HE Turki Alalshikh said: “The quality of the first fight has left fans globally wanting more so we are delighted to already be able to confirm the rematch as part of Riyadh Season 2024. It is a chance for both fighters to write another chapter in boxing history and deliver what everyone around the world wants to see.”
