Turki Lining Up Bakole – Itauma, Ortiz – Ennis, Zepeda – Cruz

Head of Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority Turki Alalsheikh has lifted the curtain on an autumn show he hopes to stage:

We’re in talks with our partners about a November card. My aim is to deliver Vergil Ortiz Jr. – Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis, Martin Bakole – Moses Itauma, and William Zepeda – Isaac Cruz.

If the opportunity presents itself, I’d also like to add Christian Mbilli – Lester Martinez.

Should the fighters and promoters agree to the terms, we can put all of those bouts on one night,” said Turki.

Earlier, Alalsheikh revealed the front-runners to face Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez after his September clash with Terence Crawford.
