Tyson Fury responds to Eddie Hearn's claims on Oleksandr Usyk fight

Tyson Fury has responded to Eddie Hearn's claims on a potential fight with Oleksandr Usyk.

Eddie Hearn has now stated on multiple occasions that Tyson Fury is the one to blame for a fight with Usyk not materialising.

And when asked about Hearn's comments, Fury responded.

He told iFL TV: "Listen, I'd fight Usyk seven times a week, 62 times on a Sunday, in his back yard. I would fight Usyk and Joshua on the same
