In an exciting overnight announcement, Turki Alalshikh revealed that the upcoming Riyadh Season November show already featuring marquee bouts such as Brian Norman Jr. vs. Devin Haney and David Benavidez vs. Anthony Yarde will also feature a high-stakes clash for the vacant WBO lightweight title.

The additional bout will see Abdullah Mason take on Sam Noakes in a fight that promises to shake up the lightweight division. With a card boasting some of boxing’s biggest names and emerging stars, the inclusion of the title fight adds even more prestige to an already stacked event.

This announcement further cements Riyadh Season’s reputation for delivering world-class combat sports events, with organizers and fans alike eagerly anticipating what promises to be a historic night of action.

At just 21 years old, Abdullah Mason is quickly becoming one of the most talked about young fighters in boxing  and now he’s preparing to take the leap from blue-chip prospect to world champion. After compiling an undefeated record with highlight reel knockouts and flawless technique, Abdullah Mason has shown the poise, power, and pedigree to become the next American star at 135 pounds, a historically stacked division that includes names like Shakur Stevenson, Gervonta Davis recently.

Strong undercard

This card is arguably the best card for this year so far. And it seems to have a lot of high stakes on the line. So for this card to be added on what was already viewed as a loaded card is just a bonus. Gotta give Turki his credit. He is not missing at all when it comes to the fans having big fights available to them.
