Eddie Hearn Uses Tom Aspinall as Pawn in Feud with Dana White

Dana White's move from UFC into professional boxing has created significant turbulence in the boxing world. White, aiming to build Zuffa Boxing into a major force, has already clashed with Matchroom Boxing president Eddie Hearn.

After White poached Conor Benn from Matchroom with a lucrative offer, Hearn responded with an eye-for-an-eye strategy. In early March, Hearn convinced UFC heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall to sign with Matchroom's talent agency, gaining a strategic edge in the ongoing rivalry.

The verbal sparring between White and Hearn continues to escalate as both power brokers battle for influence in the combat sports landscape.
