A powerful American promoter has said why a duel between British boxers never happened.
Bob Arum blames Eddie Hearn for disrupting the Fury-Joshua fight. According to the promoter of the WBC heavyweight champion, at first his colleague did not want to organize a fight between British boxers.
At the same time, the American functionary said that he did not know the reasons for such a decision on Hearn’s part.
“The fight with Anthony Joshua was supposed to be organized, but Hearn, who I consider a good promoter, for some reason refused to cooperate and finish the deal. I can guess why he did it, but I don’t have anything exact answer. It is what it is.
Joshua wants this fight because he is a fighter, but Eddie Hearn feels that right now this fight will not be suitable. I could think of many reasons, but he certainly wouldn’t tell me anything. But one thing I’m sure of is that Eddie didn’t want Joshua to fight Tyson right now,” said Arum. Boxing Scene.
It will be remembered that Tyson Fury previously said that the fight with Joshua will not happen and you can forget about him.
