Shocking Revelation: Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury Among Top Three Fights Saudi Boxing Chief Aims to Arrange, Including Potential Canelo Alvarez Showdown!

Saudi boxing boss Turki Alalshikh plans to stage three contests, including one between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury.

Fury is now training for his undisputed world heavyweight title battle against Oleksandr Usyk next month, while ‘AJ’ just defeated Francis Ngannou.

Regardless of their previous or forthcoming plans, fans have continued to speculate about a possible fight between the two, with Turki Alalshikh also voicing his opinion.

During a ‘Ask Me Anything Q&A’ on Reddit, Alalshikh disclosed three bouts he’d like to organize in the future, having had a significant part in the present boxing landscape.

Alalshikh expressed interest in three fights: Fury vs Joshua, Crawford vs Canelo Alvarez, and Benavidez vs Artur Beterbiev.

Given Alalshikh’s influence in the boxing world, it’s highly possible that some, if not all, of those fights will take place later this year.

The Saudi boxing promoter has already planned Fury’s future fight with Usyk, as well as Joshua’s victory against former UFC champion Ngannou.

Last month, Alalshikh teased a ‘big’ Wembley spectacle for later this year, with many speculating it could be Joshua vs. Fury.

He stated that he is collaborating with Frank Warren and Eddie Hearn to create a significant advertisement for the Riyadh Season in Wembley Stadium during the third quarter.

Eddie Hearn recently announced that Joshua and Fury could sign a two-fight deal to eventually meet each other.

On the Sports Agents podcast, Hearn mentioned Turki Alalshikh, a prominent figure in Saudi Arabia’s sports and entertainment industry.

‘He’s also the biggest fight fan I’ve ever known. And, bizarrely, he’s now talking about arranging two Fury vs AJ matches, one in Saudi Arabia and one at Wembley Stadium.

Joshua and Fury have both fought at Wembley before, experiencing some of their best nights in boxing at the iconic venue.

AJ beat Wladimir Klitschko in front of 90,000 fans at Wembley in 2017, rising from the canvas to stop the Ukrainian in the 11th round of a back-and-forth contest.

He returned the following year to knock out Russia’s Alexander Povetkin in the seventh round.

Fury was also victorious at the national team stadium as he beat fellow Brit Dillian Whyte in 2022.
