Via Kal Sajad in bbc.com: Saudi Arabia has played host to some of the biggest boxing events over the past 12 months, and on Saturday – for the first time – the Kingdom will host a womens world title fight. Australias Skye Nicolson will defend her WBC featherweight title against Briton Raven Chapman, on the undercard of Artur Beterbiev v Dmitry Bivol, in Riyadh. This is a much-needed and big shot in the arm for womens boxing as it joins the Riyadh Season train which is moving to a greater destination for boxing, promoter Eddie Hearn tells BBC Sport.
