Mbilli isn't backing down. His promoter Camille Estephan told Sky Sports: "Christian will arrive in Saudi as planned.

It's a significant fight for Canelo. It will be his first bout since Terence Crawford defeated him in a spectacular performance in 2025.
When Crawford retired the super-middleweight titles scattered.
Canada's Mbilli is undefeated, winning the WBC interim 168lb belt when he beat Maciej Sulecki. He retained the strap when he drew with Lester Martinez last year. He was then upgraded to full world championship status when Crawford vacated the title.
Mexican superstar Canelo, looking to come back with a win and reclaim his old title, has boxed in Riyadh once before, a unanimous points win over William Scull.
Other sports events, like tennis' Six Kings Slam, that were due to take place in Riyadh have been postponed.
