Anthony Joshua WAS OFFICIALLY ALLOWED TO HAVE A REMATCH WITH Alexander Usyk / Usyk STARTED TRAINING Eddie Hearn, the promoter of former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua, hopes that the next opponent of his ward will still be the owner of the WBA, WBO and IBF titles Alexander Usyk. The teams of Joshua and Usyk practically agreed on a rematch, which was to take place in May or June However, Hearn believes that despite all this, Usyk will be able to fight Joshua in June. "Will Joshua's fight against Usyk take place? I really think so. I believe that this fight will be the next one, and it will take place in June," the talkSPORT portal quotes Hearn as saying. Frank Smith, CEO of the Matchroom Boxing promotion company, commented on the words of his colleague Bob Arum that Alexander Usyk was allowed to train for a revash fight with Anthony Joshua Smith said that he has no official information yet, but expressed hope that the fate of the Usyk-Joshua rematch will be clarified this week. "I'm sure we've all seen the same tweet saying that Bob Arum made a comment about it. I think this week we will really be able to see if we can make plans for this fight. Of course, we are waiting. Hopefully we'll get some clarity this week. Joshua wants a rematch with Usyk. He wants to enter the ring and return the belts. This has always been the number one goal, so let's deal with this situation this week," Frank Smith said in an interview with the YouTube channel FIGHT STARS TV. Bob Arum, co-promoter of the WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, does not believe that the Briton will end his career after the fight with Dillian White, and plans to arrange for him to unify with the winner of the rematch between WBA/WBO/IBF title holder Alexander Usyk and Anthony Joshua. "Tyson Fury will end his career when I retire. Perhaps he will perform for a long time after I stop fighting (laughs, - approx.). You know, fighters say that. They probably want to force themselves to make superhuman efforts in the duel that they are about to face. Then they say: "This will be my last fight." But I don't believe it. Of course, I want Fury to fight the winner of the rematch Joshua-Usyk after the fight with Dillian White. If this fight takes place, then Fury can fight the winner in the fall," Bob Arum said in an interview with the YouTube channel Combat Sports on Fanatics View. Former world champion in two weight categories David Haye believes that at the peak of his career he could have defeated all the current heavyweight leaders - Tyson Fury, Alexander Usyk, Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder. "In my best years, I would have passed all the current heavyweight tops. Tyson Fury is extremely agile for a big guy. Alexander Usyk is left-handed, it would be hard to approach him. Anthony Joshua is incredibly powerful, and if he gives free rein to his hands in combination, then you will be in big trouble. If Deontay Wilder hits you anywhere, you're in trouble. They all have very good attributes," said David Haye. Former heavyweight title contender Kubrat Pulev said he was not surprised by the victory of the current WBA, WBO and IBF title holder Alexander Usyk over Anthony Joshua. The Bulgarian boxer is convinced that if Usyk and Joshua have a rematch, then this time the Ukrainian will win an early victory. "I wasn't surprised by the result of their fight. There's nothing special about Joshua. I lost to him because I was sick with covid, I wasn't preparing for the fight. Of course, it's my fault, but there's nothing special about it. I knew he would never come back the way he was before. The tendril is completely different. In the rematch, Usyk will probably knock out Joshua, and Anthony knows about it. I'm ready to have a rematch with Joshua. Now I'm going to have a fight, and then I'm ready to fight any opponent. It doesn't matter who it is. I have a lot of power, I have a lot of experience, I am ready. This is my time," Kubrat Pulev said in an interview with the YouTube
