'You’ve not only cost me fifty or sixty million dollars, you’ve cost me the biggest fight of all time" - Anthony Joshua's promoter, Eddie Hearn blasts Tyson Fury over failed fight

Anthony Joshua's promoter and agent, Eddie Hearn has angrily blasted Tyson Fury and his team for not playing their parts to ensure that an undisputed clash with Anthony Joshua happened this summer.
Fury has been ordered to fight Deontay Wilder again after a US judge ruled that Wilder is legally due for a third fight and that it must happen before September 15.


The news came after months of negotiations between AJ and Fury's camp for a fight that would crown the first undisputed heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis in 1999.

In light of last week's ruling, Fury will now fight Wilder in Las Vegas on July 24, while Joshua is in negotiations to face his WBO mandatory challenger Oleksandr Usyk.

Hearn, CEO of Matchroom promotions, has spoken of his disappointment when discussing Anthony Joshua's failed undisputed clash against the Gyspy King in August.
