    How Often Has A Fight Been Confirmed For A Still Unbuilt Venue?

    The alleged 12,000 seat venue for Joshua vs Ruiz II on Dec. 7 hasn't even begun being constructed from my understanding.

    How common is this for fights that actually happened and when was the last time you are aware this happened?

    And bonus question how long does it take to build such a venue or are these mfers just gonna prop up some bleachers on a sand dune?

    Hard to believe there is no venue there already.

          So you are saying there is a venue already built? Or you saying the fight isn't happening on Dec. 7 cuz the venue won't be built yet?

                  I don't see any mention of one 12k or bigger stadium in this city at all on their football/soccer stadium's wiki page.
