Ben Whittaker, the Olympic hero, is set to make his return to the boxing ring tonight in what promises to be an exciting match.
Signed to Anthony Joshua’s management company, Whittaker has been making waves since turning pro, defeating several opponents with style and finesse.
Known as ‘Benzo’, Whittaker’s in-ring showboating has caused some controversy, with critics deeming it unnecessary.
Some have even drawn comparisons between his tactics and those of British boxing legend Prince Naseem Hamed. In his last fight against Khalid Graidia, clips of Whittaker’s antics went viral on social media, sparking a heated debate among fans.
This weekend, Whittaker will face off against Leon Willings, who boasts a record of 7-1. The highly anticipated match is scheduled to take place on Sunday, March 31 at the O2 Arena, as part of the undercard for Fabio Wardley vs Frazer Clarke.
For those looking to catch the action live, Whittaker vs Willings will be broadcast on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Arena. Viewers can also stream the fight via the NOW TV and Sky Go apps on their mobile or tablet devices.
In addition to the main event, the card for the evening includes matchups such as Fabio Wardley vs Fraser Clarke for the British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles, Florian Marku vs Chris Kongo, Viddal Riley vs Mikael Lawal, Alen Babic vs Steve Robinson, and Callum Simpson vs Dulla Mbabe.
