Alalshikh Proposes Promoters' Summit to Resolve White–Hearn Feud

Overview

• Turki Alalshikh announced a plan Friday to convene Dana White, Eddie Hearn, Frank Warren, Nick Khan and DAZN for a summit to 'make peace and revolution for boxing,' though no date or formal invitations have been confirmed.
• Alalshikh framed the effort as urgent because of his long‑running health issues and a public fear of losing his memory, a detail that has sharpened the optics around the mediation.
• The public feud between White and Hearn centers on who will promote the proposed Tyson Fury–Anthony Joshua fight and escalated earlier this year after Zuffa Boxing signed Conor Benn and Hearn then signed UFC heavyweight Tom Aspinall to a management deal.
• Conor McGregor publicly endorsed Alalshikh’s plan on X while many fans and commentators questioned Alalshikh’s neutrality and pointed to his prior role in changing boxing’s power balance.
• No participant has publicly agreed to terms yet, so the summit’s ability to resolve promotional control, broadcasting rights, venue choice or whether the Fury‑AJ bout proceeds as planned remains uncertain.
