REGIS PROGRAIS brought on a little bit of a stir at at the moment’s ultimate press convention for his struggle towards Jack Catterall on Saturday night time.

The build-up to the primary occasion on the Co-op Dwell Area in Manchester has been very amicable between each fighters with neither antagonising the opposite.

Nevertheless, there was a plot twist at the moment on the high desk simply because the press convention ended.

“Maintain on, maintain on, I’m going to slash all the pieces proper now,” Prograis chimed.

“An extended, very long time in the past his [Catterall] supervisor Sam Jones…. the place you at?”

The 2-time super-lightweight champion made certain he acquired the eye of Catterall’s supervisor who was within the crowd watching.

“Sam truly mentioned I’ll beat Jack’s ass an extended, very long time in the past,” Prograis revealed. “And I acquired proof if you wish to hear it.”

“He mentioned ‘flatten him’,” Prograis added.

Jones, microphone in hand, then had his proper to answer.

“Hand to God I by no means mentioned that. You’ve been hit within the head an excessive amount of by Devin Haney,” Jones mentioned.

Prograis, who by this time had his cell phone prepared, then pressed play on the recording he had of Jones.

“I like Jack by the way in which, I do know him very effectively however I feel you flatten him. You perceive what I imply? You’re a unique man to Josh Taylor.”

There was extra to the audio but it surely was drowned out by the group’s response and the shock of Eddie Hearn as effectively.

“That is earlier than I knew Jack and I’d by no means met Jack earlier than,” Jones countered.

It stays to be seen if this does something to the connection between Catterall and Jones – who vowed to get his personal again on Prograis through social media – but it surely definitely put a cat among the many pigeons at at the moment’s ultimate press convention.
