Eddie Hearn has insisted he "loves" Frazer Clarke and only cropped the heavyweight star out of his UFC London Instagram post because he wanted to zoom in.
The Matchroom Boxing kingpin was cageside with British heavyweights Derek Chisora and Anthony Joshua, UFC president Dana White and newly-turned professional Clarke at The O2 on Saturday night. Hearn later posted an photo of the group - but cropped out Olympic medalist Clarke.
But Hearn claimed there was no malice behind it and confirmed he had "love" for the recent 2020 Olympic medalist. "On the Frazer Clarke post, it was only because I had to do the close-up; I love big Fraze," Hearn said on Instagram. "We had a photo of me, Dana, AJ and Derek but I did just crop Frazer out... but it's all love."
