Joshua's promoter challenged the result of the Usyk–Fury rematch

Famous British promoter Eddie Hearn has called the rematch between Oleksandr Usyk (23-0, 14 KOs) and Tyson Fury (34-2-1, 24 KOs), which took place on December 21, a draw. The head of Matchroom Boxing noted that he disagreed with the score of 116-112, which was given by all three judges.

Hearn said this on the DAZN Podcast, mmafighting.com reports. Promoter Anthony Joshua (28-4, 25 KOs) noted that the Ukrainian dominated the second half of the fight, but he did not look as strong as the judges decided. The Briton emphasized that he would like to see a third fight between Usyk and Fury.

"I just argued with Sergio Mora, he scored the fight 116-112. I thought the fight would be a draw. The fight was like a chess game. Usyk dominated most of the second half of the fight, but it was incredibly close boxing. I don't feel like Usyk won by 8-4 rounds. But one thing I will say is that all three judges were of the same opinion, and all three judges are high level judges. That's really great," Hearn said.

Earlier, it became known what result was recorded by artificial intelligence. Besides, former champion Anthony Joshua gave his version of the rounds. And the legendary Lennox Lewis admitted that he was not impressed with the fight.

This angered Tyson, who called himself stronger with a difference of at least three rounds. The Briton also staged a demarche after the fight.

At the same time, impressive statistics of the opponents' punches in the fight were published. A photo showed what Fury's face looked like after 100 missed punches from Usyk.

After the victory, the Ukrainian boxer decided on his next opponent and also made a confession about his rematch with Tyson.
