TYSON FURY possesses a ‘laughable’ boxing record in comparison to Anthony Joshua, Eddie Hearn once claimed.
The Matchroom boss has been AJ’s promoter since he turned professional in 2013, overseeing fights against the likes of Wladimir Klitschko, Dillian Whyte and Oleksandr Usyk.
Anthony Joshua reclaimed his world titles with victory over Andy Ruiz Jr last year
Tyson Fury knocked out Deontay Wilder to win his WBC belt in February 2020
AJ is currently out the world title picture following loses to Oleksandr Usyk
Joshua is currently licking his wounds following back-to-back defeats to Oleksandr Usyk, going down by split decision in their Jeddah.
But back in 2020 – before Joshua won back his belts against Kubrat Pulev – Hearn was adamant that AJ had faced better fighters than Fury.
He told Sky Sports: “It makes me laugh when people look at AJ’s resume.
“Maybe I’m seeing something other people don’t?
“I mean Dillian Whyte, Dominic Breazeale, Wladimir Klitschko, Joseph Parker, Alexander Povetkin, Carlos Takam, Andy Ruiz, Kubrat Pulev.
“These are consecutive fights. You don’t see Tom Schwarz, Otto Wallin, Sefer Seferi.
“Who is the other geezer? I can’t even remember his name, the Italian bloke? And then Agit Kabayel.
“I mean it’s laughable when you compare the two resumes, but it’s in black and white for everyone to see.”

Both Joshua and Fury have beaten heavyweight legend Wladimir Klitschko, the latter downing the unified champ in 2015 before experiencing personal problems.
On his comeback, the 34-year-old fought a number of lesser-known opponents before a duel with Deontay Wilder.
The 2020 rematch victory over the American saw him claim the WBC title.
Joshua and Fury were on course for a shock Battle of Britain last December, although negotiations failed to bear fruit.
AJ will bid to breathe new life into his career in April in a high-stakes showdown with Jermaine Franklin at the O2.
He said of the fight: “[I’m] locked in.
“It’s a serious opponent, I respect all my opponents.
“He’s coming to fight. That will make me keep my feet on the ground.
“Throughout my career this is probably the most serious time I’ve taken it.
“Everything I’ve been through, positive, negative I’m using it to fuel this camp.”
He added: “I’m not war-torn, I still feel fresh.”
Fury, meanwhile, is gearing up for a historic undisputed heavyweight title fight with Usyk on April 29.

Boxing can be a great exercise and a way to improve your self-esteem. It will be a fun activity that you will want to do again and again.
There are many kinds of boxing programs. You can choose to train in a gym or at home. Others require that you go to a health club. Online courses allow you to learn from anywhere in the globe.
You should ensure that the program you select meets your lifestyle and goals. The best programs focus on exercises that increase muscle mass, flexibility and cardiovascular endurance. They also promote overall well being.
It’s important to decide whether you prefer a beginner-level course or one that is more advanced. Beginner’s programs usually teach basic techniques and drills such as shadowboxing, sparring, mitt work, and punching combinations. Advanced programs offer more variety and more complex movements.
Programs for beginners usually last eight weeks and cost less that $100. However, they don’t provide any guidance on nutrition, weight loss, injury prevention, or other aspects of boxing training.
Advanced programs generally last around six months and cost approximately $300. They can include nutrition advice, stretching routines, warm up exercises, and instructions on proper technique. In addition, some programs incorporate resistance training (such as lifting weights) and aerobic conditioning (such as running).
