Krassyuk Wants To Make Joshua Vs. Fury

Oleksandr Usyk’s ex-promoter, Alexander Krassyuk, is willing to help Eddie Hearn and Anthony Joshua make the Tyson Fury fight.

Krassyuk has worked alongside Hearn and Frank Warren to make two fights against Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury. He presided over Usyk’s dominance as he beat both men on two occasions on his way to becoming undisputed at heavyweight. Usyk also defeated Daniel Dubois, another one of Warren’s fighters, to become undisputed at heavyweight for a second time. While Fury is currently retired, Krassyuk is offering his help in trying to convince The Gypsy King to take the fight. 

“AJ has the best promoter behind him (Eddie Hearn). I treat them both like brothers, and if I can be helpful, I will always be willing,” Krassyuk said 

Will It Happen?

Nevertheless, the chances of that fight happening are slim. Fury recently said that he is not going to come out of retirement, although The Gypsy King has shown previously that he can reverse his decision. He retired after beating Dillian Whyte, only to then come out of retirement to eventually secure the two Oleksandr Usyk fights. Fury did state, though, he would only return for Usyk.

“If I was going to come back, I’d come back for Usyk. In England. That’s the one I want immediately, that would be the fight I want next. My last fight was a clear victory for The Gypsy King. I want a fair fight, I don’t want any favors, I want a fair fight and a fair result. Which I know I didn’t get. I thought I won it by five rounds. I watched it 250 times. Each way I never see it as a way for him to win,” Fury revealed

However, at this time Fury is preoccupied with other matters. The boxer shared pictures of him getting married to his wife, Paris Fury, in France for the third time.
