Eddie Hearn has addressed Tyson Fury\u2019s accusations that Anthony Joshua is attempting to pull out of their long-awaited domestic dustup.<\/p>\n

While having signed separate deals to square off in November, it would appear that both \u2018The Gypsy King\u2019 and \u2018AJ\u2019 have agreed to different terms.<\/p>\n

The location, for instance, has become a point of fierce discussion<\/a>, with Hearn having insisted that, as per Joshua\u2019s contract, their fight must take place in the UK.<\/p>\n

Fury, on the other hand, seems to have expressed no preference and is happy to accommodate Netflix\u2019s request for an event at Madison Square Garden, New York.<\/p>\n

It would also appear that Hearn, after digging his heels in for the last few weeks, is now coming to terms with the likelihood of a stateside showdown.<\/p>\n

The Matchroom promoter has, after all, presented an addendum to Sela<\/a> \u2013 the Saudi Arabia event organisers and financers \u2013 effectively listing a series of demands on behalf of Joshua.<\/p>\n

If these conditions are met, then the 36-year-old is likely to travel to New York, yet Fury has nonetheless expressed doubt that their fight will even take place<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In response, Hearn has taken to social media and reminded the 38-year-old that there are existing contracts.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201c[Fury\u2019s comments are] all good fun but [lack] any substance, as usual. When he says \u2018it looks like AJ has pulled out of the fight\u2019 \u2013 we can\u2019t pull out of the fight because we have signed a contract.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe follow contracts, so we are just waiting on the date.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

While Hearn attempts to resist a location change, the amending of contracts could see Joshua return to the scene of his seventh-round stoppage defeat to Andy Ruiz Jr in 2019.<\/p>\n
