It’s less than two
weeks until the heavyweight clash between Daniel Dubois and Joe Joyce takes
place. Both boxers are unbeaten in their careers so far, and it will prove to
be an exciting encounter in the ring. Billed ‘For the Fans’, the bout
will be televised in a u-turn made by promoter Frank Warren, with the fight
slated for November 28th. While the latest
Dubois
v Joyce odds favour the former, who boasts a record of 15 wins from 15
fights, and 14 of those by way of knockout, talk has since turned to the
undercard. It’s set to be a tantalising affair, so let’s take a look
at who else we can expect to see.
Jack Catterall vs Abderrazak Houya
Nicknamed
El Gato, Catterall is certainly a wily cat in the ring. The former British
light-welterweight champion, has also retained his WBO Inter-Continental
light-welterweight title on nine occasions – with a professional record of
25-0 (13 KOs). He will take on the French-Tunisian Hoya, who has a record of
14-2 (2 KOs). Catterall has to be the favourite in their upcoming bout, and
he’s also best-placed to take on
Jose Ramirez for his WBO title. Should he overcome Houya,
it’s believed that Catterall will challenge the winner of the
Ramirez/Taylor unification fight.
David Adeleye vs Danny Whitaker
The
London heavyweight must love a fight behind closed doors, as he will return to
action for a third time this year. Adeleye is only 24 and has a 100% record so
far in his professional career, 3-0 (3 KOs), having previously beaten Phil
Williams and Matt Gordon in the BT Sport Studios. He wiped the floor with the
latter, having spent the summer
sparring with Tyson Fury. He faces a tougher opponent this
time around, in Whitaker. The ‘Big Dawg’ has just come off the back
of a points decision win, but lost out to Nick Webb in the back end of last
year.
Hamzah Sheeraz vs
Guido Nicolas Pitto
The Ilford-based youngster is
highly-touted in the junior-middleweight division and since turning
professional in 2017, Sheeraz boasts an admirable record of 11-0 (7 KOs). In
November of last year, he won the vacant WBO European junior-middleweight
title, also moving up into the top 15 of the WBO rankings with a knockout win
over Ryan Kelly. He retained his title in his previous fight against Paul Keen
and will look to defend it over the Argentinean. Pitto hasn’t fought for
over a year, last losing out to the Polish Fiodor Czerkaszyn and has a record
of 26-7-2.
Jack Massey
vs Mohammad Ali Bayat Farid
And in the cruiserweight
division, Brit Massey faces an eight-round test against a formidable opponent
in the Iran-born Bayat Farid. The fearsome puncher hasn’t lost a bout
since 2014, and is in some form, winning 12 bouts in a row, since drawing with
Lambert Fogoum in Dubai. He boasts a record of 16 wins, all by way of knockout,
while Massey was unbeaten in his professional career, until he took on Richard
Riakporhe at York Hall in December 2019.
Elsewhere…
Cousin of Tyson
Fury, Jack Frankham will look to continue his positive start to his
professional career. He takes on MJ Hall in super-welterweight action. Louie
‘Loco’ Lynn is unbeaten in seven bouts and returns to action against
Paul Holt, while finally Mitchell Barton makes his long-awaited professional
debut. The heavyweight signed a deal with Frank Warren last year, but the
22-year-old’s opponent is yet to be revealed.
