Former contender for the world super lightweight title Jack Catterall (26-1, 13 KOs) will return to the ring on March 25 in London. The name of the Englishman's opponent has not yet been announced.
The 29-year-old boxer will return to the ring after losing last year to Josh Taylor. The decision of the judges to award the victory to the Scot was very ambiguous and caused a lot of controversy.
There has been talk of a rematch for several months now, but due to Taylor's lingering health issues, Catterall will now be back in the ring with another opponent. Ben Shalom, the promoter of the Englishman, in the face of Taylor's unpreparedness, will try to organize a fight between Catterall and Regis Prograis, who recently won the WBC world title.
