Eddie Hearn believes that he will soon return to heavyweight and one of his fighters will fight for the belt again. At the moment, the WBO, WBA and IBF titles belong to Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs), and the WBC trophy - Tyson Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs).
“I think that the belts will become vacant soon, in the next six to twelve months. It always happens when we have an absolute champion, ”said the head of Matchroom Boxing.
“Now it’s about putting White and AJ in the rankings. AJ can fight for the WBC belt with the winner of the Wilder-Ruiz fight or with Filip Hrgovic. Dillian Whyte could take on Joe Joyce for the WBO title. There are many decisions, because in the end there will be pressure due to mandatory defenses from the sanctioning organizations - this is natural, ”added Hearn, who is now handling the recently requested fight between Filip Hrgovic and Oleksandr Usyk (15-0, 12 KOs) by the International Boxing Federation.
