Whittaker vs Cameron: The Redemption Clash - Light-Heavyweight Rematch Set for Birmingham

Ben Whittaker and Liam Cameron prepare for a decisive rematch on 20 April in Birmingham, following their controversial draw last October.

The Stage is Set for a Decisive Rematch

The BP Pulse Live in Birmingham will host a highly anticipated rematch between light-heavyweights Ben Whittaker and Liam Cameron on 20 April 2025. This bout comes after their first encounter ended in bizarre circumstances last October, where both fighters fell over the ropes, leading to a draw.

Whittaker's Comeback Trail

Ben Whittaker, 27, has been nursing a back and ankle injury since the draw but is determined to settle the score. "This is an opportunity for me to give the fans a decisive result," Whittaker stated confidently. "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."

Cameron's Redemption Arc

Liam Cameron, 34, was considered an underdog in their first fight but had been gaining momentum before the unfortunate incident. "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 remarked. "I really believe I would have stopped him, but that's in the past now."

The Undercard Highlights

The event also features Frazer Clarke returning to action after his first career defeat, facing Ebenezer Tetteh. Additionally, Lee Cutler will take on Sam Eggington in a super-welterweight clash, and Tyler Denny will return from a loss to Hamzah Sheeraz to fight Elvis Ahorgah.

Looking Ahead

This rematch is not just a fight but a battle for redemption and legacy in the light-heavyweight division. With both fighters eager to prove their superiority, the Birmingham crowd is in for a thrilling night of boxing. Stay tuned for more updates and prepare for an unforgettable showdown!
