At just 21-years-old, the American southpaw fighter would become the youngest active world champion if he beats Britain\u2019s Noakes at <\/span>The Ring IV: Night of the Champions<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n Abdullah Mason vs Sam Noakes is just one of four world title fights on Saturday\u2019s <\/span>Ring IV: Night of Champions<\/span><\/i> card in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
