Eddie Hearn is eager to reignite the possibility of a Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua fight, especially with the uncertainty surrounding Fury’s retirement. Hearn’s idea of giving Fury an ultimatum could be a way to put pressure on him to either commit to a comeback or miss out on the chance to make a huge fight.
Joshua, who has had a bit of a rocky patch lately with his loss to Daniel Dubois, seems determined to reclaim the heavyweight title and is still eyeing a showdown with Fury, though it’s clear he has other potential opponents as well, like Wilder or Bakole. Hearn’s words suggest he’s pushing Joshua to pursue the best possible path to another world title shot, and the biggest opportunity remains Fury.
It’s an interesting situation with Fury’s retirement declaration, especially since it left so many fans hanging when it comes to the long-awaited British clash with Joshua. Do you think Fury will come out of retirement for this fight, or has that ship sailed?
