The Anthony Joshua vs. Tyson Fury fight has dragged on for a few months now. While many fans and critics showed their frustration, Matchroom’s Eddie Hearn remained confident. And Hearn’s latest interaction with Fury suggests everything is finalized.
The two fighters signed a contract back in March. However, issues with the location and date have delayed a final announcement. As a result, Eddie Hearn faced immense criticism and people feared the bout would get canceled. However, fans may finally get to witness the huge fight between the heavyweight champions.
The 30-0-1 boxer ran into Eddie Hearn while in Dallas for the Canelo Alvarez vs. Billy Joe Saunders fight. Salvador Rodriguez from ESPN posted the video to his Twitter. In the video, Fury asked Hearn, “Got it done then, mush?”
