Turki Alalshikh Teases Major Boxing Changes After High-Level Meeting

By Tom Galm - 07/01/2026 - Comments

The Riyadh Season chairman says boxing’s leading stakeholders can grow the sport together and hints bigger announcements are still to come

Turki Alalshikh says boxing fans “haven’t seen anything yet” after holding what he described as a productive meeting with many of the sport’s most influential figures. Although no agreements were announced, his comments suggest more developments could soon follow.

While Turki did not reveal any specific agreements or announcements, his final remark immediately fueled speculation that larger plans are still to come after weeks of public disagreements between some of boxing’s biggest promotional companies.

The discussions brought together representatives from DAZN, Matchroom Boxing and Queensberry Promotions following weeks of public disagreement over boxing’s future. Turki also posed for photographs with TKO President Nick Khan after the meeting, although neither he nor Turki referenced Zuffa Boxing in their public comments.

Exactly what Turki was referring to with his promise that fans “haven’t seen anything yet” remains unclear. He offered no details on potential future announcements, but his comments indicate more developments could follow the London meeting.

Turki did not say when the next announcement will come or what form it will take. His message leaves the sport waiting to see if the London meeting produces actual agreements rather than another round of public positioning.

Either way, Turki has made clear he wants the next move to feel bigger.
