The highly anticipated rematch between Josh Taylor and Jack Catterall finally unfolded in a thrilling night of boxing. Taylor emerged victorious in a controversial decision, retaining his undisputed super-lightweight title amidst heated debates over the judges’ scorecards.

Taylor, with a record of 19-1, faced a tough challenge as he aimed to put his earlier controversial victory behind him. The rematch held significant weight, given Taylor’s recent loss to Teofimo Lopez which led to the relinquishing of his WBO belt.

On the other side, Catterall, boasting a 28-1 record, sought redemption after his last win against Jorge Linares. Despite facing numerous delays, Catterall remained determined to settle the score with Taylor in what was a long-awaited grudge match.

The undercard featured impressive performances, with Chev Clarke clinching the British cruiserweight title by defeating Ellis Zorro. Gary Cully secured a dominant victory against former European champion Francesco Patera, while Paddy Donovan showcased his talent by stopping Lewis Ritson in spectacular fashion.

Throughout the night, the boxing world witnessed a mix of intense competition and unexpected outcomes, setting the stage for a memorable showdown between Taylor and Catterall. Fans eagerly awaited the rematch, ready to witness another chapter in the riveting saga between these two formidable fighters.
