Eddie Hearn is sure that Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury will eventually take place – but one source close to Gypsy King claims that “he never fights again.” There are many calls to the appearance of Joshua in the ring against the former heavyweight master, but the fight against many money was more unlikely due to the premature pension of Fury after his second defeat Oleksandra Usyk. The 36-year-old announced that in January 2025 he was moving away from the ring after Usyk retained his WBA titles (Super), WBC, WBO, IBO and The Ring Heavywweight Against Fury.
However, between two British warriors for a long time, and the promoter of Joshuzue, Hearn, believes that this can still happen despite road blockades. BBC Sport said: “This is a kind of fight that is probably made over DM between two, text or connection.
“It’s like” Look, do you feel like? “That’s all.
Joshua and Fury were beaten by Usyk in the past. 35-year-old Joshua has been outside the ring since September 2024 after he was knocked out by the current owner of the title IBF Daniel Dubois. Hearn admitted that although there are no titles to fight, the fight would still be an amazing spectacle.
He added: “None of them are masters. Both are huge names, both in the back room, but more importantly, both are still relatively in the perfect side.
“Before AJ lost to Dubois, everyone said it was the best AJ we’ve ever seen. And the Fury never really showed any signs of falling against Uyek. He was just defeated by the first pound number for the pound.”
However, the former promoter of Fury, Bob Arum, is convinced that Gypsy King will never return to the ring, and this time the retirement is indefinite. Fury retired in his career, but Arum is adamant that his elderly customer has passed the need to fight again.
The American lawyer said: “If I were a man to the plants, I would say that he would never fight again. Marvin Hagler had an expression on his face -” a luxurious guy who goes to bed in silk pajamas, does not get up in the morning to do road work. “
“Tyson, really, I don’t think to get up in the morning and perform road work and undergo an experience of economic training when he doesn’t have to do it anymore.”
Despite the retirement of Fury and the time of Joshua away from the ring, the fans are still calling a couple to lace gloves and face each other. Hearn, however, does not seem to be nervous that this fight happened because he thinks that the defeat of the Fury can end Joshue’s career for good.
He added: “If AJ lost again, [the Fury fight] It is not really. Perhaps his career is not, so we are not in any spy. “
Hearn also rejected Arum’s claims that Fury would not fight again because he claimed that the promoter and boxer “never really had the closest relationships.”
“Tyson looks in great shape. I think he said that one day he trains twice a day, so it would be very straightforward for him to go to a 10-week camp,” said Hearn. “Another AJ decision will be very crucial. I hope it is Tyson Fury – we’ll see what the boxes of boxing allow.”

On Wednesday, Lewis Crocker heads to Australia to defend his IBF welterweight world title against Liam Paro for the first time.
Crocker will face Paro at the Pat Rafter Arena in Queensland, live on DAZN in the UK and Kayo Sports in Australia.
Crocker (22-0, 11 KO) became world champion in September, defeating Paddy Donovan twice before winning the rematch by split decision.
Man from Belfast recorded his second victory over Donovan after the first victory in March last year, and his rival was disqualified for hitting him after the bell.
Paro (27-1, 16 KO) is trying to become a world champion in two weight categories, having previously reigned in the super-lightweight division.

The 30-year-old won the title with a unanimous decision victory over Subriel Matias in Puerto Rico before winning the belt in his first defense against Richardson Hitchins.
The Australian has since won twice, overtaking David Papot in his last appearance in September.

McKean meets Taliva
Heavyweight Demsey McKean will look to continue his rebuild when he faces Liam Talivaa for the vacant IBF Pan Pacific title.
McKean (24-2, 16 KO) had his career cut miniature after a last-round loss to Filip Hrgovic, followed by a brutal first-round loss to Moses Itauma.
The 35-year-old southpaw returned to winning ways with back-to-back stoppage victories.
Talivaa (8-2, 4 KO) last won the IBF Oceania-Orient title, defeating Faiga Opelu by first-round stoppage.
Undercard remaining
At cruiserweight, Luke Modini (13-0, 11 KO) will likely need distance to beat Peng Qu (17-2-1, 12 KO), while Riley Candy (8-1, 5 KO) could stop Nathan Watson (11-3, 3 KO) at super middleweight.
Vegas Larfield (13-1, 9 KO) can hand Shamal Ram Anuj (11-8, 8 KO) his fourth defeat in a row in a featherweight clash.
Heavyweight Nelson Asofa-Solomon (2-0, 2 KO) can secure a third straight knockout over debutant George Burgess, and Stevan Ivic (8-0-1, 2 KO) can do the same against Caleb Tialu (3-7, 3 KO), also a heavyweight.
Prospective super welterweight fighter Jack Javed (1-0) should overtake Lance McDonald (1-5-1, 1 KO).
