So ****** to have this in Saudi Arabia instead of England.

I know this comment was meant to be a joke(or was it?) but would they even have ring girls then?

I can't wait to find out. Ring Sheikhs won't have the same effect, I feel.

[Stacky]

Unreal...should be in the uk

[Kezzer]

What logic is there for this one? What time zone is Saudi Arabia, will you lose out on a huge audience as a result?

[chrisJS]

The same as usual will happen and the Saudi's will pull out a few weeks prior and then it will be re-scheduled a couple months later in England. It was always obvious Usyk-Gassiev was never going to come off. The middle east always talks about getting fights but is very indecisive.

Oh yeah such a proud tradition in boxing history and perfect environment for a contest between two foreigners from the same country. This is the sort of reason AJ didn’t sign for $50m and hand over the promotion to someone else. (No, I’m not trying to hijack this thread to discuss AJ, just making a point).
