Comments Thread For: Hearn Does Not Expect Ukraine-Russia Conflict to Have "Any Bearing" on Usyk-Joshua Rematch

[sportbuddha]

Usyk is very likely to be taking up arms with his countryman, I’d imagine boxing is least of his concerns right now and he def will not be fighting AJ if the conflict goes on for much longer, Hearn hasn’t thought this one through.

Aj vs wilder for the belt winner face usyk whenever he comes back

[landotter]

I am fairly sure the rematch will happen when hostilities cease. Cannot imagine any Ukraine fighter will want to look like the guy who left his homeland in a time of national crisis to make a walk at or two.


Also willing to bet the loss of life and security is a way more important conversation in Usyk's life right now

Shutup Hearn, the whole world is banning any sporting events including Russians and rightly so. Every possible pressure should be applied to *****, meanwhile this sleaze bag is in effect supporting him.

Could just let it play out

Shouldn't unless of course England is sitting under a radioactive cloud in May

Growing another arm and fallout-induced, expanded brain capacity is AJ's only hope of winning

Three arms

Usyk is a class act both inside and outside the ring. My heart goes out to him, his family, and his country. I pray his God goes with him.

Like it or not, AJ is the second biggest draw in boxing - every promoter on the planet wants an AJ on their books, including Queensbury and Top Rank. ***n nonsense to say Hearn/Matchroom is done without AJ but obvs turnover won't be as healthy.

Just joshing, Joshua is a half chingaso away from being Amir Khan.
