Promoter Eddie Hearn disagrees with the result of Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury 's second fight, insisting that Saturday's bout should've been a draw.
"I thought I won that fight," the Brit argued. "I thought I won both fights but I'm going home with two losses on my record. There's not much I can do about it. I can just fight my heart out. I will believe til the day I die that I won that fight." "I thought Usyk nicked the last round, I had it as a draw but you know there seems to be a lot of people that had Usyk the winner, I think is that the overall? I just felt like there was a lot of close rounds.''
''There's only one fight for Fury, which is AJ," Hearn added. "But there's no point, it's not the time to start calling the fight out. You don't know what Fury's going to do, maybe he doesn't want to fight again.
