Hearn, speaking on Matchroom's YouTube channel, thinks Fury provided the wrong information after the fight.

But he's now talked up the possiblity of Fury fighting Anthony Joshua later in the year, admitting it rests in the hands of His Excellency Turki Al-Sheikh.

“So much could happen," the boxing promoter said.

“I’ve seen a lot of people talk about ‘great time for Usyk to retire’. That’s very kind of them, but also there’s a lot of money to be made in a rematch, and it was a good performance from him, so he might be ready for that [rematch].

“He’s been training for a long time. We’re about to hit June.


"You’d have to start training in August, end of July. It probably gives him five or six weeks off.

"Tyson Fury said Usyk broke his jaw; I don’t think that’s true, but it was a high-maintenance fight."

He continued: “And Fury’s gonna wanna rest.

"Don’t forget, Fury’s come out of the [Francis] Ngannou fight [in October], gone into camp for the first date [in February].

"That was postponed, he got cut, he stayed in camp. He’s trained for a long time.


“I don’t think Tyson Fury is gonna be over the moon with five or six weeks off, but that’s the obligation, there’s a lot of money.

"Who knows? If Usyk’s injured, can’t make the date, do you make Fury against Joshua – with the winner fighting Usyk?

"I mean the answer for me is, ‘Yes, please.’

“But it’s down to His Excellency [Turki Al-Sheikh] and the fighters to make the decisions.

"They have a contracted rematch, but they have to be physically able to make that date, and I guess that’s the next obstacle to overcome.”
