Ryan Garcia, Devin Haney to Headline Saudi Arabia’s First U.S. Boxing Event in 2025

Turki Alalshikh, chairman of the General Entertainment Authority in Saudi Arabia, made a blockbuster announcement on Monday, revealing that a mega-sized boxing event featuring the returns of Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney will go down in May 2025.

Unfortunately, Garcia and Haney won’t be fighting each other, but Alalshikh confirmed three massive matchups for the event, the first being a bout between ‘King Ryan’ and former WBA super lightweight titleholder Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero.
