Eddie Hearn Rejects De La Hoya’s 60-40 for Ortiz Jr vs. Ennis, Pushes 55-45 to Winner

Hearn pushed back on De La Hoya’s 60-40 demand, noting the Golden Boy promoter offered “55-45 in favor of Vergil Ortiz” four months ago. “I don’t think that’s fair. I think it’s 50-50,” he said. Hearn added that his promotion, Matchroom, Golden Boy (Oscar's promotion), and DAZN already agreed on a compromise: “55-45 to the winner” for the purse split.
