Press conference – 5 vs 5

Hey June! On Saturday…the first day of the month, a mega lineup of magnificent talent in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, with the 5 vs 5 mega card, a tournament between the fighters of the two giant VIP-UK promoters.

A brainwave of General Entertainment Authority Leader and Royal Advisor to the Court of Saudi Arabia, Turki Alalshikh, who has become the main promoter of massive boxing nights there, with top-level productions, and this will be another pearl.

With 5 weight divisions carefully chosen, Frank Warren, owner of Queensberry, chose 5 fighters and Eddie Hearn of Matchroom matched this. It will exactingly test the mettle of the two main promoters in the United Kingdom, whose keen edged rivalry, eliciting a smile dates back a while!

This Thursday the last press conference was held prior to this long-awaited card, which can be seen live on https://DAZN.com/WBC

The clash of heavyweight giants, with the Chinese Zhang and the American Wilder, will be the main fight of the evening, in which a spectacular knockout is expected in the style of both.

“I am the man with the big right hand, with the big bomb. Nobody has the mentality, the warrior spirit, the warrior heart, the killer instinct like me, especially when I’m turned on. “This is a fight in which someone is going to get knocked out, it is not a 12-round fight,” commented Deontay Wilder.

“On Saturday I will be more dangerous. Yes Wilder is back, back to receive the ‘BANG’ (Zhang’s blow and nickname). When a Bomber meets a ‘Bang’, they know what is going to happen,” commented Zhilei Zhang.

The WBC middleweight silver champion, the British Hamzah Sheeraz, will face the tough American fighter Ammo Williams.

“I’m looking forward to having a great fight on Saturday. There are fights in your career where you intend to not only win, but also beat up your opponent. This is one of those fights for me,” commented Sheeraz.

“I’m sure it will be a great fight that can steal the night. I want to give you the biggest knockout ever seen before. I can’t wait to get in the ring,” Williams said.

In an attractive light heavyweight fight, Willy Hutchinson and Craig Richards will face each other for the WBC Silver title.

“I’m going to knock you out. I’m going to win by knockout and I’m going to take that title home,” Hutchinson said.

“You’re not a bad guy, you’re a clown. You’re the one who’s going to end up on the canvas on Saturday. I’m badder than you,” Richards said.

At heavyweight, Filip Hrgovic will face Daniel Dubois, in one of the most anticipated fights in the division, disputing the IBF interim title.

“I’ll crush Dubois and then in September I’ll go to Wembley to fight Joshua,” Hrgovic said.

For his part, Dubois commented: “I had a great training camp and I am ready for a war. I didn’t come to Riyadh to lose. “Expect fireworks”

In another fight, the WBA featherweight champion, Ray Ford, will face the British Nick Ball, in a fight of undefeated men.

The card is promoted by the president of the General Entertainment Authority and Royal Advisor to the Court of Saudi Arabia, Turki Al-Sheikh.
