Anthony Joshua scraps rematch clause and tells Dillian Whyte to sign
Despite this, the promoter is still sceptical over whether Whyte will put pen to paper.
"The worry I have is I sent that email and ten minutes later Sky are running the story," Hearn said, referencing the fact that the details were quickly made public."The great news now is they have the contract, no rematch clause, August 12, nothing in the contract that's gonna cause anyone any problems, let's see."We want to announce on Saturday."
It's known that AJ is also in advanced talks to face Deontay Wilder in Saudi Arabia in December, but wants to face Whyte in the meantime. Hearn updated: "We have meetings tonight and tomorrow with Saudi representatives to try and close AJ vs Wilder."We hope that we can agree terms while they're here, finalise the money and move forward with that fight.
