Artur Beterbiev (20-0, 20 KOs) and Dmitry Bivol (22-0, 11 KOs) will headline the show for the undisputed super-middleweight world title in Riyadh on June 1. 

The two hall of fame promoters have each picked five of their boxers to compete against five of their rival counterparts. 

5 v 5 Choices

Frank Warren chose heavyweight Zhilei Zhang (26-2-1, 21 KOs) to represent Queensberry. The Chinese southpaw is coming off a split decision defeat against Joseph Parker. 

Eddie Hearn made a shock choice as he opted for Deontay Wilder (43-3-1, 42 KOs) as his heavyweight to fight Zhang, the first time the pair will be working with each other.

Wilder is also coming off a decision loss to Joseph Parker which makes this fight an intriguing matchup. Wilder is a notoriously big puncher but failed to land with any conviction last time out.
