The head of Saudi Arabia’s General Authority for Entertainment, Turki Al al-Sheikh, has shared his intention to arrange a bout between Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder.
Quote. "I want to see Joshua and Wilder now. If Tyson Fury is unavailable, why not have a Joshua vs. Wilder fight?" Turki Al al-Sheikh stated.
Previously, Turki mentioned plans to organize another 5-on-5 battle between Queensberry Promotions and Matchroom Boxing, scheduled for April or May this year.
Reminder. Wilder is set to face 36-year-old Curtis Harper in his next fight this April.
Joshua, on the other hand, lost to Daniel Dubois in September. According to his promoter Eddie Hearn, Anthony could return to the ring this summer to fight Tyson Fury or have a rematch against Dubois. However, Fury recently announced his retirement from boxing.
