Fight Preview
Matchroom Boxing and DAZN are set to organize a junior welterweight bout at the Echo Arena in Liverpool. Jack Catterall, boasting an impressive record of 27 wins and 1 loss, with 13 knockouts, is determined to regain his position in the title contention at the 140 pound weight class. However, before he can seize that opportunity, he must overcome the seasoned veteran Jorge Linares, who holds a commendable record of 47 wins and 8 losses, with 29 knockouts. This Saturday night, the clash between these two fighters will showcase extremely different paths converging into the arena.
Following the tumultuous situation with Josh Taylor, Catterall is now prepared to move forward and pursue opportunities elsewhere. In his quest for another title shot, his upcoming bout against Linares presents an opportunity to gain valuable experience against a world class fighter who may be past his prime but still remains a threat. This will mark Catterall’s second fight of 2023, and a victory could position him for another title opportunity for 2024.
As all of us are aware, the indomitable force of time remains undefeated, and Linares is poised to become its latest casualty in the upcoming weekend. This fight might not end like we expect in a movie, as Linares has already suffered three consecutive defeats, making it highly probable that this bout will prompt his retirement. At the age of 38, regardless of his impressive display of skillful mitt work, Linares will be unable to recapture the magic he once possessed as a lightweight champion. While Linares has enjoyed a commendable career, prolonging his involvement in the sport beyond this fight will only serve to diminish his legacy, as seen from his previous boxing highlights.
Overall we believe Catterall is more than ready to finish things out early against Linares this time around.
