Dana White has challenged Eddie Hearn to settle their ongoing feud
inside a boxing gym, inviting the Matchroom Boxing chairman to
choose a location in London for a potential face-off.
The
Ultimate Fighting Championship CEO made the offer after
dismissing reports that Misfits Boxing had proposed paying both men
$10 million to compete on one of its cards.
Dana White invites Eddie Hearn to choose a London boxing gym
after disputing Misfits Boxing’s reported $10 million offer
White and Hearn have repeatedly exchanged public jibes amid their
disagreement over White’s involvement in the upcoming Tyson Fury
vs. Anthony
Joshua blockbuster, scheduled for Dec. 11 in Cardiff, Wales.
While the pair have entertained the possibility of a boxing match
through their public exchanges, White now appears interested in
settling the matter privately.
Speaking to All Out Fighting following a Zuffa Boxing event in
London, White questioned the appeal of a potential matchup, taking
particular aim at Hearn’s lack of boxing experience.
“Eddie Hearn’s a bum. He’s never boxed, ever,” White said.
White also dismissed the suggestion that he had personally received
an official offer from Misfits Boxing, despite the promotion
maintaining that an offer had been sent to both parties.
White, however, was not entirely opposed to a physical
confrontation. Rather than turn their ongoing dispute into a paid
boxing attraction, he invited Hearn to meet him at a gym of his
choosing.
“If Eddie Hearn wants to fight, he can pick the gym here in
London,” White said. “We’ll go down to the f*cking gym, me and him,
and we can f*cking do it.”
