Lee Wood (28-3, 17 KOs) won two months ago Josh Warrington (31-3-1, 8 KOs), although he lost on points in the middle of the fight. Lee has something to prove, and he seeks revenge on his compatriot.

“Before our first meeting there was great respect on both sides, but then he suddenly became very bitter and spoke worse and worse about me. We will no longer treat each other well. “I won, but I want to beat him even more convincingly,” said Wood, who after the victory gave up his WBA featherweight belt and announced a move to the second featherweight division.

“I have two fights in mind. I would like to fight Emanuel Navarrete because he is number one in the featherweight division, but I know the fans really want my rematch with Warrington and I box for them. So I don’t rule out the possibility that I will meet Warrington again soon, perhaps in the next fight,” added Wood.
