Eddie Hearn claims that whatever the outcome of the rematch with Oleksandr Usyk (19-0, 13 KOs) his boxer Anthony Joshua (24-2, 22 KOs) will return to the ring in December. And among his possible opponents so far there is only one name.

According to AJ, he always feels underestimated, especially now, when the whole world is praising achievements Tyson Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs). If the 2012 Olympic heavyweight champion takes revenge on Usyk on August 20, he will regain the IBF, WBA and WBO belts and become a world professional champion for the third time. After that, he will be ready to face Fury.

“If AJ beats Usyk in the second fight, then he will only need Fury and all the belts. It will be the biggest fight in boxing history,” Hearn said.
