Turki Alalshikh hinted right now together with his “rabbit to hunt” put up on X that he’s going to match Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk trilogy battle throughout Riyadh Season in 2026. Alalshikh says he had a dialog with Fury, and he has “his phrase” that Fury will come out of retirement subsequent yr.
Fury-Usyk Trilogy: Turki’s 2026 Hunt
It seems that Turki goes to placate Fury (34-2-1, 24 KOs) following his bellyaching to the media right now about his loss to unified heavyweight champion Usyk (23-0, 14 KOs) by a 12-round unanimous determination on December twenty first in Riyadh.
Fury acknowledged that if he did come out of retirement, it might be to battle Usyk, saying, I solely need a f****** truthful battle. I don’t need any favours, I need a truthful battle, a good end result. Which I consider, and I do know, I didn’t [get]. I believed I gained it [the rematch] by 5 rounds. I’ve watched it actually 250 instances, and every time, I by no means, ever see it as there’s a method for him to win.”
‘The Gypsy King’ Fury’s remark could have been the glimmer of hope that Turki wished to listen to. Followers are NOT proud of Alalshikh’s put up, as they see no level in a 3rd battle between the 2 fighters.
Usyk Dominance: Why Fury Trilogy?
Usyk has confirmed himself to be higher than Fury of their two fights, and it’s ridiculous for there to be a 3rd one. If Tyson had gained the second battle or if there was controversy, it might be comprehensible why a 3rd battle must be thought of. However that’s not what occurred. Usyk beat a sluggish, blubbery, and old-looking 281-lb Fury by a 12-round unanimous determination by the scores 116-112, 116-112, and 116-112. In rounds, that comes out to 8-4 for Usyk.
You might inform from watching the second battle that Usyk would beat Fury irrespective of what number of instances they battle. He’s only a significantly better fighter with far superior athletic and technical abilities.
The ‘Gypsy King’ might be again!!! I talked with him, and I’ve his phrase to have him in Riyadh Season in 2026 … 🥊 We’ve got a rabbit to hunt! 🐰🐇 pic.twitter.com/yhDVkoQD1f
