Promoter Eddie Hearn appreciated the deal between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk, according to which the Briton will receive 70% of the fee, and will also have to transfer one million euros to help Ukraine.
“After Usyk’s statement, Fury no longer had a choice. Although, if the fight had not taken place, then I would have planned the Joshua vs Fury fight for the summer. Fury will receive 70% of the royalties. A million for Ukraine? What is one million for Fury if he gets 60?
“Probably still not the amount that Tyson wanted, but 70 to 30 is a good option for him,” Hearn said.
The fight is expected to take place on April 29.
