Turki Alalshikh has had some meetings regarding a Canelo super fight and has summarized the new focus.
It appears Alvarez was either looking for too much money for the fight or there was just not enough interest from him in general or from the other parties.
A short time ago on X Turki Alalshikh posted the following:
“Just wrapped up an important meeting now with my team, planning for the upcoming fights that we will make for 2024-2025. I decided to disregard the Canelo fight, as I don’t want it anymore. Instead, I will be focusing for the US market with bigger fights, especially for the legend Crawford. Additionally, I will support making fights for Boots, Haney, Shakur, Ortiz, Anderson, Benavidez, Zepeda and more, regarding Tim Tszyu, there’s something unclear with the communications from his team with our team, so I believe I will reconsider his situation. and for the rest of the world, definitely, I am focusing on Riyadh Season card, wembley edition 21st of September (AJ vs. Dubois) and depending on the results and the results of Riyadh Season’s opening card (Bivol vs. Beterbiev) on the 12th of October, I will build the card for the rematch of Fury vs. Usyk on the 21st of December and another big card on the first quarter of 2025. Stay tuned.”
No Canelo fight involved in that for the remainder of 2024 but what a lineup above.
The Bivol vs Beterbiev fight is surely one of the great fights in recent years too.
Zepeda has shown much promise as well.
Usyk vs Fury 2 at the end of the year the big one of course.
