British promoter Eddie Hearn spoke out about the decision of former world heavyweight champion Alexander Usik to vacate his belts. The functionary said that now the division will become more exciting, and other boxers will get new chances. “This is great news for the contenders and, frankly, for the entire division, because I think there are a lot of interesting things ahead of us. If you look at the WBA, Murat Gassiev and Jarrell Miller could meet for the title.. IBF has Frank Sanchez. Fabio Wardley and Daniel Dubois will also fight for the WBO title. There is also Moses Ithauma. Perhaps Filip Hrgovic will fight for the vacant belt. There may be a situation where there will be four world champions at once, and I’m quite happy with that. The main thing is that they fight each other.

Plus, these aren't the biggest stars, so we could see unification fights and some really great rivalries. And the winner of the Fury-Joshua fight will want to fight for the belt. So, in my opinion, all this makes the division even more interesting,” Hearn told Seconds Out. Earlier, Usyk shared his future plans after giving up his titles.. After Usyk renounced his titles, Kabayel was officially recognized as the WBC champion. News on Telegram and WhatsApp. Subscribe to our channels https://t. me/korrespondentnet and WhatsApp.
