      Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury one of three dream fights Saudi boxing chief wants to make

      by

      SAUDI boxing chief Turki Alalshikh has named Anthony Joshua versus Tyson Fury on his list of three dream fights to make. The powerful politician has rejuvenated the sport by fronting the cash to finally make the biggest bouts happen. Anthony Joshua with Saudi boxing boss Turki AlalshikhCredit: @Turki_alalshikhTyson Fury vs Joshua is on Alalshikh’s boxing wishlistCredit: @Turki_alalshikhAnd in an “Ask Me Anything Q&A” on Reddit, he listed the three fights he most desperately wants to make. They are as follows: Joshua vs Fury, Canelo Alvarez vs Terence Crawford and Artur Beterbiev vs David Benavidez. Here, SunSport runs down what makes the showdowns on Alalshikh’s wishlist so special. Joshua vs Fury It is by far the greatest fight ever to be made in Britain and possibly the biggest on the market right now. READ MORE IN BOXINGYears of feuding and speculation would finally be put to bed in a genuine blockbuster for the ages. There is hope if Fury defeats Oleksandr Usyk on May 18 that AJ could slot in to face the Gypsy King afterwards to at last give fans – and Alalshikh – what they want. Canelo vs CrawfordUnbeaten American Crawford, 36, has looked almost unstoppable on his way to becoming a four-division world champ. And he is so confident he is ready to go up THREE divisions to fight boxing’s top superstar Canelo. Most read in BoxingThe Mexican, 33, has so far seemed uninterested in the bout – but that could be quickly changed by a Saudi payday. Beterbiev vs BenavidezOne of Alalshikh’s biggest coups has been making the light-heavyweight undisputed showdown between Dmitry Bivol, 33, and Beterbiev, 39, on June 1. But already, the powerbroker is thinking ahead and has plans for Benavidez, 27, to step up from super-middle to face the winner. The unbeaten US star has chased a bout with Canelo but to no avail leaving himself open to a move to 175lb. More

      Deontay Wilder ready to salvage huge Anthony Joshua fight in September at Wembley after teaming up with Eddie Hearn

      by

      DEONTAY WILDER is ready to salvage his dream fight with Anthony Joshua after teaming up with old enemy Eddie Hearn. The heavyweight pair finally got their blockbuster signed and sealed for March but it was KO’d when Wilder suffered defeat to Joseph Parker. Zhilei Zhang and Wilder meet in the 5-v-5 tournamentCredit: GettyJoshua is set to return in September at WembleyCredit: ReutersNow the American returns on June 1 in Saudi Arabia against Zhilei Zhang in the most unlikely of circumstances. He has been selected as a member of Hearn’s roster of five fighters that are going up against Frank Warren’s picks.Meanwhile, Joshua is set to return in September at Wembley in Saudi boxing chief Turki Alalshikh’s first move into the UK. There is hope it will be against Tyson Fury, but the Gypsy King must first beat Oleksandr Usyk on May 18 while already being contracted to a rematch. READ MORE IN BOXINGSo Wilder would not turn down the chance to at last face AJ should he return to winning ways against Zhang, 40. His manager Shelly Finkel told SunSport: “It’s speculation but if everything goes OK on June 1 like we hope and expect and that’s brought to us, we’re totally open.”Fury, 35, and Usyk, 37, meet in the heavyweight division’s first ever four-belt unification next month. And Fury has distanced himself from a summertime showdown with Joshua, 34, to instead honour a potential October rematch with Usyk.Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERSSo it would leave Wilder, 38, primed to slot in for the Wembley war but Finkel admitted the idea has not yet been discussed with Hearn. He said: “Look, I know why it happened but we didn’t believe that Deontay would lose to Parker, so you can’t get too far ahead of yourself.Anthony Joshua hints mega clash with Tyson Fury will happen in September and says ‘it’s coming, most definitely'”Now we have a big fight in front of us and as long as he does what he’s supposed to, hopefully that’ll be history and then we’ll go forward.”But no, there hasn’t been any direct conversation.”Joshua and Hearn for years endured a turbulent relationship with Wilder and Finkel amid repeated failed attempts to get the fight on. But that was put to bed by the help of the Saudis when they at least had a deal in place before Wilder’s shock loss. So perhaps it paved the way for Hearn to turn to the former WBC champion when he needed a heavyweight to go up against Warren. And it could give Wilder the perfect chance to redeem himself at the scene of the crime just seven months on from his last loss. READ MORE SUN STORIESAnd Finkel added: “He knows what happened, he knows why it happened. He’s not going to let that happen again.”Zhang is not someone you can play around with it’s a fight that if you’re going to beat this guy you’ve got to hurt him early and stop him from being too aggressive.” More
