CHRISTMAS has come early as Daniel Dubois is all set to face Jarrell Miller on a Christmas cracker of a card which sees Anthony Joshua headline the Saudi bill.
DDD will be determined to bounce back from his disappointing defeat to Oleksandr Usyk back in August.
But the former interim WBA heavyweight champion could have his hands full as Miller goes into this fresh from a sixth-round stoppage win against Australian brawler Lucas Browne.
However, the American has had his past issues – most notably testing positive for performance-enhancing drugs ahead of a cancelled 2019 fight with Anthony Joshua.
This fight is all part of the huge build-up to see British mogul Anthony Joshua take on Swedish star Otto Wallin.
And that is not all as the "Day of Reckoning" card in Riyadh also involves The Bronze Bomber Deontay Wilder in action.
