Eddie Hearn has revealed he will consider offering the winner of Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder’s rematch an equal split of the purse to face Anthony Joshua.
Talks of a fight between Joshua and Wilder for the heavyweight undisputed crown have rumbled on for the best part of two years while Fury has often spoken about his desire to face his compatriot in a heavyweight battle of Britain.
Hearn has claimed that both Wilder and Fury have rebuffed offers to face Joshua in the past, but he believes that they have reached a point now where the fight simply has to happen.
‘For once I agree with my esteemed colleague [Frank] Mr Warren, the winner has to fight Anthony Joshua, there’s no doubt about it,’ Joshua’s promoter told TalkSPORT.
