“The Whole Pot Is $20 Million”- Misfits Boxing Co-President Offers Eddie Hearn vs. Dana White Winner-Takes-All Fight
Eddie Hearn and Dana White have shared a long-standing rivalry, with their ongoing feud recently taking another dramatic turn. The latest dispute emerged amid preparations for the highly anticipated heavyweight showdown between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua, scheduled for December 11.
Both British heavyweights are expected to clash at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, but concerns emerged after Hearn questioned White’s involvement. Since then, Hearn and White have exchanged several insults on social media, further intensifying their already bitter relationship.
Their public exchanges have attracted considerable attention, with tensions between the two influential combat sports promoters. Amid the growing hostility, Misfits Boxing president Kalle Sauerland has proposed a suitable solution, suggesting both promoters settle their differences inside the boxing ring.
“I’m gonna make an offer now. The whole pot is $20 million, I’m offering that right now, Eddie Hearn vs. Dana White, the winner takes it all. It’s a 50/50 split,” Kalle Sauerland via Misfits Boxing interview.
Earlier this year, Eddie Hearn and Dana White’s rivalry escalated after White challenged the Matchroom Boxing chief to a boxing match. Hearn accepted, expressing willingness to fight, while their feud intensified following Conor Benn’s move to Zuffa Boxing.

Eddie Hearn believes Dana White got exposed in boxing
Following Dana White’s debut as a boxing promoter with Zuffa Boxing, Eddie Hearn has never missed an opportunity to diss the UFC CEO. According to Hearn, White might ruin boxing by bringing the UFC system into the sport.
“You could literally say to him, ‘Dana, name me six middleweights that your guys could fight,’ he wouldn’t even know. It’s a huge weakness… You’re hiding behind this huge multi-billion dollar corporation… When you strip it back, like there’s no substance behind it. The brain’s cooked. You can’t think logically, you can’t answer questions without losing your rag,” said Eddie Hearn via The Ariel Helwani Show.
Ahead of the Fury vs. Joshua fight, White has mentioned that he doesn’t care about Hearn’s opinion. Given his close relationship with Turki Alalshikh, White is confident about promoting the mega fight.
