On March 8, at a boxing evening in Riyadh, a fight for the vacant WBA world champion title in junior middleweight will take place between Israil Madrimov (9-0-1, 6 KOs) and Magomed Kurbanov (25-0, 13 KOs).

Previously, the World Boxing Association title in this weight category belonged to Jermell Charlo. For both boxers, this will be the first opportunity to become a world champion in their professional careers.

Two more championship fights will be held as part of the boxing evening in Saudi Arabia - Zhilei Zhang and Joseph Parker will fight for the interim WBO heavyweight belt, and Ray Vargas and Nick Ball will challenge the WBC featherweight title.
