The rivalry between Scotland’s Josh Taylor and England’s Jack Catterall is far from over. Their previous encounter in 2022 ended with Taylor winning a controversial unanimous decision from the judges. However, his reign as the division’s top fighter was short-lived, as he was defeated by Teofimo Lopez in his next bout in 2023.
Now 33, Taylor is aiming to revive his career, and a rematch with Catterall on April 27th is generating significant interest. Taylor is determined to put all doubts about the first fight to rest. He is confident that Catterall won’t be able to defeat him this time either. Taylor expressed his eagerness to settle the score and put an end to the ongoing discussions about their previous bout.
Expressing his frustration with the prolonged negotiations, Taylor also addressed the tension with Catterall during their second-round press conference. The animosity between the two fighters is palpable as they prepare for the upcoming rematch.
Taylor sees the upcoming fight as a decisive moment for both of them. He believes that a victory over Catterall will leave his opponent with no choice but to retire without glory. In no uncertain terms, Taylor declared, “On April 27th, I will end the career of Jack Catterall.”
