Nigerian-British heavyweight boxer, Anthony Joshua has landed in Saudi Arabia ahead of his rematch with Andy Ruiz Jr., which will take place on Saturday, December 7, 2019, in Diriyah.

Anthony Joshua will be looking to regain his IBF, WBA and WBO titles after losing them in a shocking defeat to Ruiz Jr back in June at Madison Square Garden. The Mexican boxer defeated Joshua in the seventh-round to hand British/Nigerian boxer his first professional loss.

Sports authorities in Saudi Arabia are said to have tabled almost $100million (£83million) for the match to be held there.

Nigerians are united on this and they all hope and want him to defeat his opponent in the rematch.
