Hearn: If Joshua beats Usyk we’ll see Fury fight him

The revenge of the Englishman and the Ukrainian will take place on August 20 in Saudi Arabia

Promoter Eddie Hearn named one of the reasons why his ward Anthony Joshua (24-2, 22 KOs) should win in the upcoming rematch with the WBA, WBO and IBF champion Oleksandr Usyk (19-0, 13 KOs).

According to Hearn, Tyson Fury is ready to return to the ring just for the fight against Joshua.

“I don’t think Tyson Fury will fight again if Usyk wins, but I think if AJ wins, and I believe he will, then we will see an undeniable fight between these two,” Hearn said.

“That’s why AJ agrees to this fight.”

The revenge of the Englishman and the Ukrainian will take place on August 20 in Saudi Arabia. Usyk will defend the heavyweight championship belts for the first time, which he took from Anthony last fall.

In April, Fury announced his retirement from boxing after defeating Dillian Whyte, while Tyson has not yet vacated the WBC championship belt.
