BEN WHITTAKER has vowed to “proper that flawed” after what passed off towards Liam Cameron again in October.
Their mild heavyweight bout on the Artur Beterbiev-Dmitry Bivol undercard made its personal headlines due to how the battle completed. After 5 aggressive rounds the battle was over within the sixth when each males fell over the ropes injuring Whittaker’s ankle and neck within the course of. The end result was a technical draw with the scorecards studying 58-58, 58-57 and 57-58.
The ending left Cameron, 23-6-1 (10 KOs), indignant and pissed off which led to the Yorkshireman criticising and mocking Whittaker, 8-0-1 (5 KOs), on-line. Since their battle on October 12 the 2020 Olympic Silver medallist has mentioned nothing till a public exercise on the IBA Champions’ Night time this week.
“I couldn’t proceed, however after I go and beat him within the subsequent battle, I’ll have so much to say then,” Whittaker commented.
A rematch will not be simple, nonetheless. Cameron, who was a free agent, is now promoted by Frank Warren and Queensberry Promotions. Whereas Whittaker is promoted by Boxxer and Ben Shalom. And as we noticed throughout October 12 battle week the connection between Warren and Shalom isn’t the most effective.
“You by no means know what he’s going to do, along with his promotional deal now he may need a unique route [in mind], would possibly assume: ‘I don’t want that now.’,” Whittaker mentioned.
“However after the again of that, the way in which folks have been speaking, it’s solely proper. I simply need to proper that flawed, present how good I’m and transfer on to the subsequent.”
