Hearn Confused Why Joshua Talks Retirement: "Anthony Isn't Giving Himself Much Time"

Eddie Hearn, the head of Matchroom Boxing, is puzzled by former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua's (28-3, 25 KOs) discussions about ending his career.

"Joshua is in good shape and enjoying his craft more than ever. As long as he's in this state, why not fight as long as possible? I think two years is the right decision. Hopefully, he'll get a fight with the winner of the Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk match, what else is there to do?" said Hearn. Previously, Anthony stated that he had always talked about retiring at 35. He is currently 35, but according to Joshua, he could box for about two more years.
