Comments Thread For: Hearn: We'll Either Make Deal For Joshua-Usyk Or AJ Will Vacate; Won't Go To Purse Bid

Hearn will never put Joshua in a fight without a rematch clause. It's best he vacates to stop the Hearn/Joshua greed in the Heavyweight Division. Ussyk v Joyce for WBO title woukd be good.

How about **** the WBO. Having 4 belts means absolutely nothing these days. The real champion is Fury period.

Oh yeah muck up the heavyweight picture even more with a cruiserweight who's best fight at heavyweight is Chisora. So glad you don't make the ****in rules.

If he vacates it will look awful. SUPREMELY ****ing awful.

Hearn's ****lickers actually seemed to have gone harder to bat for Hearn and AJ since the loss to Ruiz and subsequent comeback...however I dont feel the general boxing public see things the same way. Hearn knows that too. If Joshua vacates his credibility among both casuals and those in America would be shot to pieces.

Usyk is good but his lack of punching power makes him non threatening to AJ. There's no reason to avoid this fight, unless AJ doesn't have any balls.

Just watched the chisora fight and there was a huge difference in power between the real heavyweight chisora and Usyk.

Usyk had decent power at cruiser but it has not carried up.

He had to change some of his style with his loss of power. He used to like to mix up soft punches and normal punches to keep the opponent guessing and not take the shots serious but now with no power and chisora not showing him any respect for the power, he had to abandon that style and use full power every time. That is one less trick he can use now.

For AJ to not take the Usyk fight he has to be a complete bish. his chances of getting KO'd are extremely small. He should be able to win pretty easily.

Well you gotta be careful with purse bids as we've seen lately and as Loma found out, it's always wise to have a rematch clause.

This is what I love about this forum - as soon as a thread comes on with the name Hearn or Joshua on it, the hate starts coming.

They hate, yet they still buy the PPV or pay DAZN subscription fee.

[OnlytheTruth]

No way that Usyk will risk going to purse bid. Lets not forget that Usyk wants "more money". All Eddie has to do is dangle that carrot of the title vacation to get the signature.

All you haters saying no rematch clauses in contracts. What do you think that they won't want to risk Undisputed and screw themselves out of tens of millions? Did you all not forget that boxing is a business first, sport second???

It's clear as day they didn't want Fury or Wilder and now he's ducking Usyk.

A lot of simpletons on this platform

Not quite sure what the tactics are behind this move, Hearn must now how? This move will be portrayed.

Vacating his belts is not really helping Anthony Joshua.

I would say, that Joshua has won the first battle with Tyson Fury. In the public opinion? Joshua has gained respect.

But if he now vacates one of his belts, to avoid a fight with Usyk 'Fury will once again be back on top'.
