"He may one day beat everyone and go down in history as the strongest super-bantamweight of all time, but for that to happen he has to beat the best opponents of his era, such as Joshua, Usik and White," the Matchroom Boxing chief told IFL TV. - "Fury can become the second Lennox Lewis, but it's not enough to win three years against the same opponent."

Interestingly, Hearn announced that a duel between Fury and his boxer Joshua could easily be arranged in the near future.

"Anthony Joshua is a television free agent in the UK. He can go for a rematch with Usik with DAZN, BT, ITV or Sky. He can now also box Tyson Fury on BT," said the famous promoter, who, according to the recently signed contract, will represent AJ for the rest of his sporting career.
