Ryan Farrag has announced that he is now looking for a new opponent for November 15 as he blasted the talented but frustrating Marcel Braithwaite for ‘going missing’.

After a relatively quiet summer, the northern U.K. boxing scene has begun to crank back to life, and Thursday brought news of two shows – both of which will take place on Nov. 16.

Ryan Farrag returns to the Liverpool Olympia after a 10-year exodus on June 9th, promising his Scouse derby fight against Marcel Braithwaite for the vacant Commonwealth super flyweight title.

Fight fans get a double dose of title action on June 9th with belts on the line at Liverpool’s Olympia, and with all the action broadcast live on Fightzone, and on BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport app and website.

The Liverpool – and British – fight scene just got more interesting with the announcement that Ryan Farrag is back on the comeback trail. The former star amateur hasn’t fought since 2019 but makes a welcome return on February 25th. The Liverpudlian will appear on the undercard of fellow Scouse fighter Connor Butler’s Commonwealth Flyweight Title fight with Craig Derbyshire, LIVE on Fightzone, from Malta.

Anthony Fowler returned to the ring with a win and bounced back from his maiden career defeat. The 28-year-old lost his unblemished record last time out against Scott Fitzgerald and after stepping in for his former foe against Blackpool’s Rose, he got back in the winning column at the Exhibition Centre in Liverpool.

Ryan Farrag will be back in the ring next month. The former European bantamweight champion hasn’t boxed since losing to Sunny Edwards last October. Farrag, who went to Belgium and knocked out Stephane Jamoye to win the blue belt back in 2015, has suffered three losses since the biggest night of his career, including a challenge for the British title against former world champion Ryan Burnett in October 2016.

SUNNY EDWARDS INSISTS it will be his decision alone when it comes to setting the tempo for his big BoxNation bill-topper against Ryan Farrag at York Hall on Friday evening.

Peter Fury is relishing the prospect of unleashing his son Hughie on Kubrat Pulev when the pair collide in an IBF world heavyweight title final eliminator on October 27. Hughie is bidding to earn a shot at IBF world champion Anthony Joshua by silencing Pulev’s fans in Sofia, Bulgaria and Peter Fury has reflected on a lengthy and fully-committed training camp.

UMAR SADIQ only affords his next opponent, Zak Chelli, a puncher's chance when the two unbeaten super middleweights come together in what should be a fascinating match-up at the Brentwood Centre next Saturday (October 20). Sadiq suspects a heavy punch is the only weapon of note in the Chelli armoury and dealing with a puncher is something he is well equipped to withstand.
