Hearn told who and why he will root for in the Usyk-Fury fight

Promoter of former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua Eddie Hearn says he will support Tyson Fury in the upcoming battle against Alexandra Usika.

ā€œImagine if Joshua knocks out Ngannou and Fury beats Usyk, then AJā€™s fight with Tyson will be right on the platter. This is the biggest fight in boxing history. That's why IĀ want Fury to win. I actually love Usyk and respect him very much, but for AJā€™s sake I want Tyson to win this fight.

IĀ want Fury to become the undisputed champion. And then, if the IBF title becomes vacant, then perhaps Joshua will fight Hrgovic in the summer. ā€œI know Usyk and Fury have a two-fight deal, but letā€™s be honest, there will be a lot of pressure to get the Joshua-Fury fight done,ā€ Hearn said in an interview with the Boxing News YouTube channel.

Let us remind you that the fight between Fury and Usik will take place on February 17 in Riyadh.
