    But ahead of the showdown, he posted on Instagram the following message: “Some amazing news coming out of Saudi Arabia . thank you @oudaysingh and my dad @gypsyjohnfury. Stay tuned 🚨”
    And some fans think that it will be an announcement to confirm a FOURTH fight between Fury and Deontay Wilder.
    The pair are long-term rivals having fought three times in the ring in a trilogy of fights between 2018 and 2021, with the Brit winning the last two following a draw in their first meeting.
    They came face to face earlier for the first time since their third fight with Tyson shouting “bomb squad” before shaking hands with the American.

    It is believed Wilder is in Saudi Arabia for talks about his next fight with both boxers said to be open to a fourth bout – but fans do not seem as keen.
    One replied to his post: “Better not be fury vs wilder 4.”
    Another commented: “No-one wants to see Fury vs Wilder again.”
    Wilder was asked about it himself, and he told BT Sport: “I can confirm that whatever is going on, it’s excitement that people have been waiting to see for a very long time.

    “A fourth Tyson Fury fight? There’s always a possibility of that…”
    However, Fury and Oleksandr Usyk’s undisputed title fight is close to being confirmed for April 29 at Wembley.
    Fury’s promoter Bob Arum had confirmed Saudi Arabia is OUT of the equation to host the first ever four-belt heavyweight unification.
    But with Fury in attendance alongside the Saudi bigwigs, some feel that the Middle East nation could be back in the running.
    And one other theory is that Fury could be set for a WWE match against Logan Paul – Jake’s older brother.
    Both men have competed inside the squared-circle previously, and with WWE producing several shows a year in Saudi, it would not be completely out of the question to see them collide in the ring.
