The official declaration was made yesterday, Friday, August 9, 2019, with the battle tagged: 'Clash on the Dunes.'
Joshua will be looking to recover his IBF, WBA and WBO titles after losing them in a stun thrashing to Ruiz Jr back in June at Madison Square Garden. The Mexican fighter overcomed Joshua in the seventh-round to hand British/Nigerian boxer his first expert misfortune.
For the rematch, Saudi Arabian sports authorities are said to set up nearly $100million (£83million) for the match to be held there. In the UK, the fight will be shown on Sky Box Office.
