There has been no shortage of glamour in Riyadh this week with a plethora of celebrities gathered for the event.
Where else would you see former two-weight UFC champion Conor McGregor sat between ex-Liverpool forward Sadio Mane, who now plays for Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League, and ex-Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand?
Plenty of famous faces from the world of combat sports turned out in big numbers, with Manny Pacquiao, Ricky Hatton, Frank Bruno, Oscar de la Hoya and Prince Naseem Hamed among those flying the flag for boxing, while former mixed martial artists Chuck Liddell, Randy Couture, Junior dos Santos and Frank Mir were ringside.
Footballing greats past and present were also among the crowd, including five-time Ballon d'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo, who dashed to the event just hours after a 3-1 win for Al-Nassr at Al-Feiha, alongside former Brazil international Ronaldo and ex-Real Madrid forward Figo.
Producer and fashion designer Kanye West and fellow rapper Eminem also made the trip to Riyadh.
The event formed part of 'Riyadh Season' - an entertainment events festival held in Saudi Arabia's capital every year since 2019.
The Saudi Arabian government reportedly paid big money to host the crossover bout but the country's increased involvement in global sport has proven controversial.
Saudi Arabia's increasing desire to host elite sporting events - including boxing matches, an annual Formula 1 race and a bid for the 2034 World Cup - has brought scrutiny due to the country's poor human rights record.
Mohammed bin Salman, the Saudi crown prince, said in September that he "does not care" about accusations that the country is "sportswashing" - investing in sport and using high-profile events to quell criticism of its practices and improve its international reputation.
