According to Boxing Social, Eddie Hearn will have to meet with Alexander Krasyuk, the promoter of Oleksandr Usyk (19-0, 13 KOs) to agree on the details of his rematch with Anthony Joshua (24-2, 22 KOs).

The Ukrainian defeated the Englishman in September last year, and now he will defend the IBF, WBA and WBO heavyweight belts in the UK. Negotiations should decide exactly where and when this duel will take place.

“AJ is thrilled with this rematch. Earlier, I mentioned other options to him several times, but he wanted a second fight with Usyk. Therefore, our attention is now focused only on this. This week I will meet with Alexander Krasyuk. I believe that this revenge will take place in May, ”Hearn said.
