At the London press conference of Anthony Joshua vs. Francis Ngannou, His Excellency Turki Alalshikh declared that he looked forward to staging two cards in 2024. On one card, he wanted the winner of Joshua vs. Ngannou to face the winner of Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk, on the other, Alalshikh desired Matchroom Boxing vs. Queensberry Promotions. “Two cards I want to do in 2024 and I want to see it. The first card is Frank against Eddie. Each one of them will choose five fighters and do a night against each other,” said Alalshikh. “Done,” said Hearn and Warren immediately in unison to Alalshikh’s proposal.

Now, only days after the London press conference, Eddie Hearn informed that the two promoters recently signed an agreement for the mentioned event. In doing so, he wrote, “The friendship lasted a few weeks but now it’s WAR! Tonight we signed an agreement to make it happen! @matchroomboxing v @Queensberry 5 v 5.” Additionally, he looked forward to victory. Following Hearn’s tweet, Warren took to X and made a confident statement too.
