Yesterday world champion in WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight Alexander Usik (21-0, 14 KOs) met with Turki Alalshih, head of the entertainment department of the Saudi Arabian government.

Alalshikh is the organizer of the fight between Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs) and Francis Ngannou (0-0, 0 KO), scheduled for October 28, and it is possible that he will soon also organize a fight with the participation of the Ukrainian champion, since on his Instagram account he wrote in a joint photo with Usik: “Something important will happen soon.” .

Oleksandr Usyk, who knocked out Daniel Dubois in Wroclaw a few days ago, will be happy to meet Fury in his next fight. The British promoter Frank Warren has already announced his readiness to talk about such a fight.
