We were all left frustrated when the planned Jack Catterall vs Regis Prograis Super-Lightweight showdown was postponed in August, no more so than Jack Catterall, who picked up a training injury during the build-up to the originally scheduled clash.
However, the wait further intensifies the anticipation and boxing buffs are now salivating at the prospect of Catterall and Prograis finally getting it on at one of the UK's newest indoor arenas, the Co-op Live, in Manchester on Saturday, October 26.
The August abandonment caused further annoyance for the Catterall camp, as their man ‘El Gato’ was on a roll and gaining momentum following a stunning victory over his bitter rival, Josh Taylor, in an exciting all-British encounter in Leeds in May.
It was redemption for Catterall, whose only previous professional loss came against Josh Taylor in a contentious points defeat during their world title clash in 2022. Catterall, who is top-5 ranked by Ring Magazine and by the WBA, WBC, WBO, and IBF, is now on a three-fight win streak, and he knows he should be rewarded with another world title shot in 2025 if he delivers the goods this weekend.
Getty ImagesCatterall’s opponent in Manchester is the former two-time 140lbs world champ, Regis Prograis. The 35-year-old American, who fights out of New Orleans, is looking to rebuild himself as a creditable world contender following a below-par display against Devin Haney during their title encounter in San Francisco last December.
The defeat, by unanimous decision, saw Prograis lose his WBC belt. Some boxing pundits believe Catterall is catching the American at the perfect time. Still, with 83% of Prograis’ wins by knockout, the Lancashire fighter won’t be underestimating the task that awaits him. Other eye-catching match-ups on Saturday’s Manchester card include the all-English tear-up between Reece Bellotti and Michael Gomez Jr, with the British and Commonwealth Super-Featherweight belt on the line.
