As Anthony Joshua prepares himself to tackle Daniel Dubois this weekend for the IBF heavyweight title, he’s been fairly open about eager to combat the winner within the rematch of Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury. Usyk has already twice crushed Joshua, who nonetheless desires to avenge these shortcomings, however his Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn says he believes Fury can pull off the win within the sequel.
“I’m a bit nearer to Workforce Fury nowadays and I feel they undoubtedly consider Tyson can be in a a lot better place and situation for this rematch,” Hearn mentioned. “Sarcastically I’ve by no means wager towards Tyson Fury apart from, I feel, the final Usyk combat and I — I feel he can do it, I actually do.
“It’s going to be attention-grabbing how a lot that combat took out of each, as a result of when Usyk walked again to the altering room he might hardly arise, he was being held up. Fury was all over within the ninth spherical. So it simply goes to point out who’s going to come back out of that combat with extra miles on the clock, and I feel Tyson Fury can do it. However for us we’ve received to get our job accomplished on Saturday after which we will sit up for being ringside on December twenty first.”
Clearly earlier than both Joshua or Hearn can sit up for a possible combat of the Usyk vs Fury winner, they’ll first want to ensure they arrive out on high this weekend towards Dubois.
