Eddie Hearn, the promoter of former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua, shared his thoughts on the possible organization of a fight against another former title holder in the division, Tyson Fury..
According to AJ’s representative, now there is no need to put pressure on a potential opponent, but we need to give him time to recover after his defeat in the rematch with Oleksandr Usyk, after which it will be possible to begin negotiations on the next fight.
" Give me a bigger fight? There is no such thing.
I don't know if this will happen. There have been no discussions yet. Fury needs to recover from defeat and decide after the break what he wants to do. If he wants to fight AJ, the fight will happen immediately. Let's see.
I don't think now is the time to start pushing Tyson Fury. Don't forget, he lost on December 21st, so give him a few weeks to cool down.
Sooner or later, in the coming weeks, we will want to make a plan for Anthony Joshua. That’s when negotiations will begin with Frank Warren, Spencer Brown and Turki Al ash-Sheikh and it will be said: “We want to organize the AJ-Fury fight, what do you think? “We will build on this,” Hearn said in a comment to The Stomping Ground.
Previously, the promoter announced the date and opponent of Joshua's next fight.
