Ben Shalom expects Ben Whittaker to fight for titles this year, as his latest fight is announced.
The light heavyweight is known for his showboating in the ring, and he will likely put that on display once more on February 3, on the Joshua Buatsi vs. Dan Azeez undercard at Wembley Arena (live on Peacock in the US).
He will come up against a French rival, Khalid Graidia.
“This is the start to a huge year for Ben Whittaker,” Shalom told Sky Sports.
“He will bring his star power to an already massive night for the light-heavyweight division on February 3 in London. Ben is a special talent and we expect to see him headlining shows and fighting for major titles this year.”
Whittaker added: “The Surgeon is back and ready to start 2024 with another clinical performance.
“I’m putting the whole light-heavyweight division on notice. Another big year is on the way so don't miss the start of it on February 3.”
