The eyes of the boxing world will be on Riyadh this week for the titanic heavyweight clash between Anthony Joshua and Francis Ngannou.
Ngannou only made his boxing bow against WBC world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury last year but impressed in the bout where he shockingly knocked Fury to the canvas before suffering defeat via the judges' scorecards.
He could present a stern test for Joshua, who heads into the bout having won his last fight against Otto Wallin.
The whole city will be centred around the showdown, with a week of events for the two fighters.
