Joshua’s promoter optimistic about heavyweight unification Hearn: ‘There’s no reason we cannot complete the deal’Eddie Hearn has said he “can’t see any obstacles” which could block a world heavyweight unification title fight between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury next year. “Everyone is saying we need to get this done,” Joshua’s promoter said, while adding he expects the details to be resolved in a “couple of days”.
Soon after Joshua knocked out Kubrat Pulev on Saturday night, Fury went on
Instagram to claim he would dispatch his fellow world champion in three rounds. Joshua, in contrast, chose not to call out Fury during an interview he did with some reluctance on Sky Sports after his most impressive performance in years.
