The World Heavyweight title boxing rematch between Andy Ruiz and Anthony Joshua was set for Diriyah in Saudi Arabia on December 7.
The World Heavyweight title boxing rematch between Andy Ruiz and Anthony Joshua has been set for Diriyah in Saudi Arabia for December 7.
World Heavyweight boxing champion Andy Ruiz has cast doubt on whether his title rematch with former champ Anthony Joshua, scheduled for December in Saudi Arabia will take place, saying Wednesday: "I have not signed anything yet". Hearn and former champion Joshua are on something of a rebuilding mission since his disastrous U.S. fight debut at Madison Square Garden in June. On that noisy New York night, Ruiz shocked the boxing world by beating the previously undefeated Brit to take the WBA, IBF and WBO Heavyweight titles.
Managing director of Matchroom Boxing, Eddie Hearn, told CNBC that hosting the fight in Diriyah, Saudi Arabia will "change boxing forever," dismissing concerns over the country's human rights record. World Wrestling Entertainment , golf's European Tour and motorsport's Formula E have all hosted major events in Saudi Arabia during the past year. In the case of WWE, none of its female roster of wrestlers were allowed to compete in the country and Hearn was vague over any possible restrictions affecting the event's undercard for December 7.
