On August 20, Anthony will have a rematch with the Ukrainian
Eddie Hearnpromoter of former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshuabelieves that his ward will knock out the WBO / WBA / IBF / IBO heavyweight title holder Oleksandr Usyk in revenge.
At the same time, Hearn expressed confidence in the fight between Joshua and Tyson Fury this year. According to the promoter, a face-to-face meeting between Anthony and Tyson could take place in December.
“Obviously, we are working to win the fight against Usyk. I believe Anthony will do it. If it all works out [в бою с Усиком], we will directly address the meeting with Fury. This fight is going to be the greatest of all time.”
“I think that the fight between Joshua and Fury will take place regardless of the outcome of the fight between Anthony and Usyk. Perhaps we will be able to prepare it by December.”
The second fight between Usyk and Joshua will take place on August 20 in Saudi Arabia.
In Ukraine, the broadcast of the Usyk-Joshua rematch will be hosted by the MEGOGO media service. Oleksandr personally purchased the rights to broadcast his fight with AJ in order to transfer them to Ukrainian broadcasters for free.
Last fall, Usyk defeated Joshua by unanimous decision to become world heavyweight champion for the first time.
