Liam Paro’s IBF super-lightweight title victory has opened the door for Matchroom to stage in Australia the “big” fight Eddie Hearn has long wanted

Jack Catterall is expecting the very best Regis Prograis when the two meet in a junior welterweight showdown on August 24 in Manchester.

Jack Catterall and Regis Prograis were in agreement today when they met to formally announce their fight on August 24.

Jack Catterall, fresh off a win over Josh Taylor in their May rematch, will take on Regis Prograis on Aug. 24 in the first boxing event to take place at Co-op Live in Manchester, England.

Arnold Barboza (30-0, 11 KOs) couldn’t help but chuckle when he saw on social media that Matchroom’s Eddie Hearn revealed that he sent an offer to Golden Boy Promotions for him to fight Jack Catterall (29-1, 13 KOs).

Regis Prograis is picking up the pieces after a one-sided December defeat to WBC titleholder Devin Haney, but he is ready to rebuild and revive his career to make a third run at a junior welterweight title.

Jack Catterall's primary focus is securing a fight with WBO super lightweight champion Teofimo Lopez, rather than Regis Prograis

Trainer Joe McNally cut a frustrated figure post-fight following Josh Taylor’s defeat to Jack Catterall (29-1, 13KOs) in an entertaining rematch. The fight between the Anglo-Scottish rivals ebbed and flowed, with both fighters having successes at the First Direct Arena, Leeds.

Promoter Eddie Hearn is hopeful that Jack Catterall’s big win over Josh Taylor in Leeds will bring him closer to a world title fight. Catterall outpointed his bitter rival over 12 fast-paced rounds at the First Direct Arena and was faced with questions about what he wanted to do next.

If Jack Catterall could breathe a huge sigh of relief after finally settling the score with Josh Taylor on Saturday night, the 30-year-old’s trainer, Jamie Moore, could also look back on a job well done.
