Forgot about Usyk’s match? Turki Al-Sheikh talked about the plans for the year

Head of the General Directorate of Entertainment of Saudi Arabia Turki Al-Sheikh spoke about his plans for this year and named the matches he will organize in the near future:

“The main goal is to fight in the British market. At first we considered a match between Joshua and Fury, but now it is impossible. Tyson retired, you need to find another opponent. We will probably try to negotiate with Wilder. In Britain, this fight arouses interest.

In addition, there are plans to hold a match between Martin Bakole and Efe Ajagba. The winner of this meeting could claim the IBF title. If Bakole wins, fighting in Africa is the best solution for the future,” said Turki Al-Sheikh.

It is interesting that earlier the functionary repeatedly spoke about a potential meeting between Dubois and Usyk, but this time Al-Sheikh did not say anything about the match between the Ukrainian champion.
