Turki Al Sheikh with Joshua: "We Are Waiting for the Result"

Turki Al Sheikh, the organizer of Riyadh Season boxing events, shared a photo with former unified world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua and intriguingly captioned it.

"We are waiting for the result of the Usyk-Fury match," Turki wrote under the photo.

The fact is, Anthony is one of the candidates for a fight against the winner of the Usyk-Fury pair.

Besides the option of fighting the absolute champion, there is also a potential fight against the winner of the Daniel Dubois-Philipp Hrgovic bout, which is set to take place on June 1st in Saudi Arabia. This fight might be for the IBF title if Usyk and Fury decide on a rematch and if the IBF does not sanction such a match.

Meanwhile, the British fighter has stated that he plans to have his next fight in the summer.
