“He Will Knock Tyson Fury Out” – Eddie Hearn Makes a Bold Statement

Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua is perhaps the biggest fight to make in heavyweight boxing right now. There are several ways the fight can go down. However, Joshua’s promoter believes that there is only one inevitable outcome.

Joshua and Fury have always been rumored to go against each other, citing it as the greatest heavyweight battle of the modern era. That said, the matchup is still far from materializing.

Yet that hasn’t stopped the promoters from trying to find out a way. Matchroom Sport CEO Eddie Hearn has always been open to the matchup. It is a fight that will bring him a lot in the pot. But Hearn also believes that Joshua will defeat the undefeated ‘Gypsy King.’

Eddie Hearn puts his money on Anthony Joshua

While interacting with IFL TV, Hearn has clarified that Joshua vs Fury is the biggest matchup in the history of boxing. The British promoter aims to earn more than $100 million from the event.

“Is there a bigger fight in world boxing? Absolutely not. How much money is there when these two fights? Hundreds of millions of dollars. So you can’t really go one way,” Hearn said.

It is alluring to hear that Eddie Hearn is confident about Joshua’s win over Fury. Not only that, but he also believes that ‘AJ’ will knockout ‘The Gypsy King’ to notch his win.

“What do you think I want? Money and the glory and success. And all three of those come from that fight, [because] he will knock Tyson Fury out.”

Both World champions are currently contracted to fight their respective opponents in Deontay Wilder and Kubrat Pulev. Tyson Fury will defend his WBC strap against Wilder, while Joshua will put his WBA, WBO, IBF, and IBO belts on the line against Kubrat Pulev.

After their respective battles, the heavyweight matchup might happen. Thus, Fury vs Joshua is still off the charts for now. However, if the duo wants it to happen, boxing fans can witness the heavyweight feud for sure.
