It appears that Saudi Arabia has once again secured one of the biggest boxing bouts of the year.
According to Eddie Hearn, the anticipated rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua is “likely” to take place in the controversial kingdom after a site deal was agreed upon.
The British boxing promoter also noted that fight will likely be pushed back by several week in order to leave enough time to promote the event.
“We have agreed to a deal for the site, and the working date of July 23rd,” Eddie Hearn said on iFL TV.
