'Wasn't as expected' - Eddie Hearn makes Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua contract claim

Eddie Hearn has said that the initial contract he received for his client Anthony Joshua's fight against Tyson Fury wasn't as expected, as talks continue for the highly anticipated fight on December 3rd.

Fury's representative Frank Warren sent paperwork to Hearn's Matchroom team, with a 60:40 split already having been agreed in Fury's favour. An announcement is expected soon, but as ever with such negotiations there can always be issues and Hearn revealed that there have been some issues with some of the more minor terms of the agreement.

On Thursday, Hearn revealed that they had been handed a setback in negotiations as a result but that they were now back on track. The good news will be that a deal is expected to be struck soon for the fight which is set to take place at Cardiff's Principality Stadium.
