Eddie Hearn and Jake Paul settle $100m lawsuit over bribery claims involving Anthony Joshua fight
The two have now got to work together on an event
JAKE PAUL and Eddie Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing have settled their legal case out of court.
Hearn filed a lawsuit against Paul in 2022 after the American claimed judge Glenn Feldman was “getting paid money by Matchroom Boxing.”

Paul slammed Feldman’s scoring of Anthony Joshua’s rematch loss to Oleksandr Usyk and Katie Taylor’s win over Amanda Serrano – who he promotes.
Paul told iFL TV in a now-deleted interview: “I still think Amanda Serrano won the fight.
“And then you see how this judge Glenn Feldman, who had the biggest gap between Taylor and Serrano.
“Everyone pretty much had it a draw … a draw or that Amanda won. But there’s this judge, Glenn Feldman, who scored it such a big gap for Taylor, gave rounds that Amanda clearly won, to Taylor
“Usyk had a runaway victory, clearly won the fight. This judge, Glenn Feldman, gives it to Anthony Joshua?
“It’s like a repeated crime here. This type of s***, I’m going to call it out here in boxing because it’s bulls***.
“Clearly, this guy is getting paid money by Matchroom Boxing.”
Matchroom took legal action days after the interview was published – seeking $100m (£92m) in damages in a suit later joined by Feldman.
Paul then countersued in October 2024 after failing to get the Matchroom suit dismissed by a New York judge a month beforehand.
But attorneys for both parties filed a joint dismissal after an undisclosed settlement was reached, first reported by BoxingScene.

Per a filing on Monday with the United States District Court, Southern District of New York: “It is hereby stipulated and agreed, by the undersigned counsel of record for the parties herein, pursuant to Rule 41(a)(1)(ii) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, that the above-captioned action is dismissed with prejudice and without costs or fees to either party.”
A separate filing on March 18 read: “Plaintiffs Matchroom Boxing Limited (“Matchroom”) and Edward John Hearn (“Hearn”), Plaintiff-Intervenor Glenn Feldman (“Feldman”) (collectively the “Plaintiffs”), and Defendant Jake Paul (“Paul”) (collectively referred to herein as the “Parties”) jointly submit this letter to notify the Court that the Parties have entered into a Settlement Agreement.
“Pursuant to the terms thereof, the Parties expect to file a Stipulation of Dismissal on or before March 31, 2025.”
It comes as Matchroom and Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions prepare to co-promote Taylor’s trilogy fight with Serrano on July 11 in New York.
The all-women’s Madison Square Garden card will be streamed on Netflix – the platform’s second boxing event.
Paul, 28, headlined the first for his controversial fight against Mike Tyson, 58, which he won on points with over 100 MILLION watching on Netflix.
