Promoter Eddie Hearn joins Alashikh with his belief that the fight is one of the major sporting events to grace the region.
“This is undoubtedly one of the biggest fights in boxing, and I am grateful His Excellency Turki Alalshikh shares that view,” said Hearn. “We’re talking about two giants in Anthony Joshua and Francis Ngannou.
“Two men who look carved out of stone, two devastating punchers. We are ready for another massive event in Saudi Arabia and a night full of drama.
“After AJ’s demolition of Otto Wallin, he steps up against the former MMA Lineal champ. Francis has already proved his credentials in a thriller with Tyson Fury and comes into this clash full of confidence and fire.
“This is one of the biggest fights in the sport and one that can be over in the blink of an eye. When these two meet in Riyadh, one thing is for sure – it will be Knockout Chaos!”
