Zuffa Boxing has confirmed its first show in Saudi Arabia.
Indeed, they announced the PPV Zuffa Boxing 13, which will take place on Saturday, November 14, 2026, at The Venue arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. That puts it one week after Crown Jewel 2026 and in the same venue.
The announcement was made today. It should be noted that Zuffa Boxing is a boxing league launched and created by the TKO group (which runs WWE) and the Sela group (an entertainment group in Saudi Arabia). This new information confirms that the TKO group has no intention of relocating its shows to Saudi Arabia, as the company is adding another event there.
Let us not forget that Power Slap, Dana White’s slap fighting company, will also present its Power Slap 26 show at The Venue on November 6, 2026.
Clearly, there is no plan to cancel a sporting event in Saudi Arabia despite the recent tensions.
