Eddie Hearn believes Tyson Fury would only return for an undisputed clash against Anthony Joshua as he is "worried" about fighting Oleksandr Usyk.
Fury announced his retirement from boxing after making the last defence of his heavyweight title against Dillian Whyte in April, knocking out his domestic rival in the sixth round. 'The Gypsy King' has insisted he is done with the sport despite an undisputed fight against the winner of Usyk's rematch with Joshua being on the table for him.
Hearn claims that Fury was offered a fight against Usyk before his clash with WBC mandatory challenger Whyte, but he turned it down. The promoter told iFL TV : "[Fury] had the chance to fight Usyk before DIllian Whyte and he didn't want to fight him for the undisputed title.
