Ben Whittaker will fight fellow Briton Liam Cameron in a rematch on 20 April at the BP Pulse Live in Birmingham.<\/b><\/p>\n
The light-heavyweight rivals’ first fight ended in bizarre circumstances<\/a> last October when both men fell over the ropes and Whittaker was unable to continue because of an injury.<\/p>\n The bout was declared a draw and neither man has fought since, with Whittaker nursing a back and ankle injury.<\/p>\n “This is an opportunity for me to give the fans a decisive result,” Whittaker said.<\/p>\n “There’s no doubt in my mind that this time, there will be no room for controversy. This time, we will finish it on my terms.”<\/p>\n Cameron, 34, was a massive underdog against the unbeaten Whittaker and has been campaigning for a rematch ever since.<\/p>\n Many onlookers had Sheffield’s Cameron winning the fight comfortably before it was stopped.<\/p>\n “I feel like I was winning the last fight before he tried pretending to be a WWE star and pulled me over the top rope,” Cameron said. <\/p>\n “I really believe I would have stopped him, but that’s in the past now.”<\/p>\n Whittaker, 27, had an unblemished record before the draw against Cameron.<\/p>\n The Olympian had cruised through his first seven fights as a professional and is regarded as one of the brightest prospects in the UK.<\/p>\n Cameron battled depression and alcohol issues<\/a> while serving a four-year ban from boxing because of an anti-doping violation in 2019.<\/p>\n On the undercard in Birmingham, Frazer Clarke returns to action after the first defeat<\/a> of his career, facing Ebenezer Tetteh.<\/p>\n Lee Cutler faces Sam Eggington in a super-welterweight fight and middleweight Tyler Denny returns from a loss to Hamzah Sheeraz to take on Elvis Ahorgah.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
