The mega event in Saudi Arabia on Saturday provides plenty of opportunities for a wager or two
Boxing fans are in for a treat on Saturday with an absolutely stacked card headlined by a rematch between undisputed light heavyweight champion Artur Beterbiev and former champion Dmitry Bivol. Beterbiev won their first meeting with a razor-thin decision.
The card is filled with big names and meaningful fights, though it did take a few hits in recent days. First, Floyd Schofield withdrew from his lightweight championship fight with Shakur Stevenson due to illness. Illness then caught up with IBF heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois, forcing him out of his title defense against Joseph Parker. Luckily, Josh Padley stepped in to face Stevenson and Martin Bakole will now face Parker.
