Three fights on after the public workouts. Chris Kongo on now, Hamed next, the finally Cameron Voung if anyone it interested.
Vuong, Kongo and Hamed all won.

Vuong in an 8 rounder points win. Vuong has talent.

Hamed 4 rounder points win. More showboating and cliched footwork than ability against a man win 4 wins in 42 fights. He will not do anything as a pro unless handled artistically. He's better suited to Misfits like his brother.

Kongo won a 6 rounder on points. Another nothing fight.

None of the 3 fights are (re-)watching tbh.

Any ideas on the undercard?

The first fight was a gem. Hope Fury can win a close decision here. Just to get everyone arguing. Line up a decider.

Parker should be on the undercard.

Zhang has his rematch clause, but there are others that may fight him.

Grand Plaza Hotel, Gulf Riyadh. A little bit out but taxis are cheap. You'll need a taxi from most places to the area the boxing and weigh in, etc is, Boulevard City.

Who did you booked it through? Booking.com is ten times more than that.

Tickets form £99. Hotels from £70. Flights must be about £400-500?

Cheap part from flight.

Anyone know what there is to do in Riyadh?

Check out visitsaudi they’re always promoting it.

Riyadh is right in centre of Saudi. Long way from heddah on the west coast and long way from al
Khobar to the right. Both very westernised

Tickets start cheaper than that. They're under £20 for the Bivol fight and there's a lot left.
