The official main card for Anthony Joshua's heavyweight meeting with Tyson Fury has been revealed, and promoter Eddie Hearn did not hold back in his assessment of the undercard

Eddie Hearn did not hold back in his assessment of the Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua undercard.

Fury and Joshua will finally settle their decade-long feud on December 11 at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff. And with just a few weeks to go, the official main undercard has been revealed. Playing chief support, former cruiserweight king Jai Opetaia will move up to heavyweight and take on Deontay Wilder.

The main card also includes two other heavyweight dust-ups as Martin Bakole faces Solomon Adebayo, while rising star Da’Mazion Vanhouter will take on Michael Essomba just weeks after destroying Ivan Balaz at the Copper Box Arena in London.

Many fans have been left disappointed by the lack of big names on the undercard, and Matchroom supremo Hearn was eager to offer his view. "Opetaia vs Wilder is a great fight. I think that is an intriguing fight. If it happens. Now, the other two, on what planet would you ever put those two fights on the main card of Fury vs AJ?" he told iFL TV.

"Da’Mazion Vanhouter... never heard of him. No disrespect. Build him (Vanhouter) on another f****** undercard. Not on the biggest fight in British boxing history. What about Joe Cordina? What about a two-time world champion from Wales? Mental. As it happens, I am going to land Joe Cordina a big fight in January anyway, but where's the thinking behind it?

"I do not want to throw him under a bus, but I know he won't mind me saying it... I just got off the phone with Spencer Brown. Speechless. Martin Bakole vs the other fella who I have never heard of (Solomon Adebayo) and (Da’Mazion) Vanhouter... put them on the prelims. Thankfully I have got nothing to do with it."

While the full fight card is starting to shape up, there are some fears that the event may not go ahead after objections to the fight being staged in the early hours. The main event is scheduled for a 1am start on December 12 in the UK - with event organisers wanting the stadium to be open until 3.30am.

However, their application has been met with concerns from local residents. Cardiff Council's Licensing Sub-Committee will meet on November 25 to decide whether to grant or reject the stadium's request for an extension to it's current arrangements.

One resident who voiced their concerns, said: "The Council should carefully consider whether these extended hours are necessary and whether adequate safeguards can realistically prevent additional noise, disorder and disruption during the early hours. I ask the Council to refuse the application in its current form."
