Jeddah Hosts Global Fight 'The Comeback'
The eyes of boxing fans around the world are turning to Jeddah Governorate, which will host the global event 'The Comeback' on July 25, a highly anticipated sporting event bringing together an elite group of top professional boxers, led by Britain's Anthony Joshua and Albania's Kristian Beringa, as part of a series of international fights that strengthen the Kingdom's position as a premier destination for hosting major global sporting events.
The event will take place at the Jeddah Super Dome as part of a four-day program that includes welcoming the boxers, an official press conference, weigh-in events, and culminating in the main fight night featuring 13 professional bouts with champions and rising talents from around the world.
The main fight between Joshua and Beringa is attracting widespread attention, as it represents an important return to the ring for British boxer Anthony Joshua, in a match where he seeks to regain his position among the heavyweight elite and get closer again to competing for world titles, while Albanian Kristian Beringa enters the bout with an impressive professional record and ambition to continue rising in the global rankings.
The main card includes several fights for world and continental titles, along with the participation of promising Saudi talents, including boxers Mohammed Al-Aql and Ziyad Al-Maayouf, a step that reflects the development of boxing in the Kingdom and the expansion of its base of practitioners and professionals.
The event comes as an extension of the series of international sporting events hosted by the Kingdom under the goals of Saudi Vision 2030, aimed at enhancing quality of life and attracting the world's top competitions, thereby stimulating tourism and economic activity and strengthening Jeddah's position on the map of major sporting events.
The event is expected to attract a large audience and media coverage from inside and outside the Kingdom, given the immense global popularity of boxing and the significance of the main fight in the heavyweight division during the year 2026.
