Eddie Hearn has proposed a four-man heavyweight tournament which would see Tyson Fury fight Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder take on Oleksandr Usyk.
The promoter's idea comes after an undisputed clash between heavyweight champions Fury and Usyk collapsed earlier this week. The rivals Fury were set to meet each other on April 29 after months of negotiations, with Fury demanding a 70/30 purse split in his favour before also suggesting neither fighter was granted a rematch clause.
Matchroom Boxing boss Hearn is now keen on making Fury vs Joshua, also suggesting former WBC titleholder Wilder should face unified champion Usyk. The promoter would then look to see the winners of the two fights face each other, as he tweeted: "If Fury vs Usyk doesn’t get made...and AJ gets past [Jermaine] Franklin...Fury vs AJ, Wilder vs Usyk - winner vs winner for undisputed."
