How many belts does fury have?

[@idontplay9559]

Addyy Brown belts mean nothing. Floyd has no belts. Mike Tyson has no belts for big fights. Pac doesn’t need belts. Canelo had no belts vs GGG. Belts are more important for holding up your pants.

[@chewyy9991]

There is no AJ vs Wilder or Fury in 2019. Wilder Fury will rematch and he winner will have to fight Brezeale as he has been mandatory for a while and AJ will probably fight Whyte in April and then will have to fight one of his mandatories in his 2nd fight of the year

[@jamesheads5789]

it wouldnt of happened anyway as matchroom do not want it. if fury wins there will be no way AJ will step up to him in 2019 they will wait i think whyte would be more likely to face fury before AJ

[@albertsteptoe3710]

Fury v aj will never happen as Eddie and his old man 👴 think no one deserves more than 25 percent against their cash card . But everyone in boxing knows fury won’t entertain them if it’s not a 50/50 split and has said so on a number of occasions. And let’s be honest here he still is the number one . He won last week and was robbed and aj only has they belts due to the fact fury beat Vladimir to make them available. Simple .

[@boxinguniverse1064]

Wow!!! you have broken some huge news in this comments section. You are repeating what Hearn has said in this interview.

[@gladifly]

Imagine how fine tuned Fury will be for 2020 against Joshua. Joshua will not improve any further.

[@josephcassidy1854]

Fury vs AJ by end of 2019 will defo happen. Won’t be for undisputed tho as I can guarantee AJ vacates the IBF belt leading to Pulev vs Whyte for the IBF belt

I’m not saying anything bad about AJ but does Hearn really think that 90,000 people would come out to see AJ in the US? And AJ’s fights cost like £20 on PPV whereas this fight was like £54 so the PPV stats are hard to compare. Fury is on AJ’s trail

[@koswin7]

Aj does have the balls to fight anywhere else apart from England

[@mikeypc3592]

90,000 dont come out to watch anyone in the US!

[@ptb2008]

When did he say 90k would go to see him in the US? But when have 90k US boxing fans travelled either? You don't seem to realise how much the TV companies take from PPV before the fighters get paid. It was 250k PPV buys to break even in this fight.

[@robertdavis5969]

ptb2008 All I’m saying is it’s easy for Hearn to discredit the event as far as ticket sales go when Fury’s fighting in someone else’s back garden. AJ wouldn’t do too much better... And I didn’t say anything about their earnings, I just mean that it’s not as easy a fight to sell when the draw (Fury) is from a country where it will be 5am when the fight is on... AJ is a house cat who’s audience is 98% UK audience, so of course he’ll do more ticket sales and PPV buys in his own country

[@ptb2008]

STOP! The only reason this was PPV was because of Fury. NOT Wilder. If AJ fought Wilder in the US or UK it would do 1 million, but that AGAIN is NOT because of Wilder.

[@genghiskhan13]

Worst I’ve seen Eddie that with his phone banging stats out tut tut

[@tonydew440]

Hearn says Wilder was terrible against Fury, he also said Klitschko was awful against Fury. They were not awful because they both had bad days, they were made to look awful because they were up against Tyson Fury who showed them both up. I believe Wilder only caught Fury twice because Fury had been out the ring for too long. So the way Eddie Hearn is talking, he must think Joshua will hit Fury with 20 + shots a round?. Eddie Hearn until we see your man fight Ortiz, Fury or Wilder you don't now nothing to what Joshua can do. If Chisora can knock out Takam and Joshua couldn't then how will he knock out Tyson Fury

[@1986-v1z]

Kugan well done for telling Eddie how it is, was a great fight and if that was Joshua he would of been saying it was the best ever if he’s boy climbed off the canvas in the 12th round and didn’t lose the fight! Respect ✊🏻

Look at the numbers from the Fury fight. If the offer was genuine they'd be losing 10s of millions

[@DeletedScenes312]

BT offered Sky $50m for the rights to the fight. The money was never going to Joshua. Frank Warren said so himself in one of his IFL interviews.

[@BobMarley-nx6re]

DeletedScenes312 your wrong check your facts

[@DeletedScenes312]

Bob Marley It came out of Frank Warren's own mouth, in an IFL around the time Fury vs Wilder was first announced (the video will still be on KZbin). The $50m was to buy the full rights to the fight. Joshua may have been paid a purse from that $50m, but Sky and Matchroom would have taken their cut from it too. It was never a $50m PURSE offer to Joshua. I don't believe either side ever claimed it was.

Nice job there with the questions about the Wilder vs Fury, Kugan! Had Hearn reeling!

[@GoKu-wu1bn]

Eddie Hearn is salty, end of.

[@shax5292]

Eddie Hearn is the Don. Bought the heavyweight division back to life hate him or love him you have to give him that

[@promodpromod]

still arrogant enough too think his man is worth more than wilder or fury by a bunch then.... aj fans enjoy your april aj v abum of no interest fight. around the same time the real boxing fans will be watching the wilder v fury2 superfight. sorry folks i cant get behind a fighter who lets his team value purse over legacy....

[@Brock-Lesnar-WWE]

If Hearn was Tyson promoter he would have called this a classic. And if AJ was under frank warren promotion then eddie would call AJ shit

[@specialk3006]

I love Tyson but I’d love to see deontay smash up aj for jokes

[@markbrad123]

If you value the fight on ability to dodge punches also, not just punches landed, then it was a great fight. The boring fights are when fighters just avoid each other and hardly ever punch.

[@adeimantus7226]

He jealous asf

[@warbob2430]

Not sure what Eddie Hearn is going to do because if Wilder rematches Fury, and Fury wins, which i'm sure he'll do, then they'l have to rematch again as Wilder will have a rematch clause.

[@terryhoits3222]

Forget about khan vs brook. Fights lost it appeal imo. If khan vs Crawford is an option go for the world title shot.

[@alanjohnstone1281]

First off hats off to Hearn. He's guided AJ's career masterfully. ESPECIALLY since Fury's career went off the rails. They picked up those belts one by one making a mint. Right now though Fury has thrown a massive spanner in the works. He's getting the attention & fanfare that was missing 3 years ago. All of a sudden he's the talking point & focus of the division, along with Wilder. Its all good. Wether its 2019 or 2020! Fury vs. Joshua or Joshua vs. Fury whatever way you want to say it will be the biggest fight in British boxing history. That I have no doubt. People want it already within a year they will demand it. Respect to the Gypsy King. He's made of stern stuff! What a comeback up to this point & its not over yet! Great to see!

[@W67w]

I want to see Khan vs Crawford

Have to say Kugan held the fire to Hearn feet un this one. Thumbs up mate !

[@tabsh2528]

Two words: Sour Grapes!

[@JonathanAnon]

Eddie is bang on about Kugan using selective quotes as clickbait. Hearn gave Fury lots of praise, but Kugan still managed to title the video with the one "controversial" thing that he said on the video.

[@simonhh]

"It wasn't a great fight." Any fake praise before or after is irrelevant.

The British consumer should never buy another Joshua fight that doesn't involve Fury or Wilder.

[@endofthebeginning6964]

Why would we buy fury or wilder ? Wilder is American and fury is a Boring fighter

is hearn wearing an audemars piquet royal oak ? anyone know ?

[@bradleyedwards3203]

Matthew Russell I think so or a Patek phillipe

[@matthewrussell8590]

@@bradleyedwards3203 i double checked, almost certain its an audemars. Thats a proper considered (exotic) purchase, a collectors piece , its not the run of the mill "i bought this because its expensive" type purchase you get with most wealthy people. Im looking at you Rolex buyers 😂 interesting, i thought it was worth mentioning. Outside of boxing we dont know much about eddie hearn. Perhaps he has a passion for watches 🤷‍♂️

[@matthewrussell8590]

@Denzel J i didnt know about the sponsorship deal with AJ and Audemars and could well be a gift. The genta style can be polarising, maybe AJ hated it and gave it to Eddie 😂 i was going to say i bet its the automatic.... are you certain its the quartz? maybe its hearns beater watch 😂

Matthew Russell yes

Well done to Tyson, Warren and the American's for putting this snake in his place.

[@DsoundsOfficial]

I'm with Eddie on this one, the fight itself (forget the build up and the fighters respective stories) was very good but definitely not a *classic*

[@benodom8514]

Dear viewers the significance of this interview is just after 15.00. Eddie states that Tyson text him during the week. This would mean there is a distinct possibility that talks for 'Fury Vs Joshua' maybe in motion
