Calls mount to postpone Canelo-Mbilli amid escalating conflict

Calls are growing to postpone the scheduled October 31 boxing fight card in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, featuring Canelo Alvarez against Christian Mbilli, following a fatal bombing at Riyadh's airport. Saudi boxing financier Turki Alalshikh has insisted the attack will not prevent the event from going ahead, but others involved in the promotion are reportedly reluctant to proceed. The escalating conflict in the region has raised serious safety concerns among those connected to the fight.
