OLEKSANDR USYK VS RICO VERHOEVEN ‘GLORY IN GIZA’ TICKETS ON SALE NOW FOR HISTORIC UNDISPUTED CLASH IN EGYPT – LIVE ON DAZN

PhilBoxing.com




Tickets for the undisputed clash between Oleksandr Usyk and Rico Verhoeven, titled 'Glory in Giza' are on sale now for what is set to be one of the most historic sporting events ever staged.

Set against the extraordinary backdrop of the Pyramids of Giza, the event presents a truly rare sporting occasion, a once-in-a-lifetime setting for a clash of champions.

Unified Heavyweight Champion Usyk (24–0, 15 KOs) meets kickboxing legend Verhoeven on Saturday, May 23, with the WBC Heavyweight Title on the line, broadcast globally on DAZN.

Ahead of the main event, there will be a stacked undercard featuring Hamzah Sheeraz (22–0–1) vs Alem Begic (29–0–1) for the vacant WBO Super Middleweight Title. Sheeraz returns for his first fight of 2026 following a fifth-round knockout of Edgar Berlanga last July.

Jack Catterall (32–2–0) meets unbeaten Uzbek Shakhram Giyasov (17–0–0) for the WBA Regular World Title, coming off a win over Ekow Essuman last November.

Frank Sanchez (25–1) takes on unbeaten Olympic silver medallist Richard Torrez Jr. (14–0), defending his WBC Americas and WBO NABO Titles.

Ring Magazine Female Fighter of the Year Mizuki Hiruta (10–0) defends her Ring and WBO Titles against Mai Soliman (10–1). It marks her seventh straight WBO defence and first bout on a major card.

Undefeated Ukrainian Daniel Lapin (13-0) will defend his WBA, WBO and IBF Intercontinental Light Heavyweight Ttles against Benjamin Mendes Tani (9-1), whilst Basem Mamdouh (10–2) faces unbeaten American Jamar Talley (6–0) on home soil.

Up and coming Saudi prospect Sultan Almohammed (3-0) continues his run on major undercards with a bout against Indonesian Featherweight Dedy Imprax (2-4).

Emerging Egyptian talent is also featured, with Mahmoud Mobark vs Ali Sserunkuma and Omar Hikal vs Michael Kalyalya.
