Violins at the ready! Riyadh Season debuts operatic trailer for The Last CrescendoMark Robinson / Matchroom Boxing

Anticipation for Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol's undisputed light-heavyweight rematch is close to fever pitch after Riyadh Season officially debuted the trailer on Friday.

The pair top one of the greatest fight cards in boxing history at The Last Crescendo, live from Riyadh's Kingdom Arena on February 22, live on DAZN Pay-Per-View.

Their first bout last October, which saw Beterbiev score a majority decision victory to become the division's first four-belt champion, was considered a fight-of-the year contender.

But with a bill that also boasts Daniel Dubois and Joseph Parker in an IBF heavyweight title clash and a slew of massive names, it will need to be special to stand out this time too.

Artur Beterbiev vs Dmitry Bivol Undisputed light heavyweight title fight
Daniel Dubois vs Joseph ParkerIBF heavyweight title
Shakur Stevenson vs Flloyd SchofieldWBC lightweight title

Vergil Ortiz Jr vs Israil MadrimovWBC interim super welterweight title
Zhilei Zhang vs Agit KabayeWBC interim heavyweight title
Joshua Buatsi vs Callum SmithWBO light heavyweight interim title

That comes through in the latest teaser for the fight itself, following in the footsteps of other memorable adverts from Riyadh Season promoting their super-card clashes.

After a Game of Thrones-inspired clip for the duo's first clash, this latest effort opts for a dramatic reversal, playing up to the spectacle with an opera house setting.

Introduced by Michael Buffer, the pair are seen surrounded by an orchestra, as the brief clip retells the story of their first clash - and sets the stage for their next.
