The Saudi sports federation have confirmed that the ring walks for the fight will start at 11:20pm.
The walks will begin after a musical performance put on by the Saudi state followed by the Saudi national anthem.
AJ and Ngannou’s mega bout will follow on from Zhilei Zhang vs Joseph Parker, which sees the interim WBO Heavyweight Championship being put on the line.
Zhang vs Parker will follow a standard boxing set up of 12 three minute rounds but Joshua vs Ngannou will be just 10.

The former UFC legend came in at 272.6lbs (19st 6oz) whereas Joshua weighed 252.4lbs (18st).
Both men came in heavier than in their previous fights as they look to get the upper hand in the heavyweight clash.
