Anthony Joshua is in talks to fight Dillian Whyte on August 12

It comes as Joshua also closes in on a super-fight in Saudi Arabia against Deontay Wilder in December.

So if Whyte were to beat his old rival, he would want to inherit the Middle Eastern blockbuster with Wilder.

But should he sign the deal proposed to him by Hearn, it would tie him down to an immediate rematch with Joshua if he won.

Whyte said on talkSPORT: “Well we had a contract, the contract’s with my lawyer and my lawyers have gone back to him.

“But there’s a lot of things that have been said publicly that are not happening when we’re negotiating.

“They said it was gonna be a standard contract, but it’s not, there’s a lot of things in the contract now that they didn’t say was gonna be in it…

“It’s like this, he said, ‘We’re gonna send a simple contract,’ and then they sent a very complicated contract with a lot of hoops and a lot of hooks to hook me in.

“I don’t want that, I just want a simple contract, simple fight, winner moves on and has a big fight in Saudi Arabia.

“This fight for me is about the opportunity, it’s not about the money, that’s why I’m taking the fight for the money they’ve offered me.

“But now they’re trying to put a rematch clause in there that ties me up for a year and messes everything up, I’m not interested in that.

“I just want a straightforward fight, winner moves on, that’s it.”

Hearn has already claimed there a two other names in the pipeline for Joshua to return against.

But Whyte hit back: “What I don’t like is Eddie’s out there talking nonsense, ‘Oh, we’ve got two other guys waiting to go.’

“Mate, no-one cares, just shut up, no-one cares about who you’ve got ready to go.

“It’s a proper fight, let’s get the fight made, stop talking about all these backup plans.”

Whyte, 35, has chased a rematch with Joshua, 33, ever since he was stopped in seven rounds in 2015.

And he is willing to make a deal happen in time for the August date in less than eight weeks time.

Whyte said: “Because of the fact that I’ve gone back and accepted everything they wanted without no push-back or nothing, they’re thinking, ‘He’s a bit too up for this one.’

“But I wanna go to war, I wanna fight the best people in my time and that’s it.

“He’s one of the best guys around, so I wanna fight him again. I wanna go in there, have a good slugfest with him and knock him out.”
