Eddie Hearn told Boxing Social that he has already received offers from Middle Eastern investors to arrange a rematch between Anthony Joshua (24-2, 21 KOs) and Oleksandr Usik (19-0, 13 KOs).

The promoter of AJ, who lost the WBA, WBO and IBF belts to the Ukrainian on Saturday, said, however, that Britain remains the favourite to host the rematch. Olympic in Kiev will also be considered in this context.

It must be recalled that Joshua already had an opportunity to box in the Middle East - in Saudi Arabia he won the rematch with Andy Ruiz Jr. Joshua vs Usik II fight is scheduled for the first quarter of next year.
