Leigh Wood vs Josh Warrington 2 Breakdown
Leigh Wood and Josh Warrington will run it back 3 years after their initial meeting, in which Wood would stop Warrington in the 7th round of a fun and competitive fight. Their initial bout had Wood's WBA world title on the line, but with every exchange between the two since, it has become obvious that no titles are necessary for this heated rivalry.
The main event holds promise of entertainment, and the undercard is no different. Davis vs Fawas is well matched with both men being main characters in their own right. Dave Allen returns against Berredjem, and while the match-up is not as even as the two bouts topping it on the bill, any time we get to see the White Rhino both in the ring and out, is a comedic pleasure. Sandy Ryan gets another shot at a world title, this time a weight class below. And the promising young prospect Leo Atang continues on with his busy schedule making Saturday 3 fights in as many months.
