, ‘He’s a lot different in person’ – Eddie Hearn likes the REAL Tyson Fury and gives rare insight into their relationship

But behind the scenes the pair appear to enjoy a more cordial relationship as Hearn claimed Fury even rings him up from time to time.

He told iFL TV: “I get a couple of missed calls when he is out and about.

“I think there was once when he was in London with Chisora recently and I saw him when he was in his hotel in Vegas.

“I actually like Tyson Fury I don’t mind him at all. He is a lot different in person than what you see on social media and is actually a very knowledgable boxing head.

“Last time I was with him he actually went through our entire stable, I have no problem with him.”

Hearn recently lost the purse bid for Fury’s fight with Dillian Whyte, which was won by Frank Warren, who offered £30.6million.

The Matchroom Boxing boss predicted the British grudge match between the 33-year-old’s at Wembley Stadium on April 23 may not sell out.

But within 90 minutes, over 85,000 tickets were sold leading to more being requested.

Fury sent Hearn a clip of his prediction to make fun of his rival – but the matchmaker was too busy at Canelo Alvarez’s recent press conference.

Hearn said: “I do find it funny that they think of me I am over here busy doing Canelo, when he sent me that video.

“I just replied with that head-to-head of Canelo and said, ‘Sorry I am busy at the moment’.”
