Boxing fans will attend Anthony Joshua's clash with Oleksandr Usyk without vaccine passports, says Eddie Hearn

Boxing fans will not need a vaccine passport to attend Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk's clash at Tottenham Hotspurs Stadium, match-room Boxing Chief Eddie Hearn revealed.

It was reportedly revealed that fans attending the fight of these two great boxers would have to show proof of double vaccination, which the Government are contemplating making mandatory for those looking to go to large events. 

"We wait for rules and regulations. I don't believe that will be the case.

"But I know that obviously from the freedom day yesterday, we now have approval for September 4th for 20,000 at Headingley (for Warrinton vs Lara) and full capacity at Tottenham Hotspur on September 25.

"So we should crack on, we should fill up the stadiums and we should start bringing big-time boxing events back to the UK because it's much-needed after what was a tremendous Euros

"And yeah, obviously they stole my song, which is fine. One that I wrote and produced in Sweet Caroline and I'm looking forward to seeing that back at the boxing as well."Eddie Hearn told IFL TV. 

Hearn, like many others, isn't a fan of the potential implementation of vaccine passports.

"I personally wouldn't like to see that in place and I don't know if it's actually lawfully possible to be introduced. Who knows? Hearn added. 

AJ will defend his unified heavyweight titles against the undefeated Ukrainian on September 25 in front of a capacity crowd at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
