April Fools!
The fight is being held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on May 11th. How many fans are actually traveling out there for this contest?!? It's such an odd location to end this Cruiserweight tournament.

Apparently this is the start of something new for General Sports Authority, the governing body in control of Sports..
They have a 10 year plan or something, building towards Saudi Vision 2030, their Solial and economic reform plan..
WWE have started a 10 year partnetship with them..

I don't think that the fight location and date are defined.

“There’s a discussion right now between Comosa and the Russian Boxing Federation about bringing the Usyk-Gassiev fight to Russia,” Leo Khorolinsky, adviser of WBA/IBF cruiserweight champion Murat Gassiev, told Fightnews.com® in an exclusive interview.
“Comosa has the right to choose a date and location for the final and we’ll be ready at that date and that location. We are professionals. Hopefully for everyone, Oleksandr Usyk’s and Murat Gassiev’s sake, sooner that decision is being made the better, so we can have this weight out off our shoulders, have great training camps and have an amazing fight between two great champions.”
The World Boxing Super Series cruiserweight final has already been announced for Jeddah, Saudi Arabia in May, but rumors persist that the location may be changed.
Regarding Gassiev's alleged overweight:
“Murat is always Murat. He does his thing, nothing has changed. He always comes to the training camp with the same weight, and he will have no problem to make weight.
