you’re firing that at
me… When I think about UFC Hawaii, that will be a fun one.â€

Jason Jackson says UFC doesnt want him disrupting Islam Makhachevs division

Jason Jackson says UFC doesn't want him disrupting Islam Makhachev's division
Jason
Jackson believes he can disrupt the
Ultimate Fighting Championship's welterweight division and
upset the reigning champ.

Jackson recently called for a UFC signing while making a bold
claim. The former Bellator
welterweight champion believes he can defeat UFC welterweight king
Islam
Makhachev. Furthermore, the 35-year-old says the premier
promotion doesn't want him on the roster, considering his age.

Jason Jackson explains why he believes he can beat UFC champ
Islam Makhachev

Makhachev faced one of the toughest tests of his career while
successfully defending his welterweight title against Ian Garry at
UFC
330. Jackson claims he had his way with Garry in training and
never struggled against the Irishman.

Jackson also handed Yaroslav
Amosov his lone career loss. According to the Jamaican, Amosov,
who has finished both of his UFC wins so far, is a better fighter
than Makhachev. He believes the UFC isn't offering him a contract
as they fear that he would turn the division on its head.

“I want to go to the UFC. I'm not even gonna beat around the bush
because I feel like I could beat Makhachev,†Jackson said in an X
post. “And the reason why I said that is that he struggled with
Ian. And no disrespect to Ian, I done put Ian down in the gym. I
don't struggle with him. And from what I did to Yaroslav, I think
he is better than Makhachev. If I get into the UFC, I feel like
that's one that the UFC don't want, is a guy my age coming from a
different promotion, going there and just disrupting their whole
pecking order. I feel like that's why they are holding out on me
getting in there.â€

Jackson (20-6) is 2-2 in his last four outings and most recently
scored a 20-second knockout win at
Most Valuable Promotions' inaugural mixed martial arts event
this past May.
