Diriyah Arena was built specifically for the organization of the second duel between the Englishman and the Mexican. A week after the fight it will also host a men's tennis tournament.

Anthony Joshua has already arrived in Saudi Arabia, where in less than two weeks he will try to avenge his first loss as a pro. WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight titles will be at stake in this meeting.
