Eddie Hearn picks Tyson Fury to defeat Oleksandr Usyk on points on Saturday night in their bout DAZN PPV Return match in Riyadh. Matchroom promoter Hearn is quite open about why he picked England-born Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs) to win, saying it was because “British” And because “Whatever may come” It is a symbol of the huge fight against Anthony Joshua.
Money talks
the Boxing Foundation Fury, 36, wants to win this fight because having him as unified heavyweight champion is good for business. Anger represents money. Therefore, it is not surprising that nothing is certain hopelessness To defeat Usyk.
Lets you know what Usyk faces Saturday night. He's in the same position as Fury's previous opponents, who appeared to defeat him but had their victories taken away from them. Tyson should have four defeats on his resume, not one. It's hard to beat a fighter when he's as popular as Fury.
You have to give Hearn credit for being transparent about his bias, even if he is Self service. There is a lot of skill in the fight between the Matchroom-promoted Joshua, who would make the Fury fight if he is victorious on Saturday night against WBA, WBC and WBO heavyweight champion Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) at Kingdom Arena in Riyadh.
Honesty or self-interest?
“I think people forget how close the fight is. It's hard not to pick Oleksandr Usyk for this fight, but I took the two-round limit on Oleksandr Usyk. Obviously that was strange for these durable guys,” Eddie Hearn said. Boxing in the match halltalks about the first fight between Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk earlier this year on May 18.
“I'm expecting another close fight on Saturday. I'm going with Tyson Fury for a few reasons. I'm channeling my inner karma into him, because of what might obviously come (the huge Anthony Joshua fight), and the fact that we're British too.
If Hearn has nothing to gain from Fury's win on Saturday, it will be interesting to see if he still sees it as a winner. My guess is no. Even with his massive 40-pound size advantage, Fury is not on the same level of talent as Usyk, nor does he look like the same physical fighter heading into a rematch as he did seven months ago when he lost a 12-round split decision.
“I have a sneaky feeling. I saw things yesterday, and I thought he (Fury) looked really comfortable. Usyk speaks with a real arrogance, and it's completely different this time. I don't know if this is good or bad, but I'm going to pick Tyson Fury and I'm going to take on Tyson Fury,” Hearn said. On the points.
