Ben Whittaker and Liam Cameron Headline Birmingham Boxing Event in Anticipated Rematch

The British boxing scene is set for an electrifying showdown as Ben Whittaker (8-0-1, 5 KOs) and Liam Cameron (23-6-1, 10 KOs) prepare to settle their rivalry in a rematch. The light-heavyweight bout will headline a boxing event at Birmingham’s BP Pulse Live Arena on April 20th.

Their first encounter in Riyadh last October ended in controversy, with Whittaker escaping with a technical split draw despite Cameron’s apparent control of the fight. The match, which featured on the undercard of the Beterbiev-Bivol event, saw Olympic silver medalist Whittaker struggle against Cameron’s relentless pressure.

The rematch offers both fighters a chance to prove themselves definitively. Whittaker, known for his showmanship and slick boxing style, aims to silence doubters and showcase his true potential. Cameron, nicknamed ‘The Cannonball’, seeks to confirm his dominance and secure the victory he believes he deserved in their first meeting.

Whittaker expressed confidence in his ability to deliver a decisive result this time, stating, “There will be no room for controversy. We will finish it on my terms.” Cameron, equally determined, responded, “I’m ready to go on April 20th and finish the job.”

The event will also feature exciting bouts, including a clash between Sam Eggington (35-9, 20 KOs) and Lee Cutler (15-1, 7 KOs) in the super-welterweight division. Additionally, heavyweight Frazer Clarke (8-1-1, 6 KOs) returns to the ring following his recent defeat.

Boxing fans can expect an night of intense action and potential fireworks as these skilled fighters face off in Birmingham.
