Eddie Hearn believes that the British boxer should not rest for a long time after losing to Usyk.
Anthony Joshua’s break after losing to Oleksandr Usyk was short-lived, and the Briton’s team is already planning his next fight. According to the British promoter – Eddie Hearn, his ward is in good condition, and therefore will not rest for a long time.
Joshua will soon have a rematch against Dillian Whyte.
“Right now the worst thing for AJ is a long downtime. Physically he wants to fight, mentally Anthony is pulling after the loss but he still has 4-5 weeks before he returns to training camp.
Joshua wants to stay active and the only person making decisions about his fight in December is himself. For my part, I feel he is ready. I think this is a good idea. Since yesterday, our only talk is that we will arrange a match in December.
The fight I want and Joshua wants is against Dillian Whyte. This is the biggest fight. It won’t take place in December, but it’s a big match in the stadium for next year. Their first fight was epic and the second one will be even better,” Hearn was quoted as saying by talkSPORT.
Note that Joshua and White met in the ring in 2015 and then Anthony defeated his opponent by technical knockout in the seventh round.
It can be remembered that in his last fight, Joshua again lost to the Ukrainian world heavyweight champion, Oleksandr Usyk.
