This weekend in Liverpool, boxing fans will witness the promising talent of Ben Whittaker as he steps into the ring against Braian Suarez at MandS Arena on Saturday, 18 April. Whittaker, a 28-year-old light heavyweight with a record of 10-0-1 and 7 KOs, replaces WBO champion Callum Smith due to Smith’s injury during training camp. Whittaker has already shown his skills by defeating Benjamin Gavazi in his Matchroom debut last November.
Facing off against Suarez, with a record of 21-4 and 20 KOs, Whittaker aims to continue his undefeated streak. Other matches on the undercard include Molly McCann vs Ashleigh Johnson (junior featherweight), Joe McGrail vs Aaron Hayden (junior featherweight), and Leo Atang vs Viktor Chvarkou (heavyweight). The event kicks off at 7 pm, with Whittaker and Suarez expected to enter the ring around 9.20 pm.
Apart from this exciting bout, upcoming high-profile fights include David Benavidez vs Zurdo Ramirez on 2 May, Fabio Wardley vs Daniel Dubois on 9 May, and Oleksandr Usyk vs Rico Verhoeven on 23 May.
