The head of Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority, Turki Alalshikh, shared his thoughts on the upcoming rematch between WBA, WBC, WBO, and IBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) and former champion Tyson Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs).

Turki expressed hope for a Fury victory but believes Usyk will prevail again.

– What do you think about Saturday’s fight? Would you like to see a trilogy?

– What do I want? Tyson. What do I think? Usyk.

– So you believe Usyk will win?

– I hope Tyson does it. We want to see a third fight.

The rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury is set for December 21 at Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. In their first encounter, Usyk won via split decision, becoming the first undisputed heavyweight champion (over 90.7 kg) since 1999.
