The Destroyer, who is represented by Eddie Hearn was rumoured to be coming back to a big fight with the names of Chris Eubank Jr again and even the retired Kell Brook, however, Hearn commented saying: “He’s ready to go straight in for a big fight now but his trainer Tony Sims will be pleased to get him back sooner against a game opponent in Rodolfo Orozco.
