Comments Thread For: Hearn: Tyson Fury Against Anthony Joshua Is The Biggest Fight In History Of The Sport

[Corelone]

I bash on Eddy pretty hard for his one way dealings, but this is a money maker, if AJ can get past Usyk in any kind of good shape. Eddy is full of crap, but he can still rake in millions. Don King was worse, but he spoke a lot faster, and his swill was entertaining. Eddy acts like he's quoting scripture.

Eddie Hearn has enjoyed several hearty laughs while reading Tyson Fury's recent comments. The unbeaten WBC heavyweight champion claimed last weekend that he would come out of retirement to fight Anthony Joshua for free if Joshua avenges his loss to Oleksandr Usyk in their rematch August 20 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Fury also stated that he would want a domestic showdown with Joshua to take place at Wembley Stadium in London, where fans could enter free of charge, and to air on free television, not pay-per-view.

This fight has lost its luster. I think we all know who the odds makers will choose to win. It’s not a 50/50 fight by a long shot.

Personally, I think time on top is short and AJ overstayed his welcome. It's up to Usyk to lose, but if he does, Hearn can cash in. Maybe not the greatest, but I'll watch AJ get his head dented. Fury v Usyk in Vegas, both undefeated in sin city, isn't on Eddy's radar. I hear Vegas is back, big. My nephew was married there last month.

Lol, biggest fight in the history of the sport? Surely you jest. I want what he's smoking.

Two years ago it would've been top ten maybe.
Hard to top Thrilla in Manilla, De la Hoya vs Mayweather, Rumble in the Jungle, Mike Tyson vs Lennox Lewis. Cant think of other bigger fights at the moment, but you get the idea.

Agree with your opinion just one ☝️ more Mike Tyson vs Evander Holyfield 1 & 2 even with the bites

[JakeTheBoxer]

Probably yes.

But Joshua will ruin it by losing to Usyk again.

Fury - Joshua would be a huge fight, probably the biggest ever.

Biggest fight in history? What a halfwitted statement. One guy has lost two of his last four fights That fight is a joke except to ****** limeys..

It's the biggest ever UK fight, but AJ losing to a fat guy will always be in the back of everyone's mind.

[thack]

A fight between a guy who was comprehensively beaten by a much smaller man and knocked all over the place by another little bur fat one doesn't qualify him to be in the 'biggest fight in history'. This is simply showing just how ****** and crass a salesman Eddie Hearn really is .We know Edward is desparate to milk even more money out of the causals by coming out with such outrageous ******ity putting his well beaten fighter (twice) in this frame. Joshua is a decent fighter with good power but not the best boxing IQ , chin or stamina .
I'll never forget him coming back to the corner after being floored by Riuz and asking Rob McCracken 'whats he going to do next' ! Fighters, great fights who are involved in the biggest fights do not ask such questions as the are great fighters who only need inspuration from the corner i.e. Angelo Dundee telling Sugar ray at the end of the 13th 'your blowing son' for Leonard to go out and do his thing in the very next round....Imagine SRL asking Dundee 'whats he going to do next' ! Hearn is embarrassing.
