“Eddie Hearn has spoken out about Daniel Dubois”, — write: sport.ua
After Oleksandr Usyk’s victory in the rematch with Tyson Fury, IBF world champion Daniel Dubois challenged the Ukrainian to a fight. Usyk agreed. Promoter Eddie Hearn did not like this act.
“It’s a lose-lose situation. What do you want to do? I watched it and slapped my hand in the face, it’s so funny. Personally, I am against it. It was a bit of a wrong time, because then Usyk was given credit. But if that’s a way to beg for a fight, then fine, good luck,” Hearn said.
