His bout with Paevie will be his first professional fight, having previously defeated Anas Elshayib and Ajmal Khan in exhibition contests.
Belhasa is the son of a billionaire and earlier this year had a fight set up with Floyd Mayweather Jr.
The pair met when Belhasa was young with 50-0 champ Mayweather visiting his father’s zoo – a popular destination for celebrities including Lionel Messi, Nicky Minaj, Cardi B and AJ.
But the proposed fight was cancelled and now Belhasa will turn his attention to Paevie, who has failed to win any of his three professional fights.
Announcing the fight on social media, he said: “Finally announcing my Professional Debut 20th August in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
“Extremely proud to be featuring on Joshua v Usyk card.
“Put in months of hard work and hope to make my country proud on 20th August and fly the flag high for all the Emiratis & Arabs around the world. Big thanks to my team and everyone involved! It’s go time.”
Brit Callum Smith is also set to appear on the Usyk vs Joshua 2 undercard, with Mathieu Bauderlique his opponent.
