The famous promoter believes that the Ukrainian’s time on the boxing throne is coming to an end.
Eddie Hearn has expressed doubt that Oleksandr Usyk can stay at the top of the heavyweight division for long. According to the head of the Matchroom Boxing promotion company, the Ukrainian WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO champion will leave the division immediately after the fight for the title of absolute champion.
“I don’t think he will fight. I doubt Usyk will last another five years and will fight every challenger. He was the undisputed heavyweight champion and unified heavyweight champion. I think that everything will end.
I can only speak now as a fan, because I have no conversation with Usyk on this topic, but I doubt that he will fight after the fight for the absolute. If he wins, I think he’s done with boxing. The problem is that when you get more money, how can you go back to the previous fees?” – quoted the words of Hearn Bad Left Hook.
Remember, earlier it was known that Tyson Fury wants to fight Oleksandr Usyk for the title of absolute champion in February or March.
