Eddie Hearn insists. he is not disappointed at losing the purse bid for Tyson Fury’s clash with Dillian Whyte.
Hearn was beaten to the punch by rival promoter Frank Warren who bid £31million to Hearn’s £24m.
Warren will now stage the fight in the UK in April with Cardiff’s Principality Stadium the likely host venue.
But Hearn insists he has no regrets over missing out.
“We would have lost a lot of money and he probably wouldn’t have taken the fight,” he told The MMA Hour.
“We don’t get on all the time; I do have a lot of respect for him but you never know what you’re going to get.
