Jack Catterall and Regis Prograis meet this weekend, and the winner is almost certain to face a world champion in the new year.
The pair both rank highly at super-lightweight so this fight, live on DAZN, will tell us who’s in a better position to push on and secure themselves a huge opportunity in 2025.
Catterall enters the bout in the best form of his career following an excellent three-year period that could've seen him be crowned world champion.
In 2022, most people in boxing believed Catterall had done enough defeat Josh Taylor, but the judges disagreed as the Chorley man was controversially beaten for the first time in his career.
Since that unfortunate setback, Catterall has responded well, and he’s scored an impressive win over Jorge Linares as well as settling the series with Taylor.
The Taylor win has pushed Catterall closer to a world title showdown, but first he must get past Prograis.
The New Orleans man almost ruled the super-lightweight division in 2019, but he was narrowly beaten by Taylor in a high-quality fight.
A two-time world champion, Prograis is aware of what it takes to reign in his weight class, but dies he still have enough to register a big win over Catterall?
With home advantage and excellent performances in his recent fights, Catterall begins the bout a significant favourite with all bookmakers.
DAZN Bet has him at 2/9 but with the bout expected to be close, it could be worth exploring other markets.
All of Catterall’s last six fights have gone the distance and he hasn’t stopped an opponent since 2019.
Prograis’ most recent bouts, against Haney and Danielito Zorilla, have reached the final bell, so it appears likely that the judges will be needed in this one.
Catterall via decision is 8/15 and that could be the best bet as the local favourite impresses in front of his loyal supporters in a fight that delivers.
