For the second time this week, Josh Warrington has reached the end of the road of a significant development in his career. The unbeaten featherweight titlist has allowed his promotional contract with Frank Warren and Queensberry Promotions to expire without renewing terms. Queensberry Promotions confirmed the news through an official press statement on Wednesday.
"Frank Warren and Queensberry Promotions can announce that the company has parted ways with IBF world featherweight champion Josh Warrington at the conclusion of his promotional agreement," the statement read. "The now 30-0 man from Leeds joined forces with Queensberry in 2017 and was quickly steered into mandatory position for the world title showdown with Lee Selby that he long craved. This was delivered on a memorable night at Elland Road in May 2018 and Josh subsequently defended in a huge Box Office event against Carl Frampton in the December at Manchester Arena.
"Home advantage for a mandatory defence against fellow Yorkshireman Kid Galahad was secured in June 2019, with his last fight being a voluntary defence against Sofiane Takoucht, which resulted in an emphatic second round victory."
