Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua's heavyweight super-fight could take place at Wembley Stadium in an American time zone.
That's the message from His Excellency Turki Alalshikh, who intends to speak with London Mayor Sir Sadiq Khan on a deal.
The British pair's long-awaited grudge match has been mooted for overseas over the past month, stoking frustration from fans.
But now, His Excellency has suggested the bout could stay in the United Kingdom - providing it suits a global broadcast audience.
"I tell you from the beginning, it depends if England give us all that we need, we want the fight here in England," he said at a media event.
"But we want the time zone of all the world, especially in America. If they allowed us to have Wembley late in the night, we want to do it in England.
"It is about the time and viewership. We will talk with the mayors and Prince Abdullah (bin Khaled bin Sultan)."
Fury and Joshua both have warm-up bouts this month, with the former facing Mariusz Wach on July 24 and the latter battling Kristian Prenga on July 25.
