Hearn spoke about the fight between Usyk and Fury

British promoter Eddie Hearn wished Tyson Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs) a victory over Oleksandr Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) in the boxers' rematch. The representative of Anthony Joshua (28-4, 25 KOs) noted that he would not bet a cent on the triumph of the Gypsy King, as the Manchester native is called.

Hearn said this in an interview with the YouTube channel iFL TV, DAZN reports. According to the head of the Matchroom Boxing promotional company, Fury was very unlucky to have Usyk as his opponent, who is superior to the rest of the heavyweights in terms of his boxing skills.

"I have no idea how to beat Usyk, but Tyson Fury is a very smart fighter. He has smart people in his corner, and he's very high in terms of IQ in boxing. Unfortunately for him, so is Oleksandr Usyk. So my money, especially considering his victory in the first fight, I will always put on Oleksandr Usyk. My heart wants to see Tyson Fury win. Not only because he is British, but also because I want to organize a fight between Joshua and him. I would love to see that, but I see Fury as an underdog in a fight with Usyk," Hearn said.
