Upcoming Rematch: Eubank Jr. vs. Benn
On November 15, the highly anticipated rematch between Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn will take place at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, featuring notable fighters Adam Azim and Jack Catterall on the undercard.
Adam Azim’s Rising Star
Adam Azim, who boasts an unbeaten record of 13 wins and 10 knockouts, is setting his sights on a title shot in the junior welterweight division. After making waves with a notable knockout of former champion Sergey Lipinets in February, Azim is preparing for his next bout against Russian boxer Zaur Abdullaev this November. The 23-year-old has become a standout figure in British boxing but has seen a hiatus in action due to changes in his promotional alignment—specifically, a switch from BOXXER‘s previous partnership with Sky Sports to a new agreement with the BBC that was announced in August, following the end of the Sky deal earlier in the summer.
Jack Catterall’s Comeback
In addition to Azim, former title contender Jack Catterall will also be stepping back into the ring. The fighter from Chorley, currently holding a record of 31 wins and 13 knockouts, is aiming to reestablish his title ambitions after experiencing setbacks including a loss in a world title eliminator against Arnold Barboza Jr. this past February and a contentious victory over Harlem Eubank in July. Catterall is set to challenge Ekow Essuman, who recently defeated Josh Taylor and carries a record of 22 wins with 8 knockouts. This matchup is anticipated to be a compelling clash, given both boxers’ aspirations and previous performances.
Action-Packed Undercard
Moreover, the undercard promises to be action-packed, including a heavyweight clash featuring Richard Riakporhe against Tommy Welch, as well as a bout between junior middleweights Ishmael Davis and Sam Gilley, further showcasing the depth of talent in British boxing on this exciting night.
