Via Charles Brun: Tyson Fury’s father, John Fury, took to social media today to send a message blaming Eddie Hearn for negotiations with Anthony Joshua that failed in the December 3 big fight in the UK.
Instead of John seeing his son Fury as the main reason why the fight with AJ didn’t happen, he chose to blame Hearn. It seems pretty obvious that Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs) messed things up with the deadline he set.
John should have brought Fury into the jungle after the way he ruined the fight by the stupid deadlines he kept setting. Fury should have let his motivators do the work without him focusing on the business with his silly deadlines.
Without Fury, the fight would have been possible. Oh, maybe the fight could be on the road, but that will depend on the outcome of Fury’s fight in February or March against Oleksandr Usyk.
A loss for Fury to Usyk would make him and Joshua put it together for nothing since the boxing public wouldn’t bother paying to see that albatross.
“I’m finally going to put this to bed with Eddie Hearn and AJ and my son,” John Fury said. Instagram. “Yes, Eddie. You prevented the greatest war in British history from happening through no fault of ours.
“You were offered 60-40. You know, like I say, some people just think they’re smarter than they really are. I’m not trying to be a smart man in any way, shape or form because I’m not that smart. No education, but I’m not the one giving the block.
“The fans want it with the biggest fight between Anthony Joshua and my son. We’re not to blame, Eddie. You did all this alone in your own making. But listen, what can you say? I won’t mention it anymore; this is it. The final video of Eddie Hearns and the Joshuas.
“I won’t worry anymore because it’s out the window. The war will never happen. I know who stopped it. Eddie Hearn. Enough said, Eddie,” said John Fury.
