Via Charles Brun: Eddie Hearn has no objection to Tyson Fury’s comments about wanting to fight Anthony Joshua for free for the undisputed heavyweight clash.
Hearn says that when the time comes for Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs) to face Joshua, he will find a way to squeeze “Every dollar”“He can come out of that fight.
As for Fury’s comments about fighting Joshua for free, that’s typical trolling he’s been doing for years. Fury loves getting a reaction from the boxing public, and the only way he can do that is to say stupid things like that.
Besides, Fury’s interviews are often dull, with him patting himself on the back for one achievement or another. Fury says he’s retired, but he’s still holding his WBC belt, which means he’s just pulling people’s legs by retiring.
For Fury to keep saying he’s retired, it’s like someone telling a joke that’s no longer funny. It’s just more troll stuff from Fury, but weak and completely transparent. He needs to find some new material because he is too boring to listen to.
“Listen, AJ has to take care of the business; it’s a very difficult task, but if and when he does, Tyson Fury against Joshua isn’t the biggest fight in boxing; it was the biggest battle EVER in the history of the sport“Eddie Hearn said to DAZN Boxing show.
“And I will make sure we do the right job since he turned pro for him,” Hearn continued. “By the way, Tyson Fury will FIX every dollar from that fight Hearn said.
So that’s it. Fury will “milk” every last penny he can get his hands on in a fight with Joshua, and he’s just babbling about fighting for free.
At this point, the only way Fury will fight Joshua is if he’s ready to face him after he loses to Oleksandr Usyk next month on August 20.
It would be weird for Fury to fight AJ and he’ll have to take another defeat, but the fight will still make ‘The Gypsy King’ a lot of money.
You could argue that Fury would still end up with more fights against Joshua to avoid losing than he would against Usyk winning. There is a huge base of boxing fans, both casual and heavyweight, who want to see Fury and Joshua fight in any circumstances.
“It’s not as big, it’s not as big, but it’s still an undisputed fight,” Hearn said when asked if the fight between Oleksandr Usyk and Fury would be a big one.
“You have to ask yourself, what do you want? I think Fury is a historian; I think he wanted a legacy; I really do sincerely. I think it’s unquestionable that he wants to, but if the money isn’t right, he’s not going to do it,” Hearn said of Fury not going to fight Usyk if the payday isn’t big enough for him. he.
