Joshua and Bringe take center stage...

The Jeddah Yacht Club and Edition Jeddah Hotel witnessed on Wednesday evening the Grand Arrivals Launch Party, as part of the events of the global boxing match week 'The Comeback', which continues until next Saturday night at Jeddah Super Dome, with the participation of an elite group of top international, Saudi, and Arab boxers.

The event welcomed the stars of the fight card and a number of invited personalities and media representatives, amidst a festive atmosphere punctuated by the boxers' appearances to their own music before stepping into the ring.

Former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua of Britain and Albanian boxer Kristian Bringe headed the attendance, with rising anticipation for their main matchup, a fight bringing together two of the most prominent offensive powerhouses; Joshua has 29 professional wins, 26 by knockout, while Bringe has 20 wins, all by knockout.

Joshua and Bringe had met face to face on Tuesday aboard a yacht at the Jeddah Yacht Club, marking their first appearance during fight week, with the meeting serving as the beginning of the media atmosphere accompanying the event, before their appearance today alongside other participants at the Grand Arrivals Launch Party.

The 'Comeback' evening includes 13 fights, including two for world titles, in addition to three bouts with Saudi participation; Mohammed Al-Akel faces Maltese boxer Laidon Chirkop, Ziyad Al-Maeouf meets Mexican Frank Mango, and Sultan Al-Mohammed takes on Spanish Efren Besaldus.

The evening also sees British Hamza Sheraz defend his WBO super middleweight title against German Simon Zachenhuber, while British Josh Kelly puts his IBF light middleweight title on the line against Irish Kaweheme Agyarko. The card also includes a number of international fights and Arab participants, led by Egyptian presence through Omar Heikal, who faces Spanish Bryan Castellano, and Mohamed Mabrouk, who meets Colombian Brian Zapata, extending their prominent participation in the 'Glory in Giza' event last May.

The event is part of an integrated program for fight week, which is one of the most prominent events of the 'Jeddah Calendar' in cooperation with 'Riyadh Season', and in partnership with 'Matchroom', 'Sela', 'Gold Star', and 'Queensberry'.

The week's activities continue tomorrow (Thursday) with the official press conference for all boxers at the Jeddah Promenade at 9 PM, where participants meet the media and talk about their preparations, ahead of the anticipated direct confrontations between them, with the conference to be broadcast on the 'DAZN' platform.
