Artur Beterbiev, the current world light heavyweight champion, will have a rematch against Dmitry Bivol on February 22 in Riyadh, according to Turki Al Al-Sheikh, the chairman of the General Entertainment Authority of Saudi Arabia.
The first fight between the two boxers took place in October, where Beterbiev won by a majority decision in a closely contested match.
In addition to the main event, there will be another exciting bout featuring Daniel Dubois defending his IBF heavyweight title against Joseph Parker.
The fight card will also showcase multiple title fights such as Shakur Stevenson facing Floyd Schofield for the WBC lightweight title, Carlos Adames against Hamza Shiraz for the WBC middleweight title, and Virgil Ortiz squaring off with Israil Madrimov for the WBC interim middleweight title. Zhilei Zhang will compete against Agit Kabayel for the vacant WBC interim heavyweight title, while Joshua Buatsi will go up against Callum Smith for the vacant interim WBO light heavyweight title.
