Turki Alalshikh Offers Brandon Figueroa Riyadh Title Defense After WBA Title Win

Alalshikh offered Figueroa a first defense Sept. 12 in Riyadh, after his late stoppage of Ball in Liverpool. “We want to see you defend your title for the first time…when we stage Mexico vs. The World,” he wrote, teasing Canelo Alvarez’s return. Figueroa was up on two cards at the stoppage. Alvarez returns after Terence Crawford loss and left-elbow surgery.
