Eddie Hearns just lost the AJ roadblock!

[Bunch Pag]

Hearn said a few days ago that AJ will fight Fury for unification in 2021 and I said he either Hearn knows he's telling Whyte to hang fire or he doesn't believe Whyte will beat Povetkin...

Whichever way I believe Hearn is delighted with tonight's result. Whyte reflects and calls in his rematch and Hearn gets the green light for the double header..

Hearn will talk sympathetically towards Whyte in his interview but he won't be able to hide the excitement in his voice....

Povetkin is not the mandatory, only Whyte was going to be forced on Fury by winning. Hearn has just said exactly the same on Sky. How do you lot watch Boxing without realising what is going on?

Hearn said on Sky his plan is to try to get the rematch sorted before the end of the year, so they can still force the mandatory on Fury in the Spring, provided Dillian wins the rematch. Embarrassing from Hearn. Refused point blank to respond when asked about Fury-AJ. Pretty much said, "No comment!"

I don`t know what are you guys celebrating, there will be a rematch, Whyte will probably win. Nothing much changed.

C'mon now. We need Fury-AJ. No more messing about, get it set in stone for early next year. Whyte isn't near that level, that is clear to see.
