Ben Whittaker, the boxing sensation and Olympic silver medalist, is set to grace the ring at BOXXER: RETURN OF THE KING in Bournemouth, scheduled for December 10. This event will feature Whittaker, known for his dynamic and atypical boxing style that has captivated audiences nationwide since his shift to the professional arena. The event is set to be a major draw, with live broadcasts on Sky Sports in the UK and Peacock in the USA.
At 26, Whittaker is circling back to the venue of his professional beginnings, aiming to cap off the year with a performance that will lay the groundwork for an explosive 2024. His originally planned homecoming in November was postponed due to the need for recovery from persistent injuries. However, he assures fans that his upcoming showcase will be a meticulously executed display of his boxing skill.
“I’m eager to climb back into the ring. My style is no secret, so ensure you’re watching on December 10 as I end this year with a performance that will be clinically precise,” stated Whittaker.
Ben Shalom, the mastermind behind BOXXER, expressed his enthusiasm for Whittaker’s return. “Ben Whittaker’s performances are electric, and the fans simply can’t get enough. Despite a few setbacks with injuries after his last fight, I’m thrilled to confirm he’s in peak condition and ready to entertain. On December 10, we’re presenting a chance to witness one of boxing’s most exciting prospects, setting the scene for what promises to be a spectacular 2024 for him.”
The event, set against the coastal backdrop of Bournemouth, will showcase local favorite Chris ‘The Gentleman’ Billam-Smith defending his WBO World Cruiserweight Title against Mateusz Masternak, a seasoned contender with an impressive track record.
Additionally, Bournemouth’s own Lee Cutler, following his triumph in an eliminator bout, is poised for a title fight against Kingsley Egbunike for the vacant English Super-Welterweight Championship. This is part of a thrilling undercard that promises to bring the heat, with more fights to be disclosed.
