Hearn explained that discussions with TKO and Turki Alalshikh\u2019s team had moved toward America, despite language in the prevailing agreement calling for the fight to happen within the UK. He stressed that any change would require the contract to be renegotiated.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe had a gathering the opposite day with Nick Khan from TKO. Clearly, Turki Alalshikh works with those guys. All of them want the fight in America. We\u2019ve been told within the last 24 hours that\u2019s what they need,\u201d said Hearn to DAZN before explaining the present contract specifies Britain as the placement. He later said, \u201cIf there\u2019s a reason that he and Netflix want this fight to happen within the US, I get it. I believe it\u2019s disappointing.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Bellew wasn\u2019t inquisitive about the industrial argument.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe difference is these people want the fight to be within the US. That\u2019s the truth of the situation. American boxing\u2019s dead. Nobody cares. Why are we appealing to America? America don\u2019t care about us. We\u2019ve got the very best crowds on the planet. We\u2019ve got probably the most passionate fans on the planet. These are the 2 stalwarts of British boxing. Nobody cares about America. Why do they need it there?\u201d Bellew said as he repeatedly talked over Hearn in the course of the discussion.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
