Oleksandr Usyk vs. Tyson Fury - Barry Hearn predicts the winner
Watch Mayweather vs. Gotti III on DAZN (exc. MEX)
Barry Hearn believes that Oleksandr Usyk will win his rematch against Tyson Fury.
The pair fought earlier this year as Usyk became undisputed heavyweight champion in dramatic circumstances, and the pair will run it back in December.
On this occasion, Fury and Usyk will contest three belts, with Daniel Dubois defending the IBF strap on September 21, live on DAZN, against challenger Anthony Joshua.
There is speculation that the winner of those two bouts could then reconvene for the chance to unify all four belts once more, or that Fury and Joshua could finally have their long awaited battle, sometime in 2025.
First though, Joshua vs. Dubois and Usyk vs. Fury need to be resolved, and speaking to Sky Sports, Hearn made his prediction.
He said: “I think personally that Usyk beats Fury in the rematch.”
