One of the most exciting up-and-coming talents in the world of boxing, Ben Whittaker, is set to display his skills in Liverpool this upcoming weekend. The 28-year-old will step into the ring against Braian Suarez at the MandS Arena on Saturday, April 18. Viewers can catch the action by live streaming the bout on DAZN.
Whittaker, a light heavyweight with a record of 10 wins, 0 losses, and 1 draw, including 7 knockouts, was called in to replace WBO champion Callum Smith due to an injury during Smith’s training camp. Known for his impressive performance in his Matchroom debut last November where he defeated Benjamin Gavazi in the first round, Whittaker is seen as one of the sport’s most promising prospects.
Looking to keep his undefeated streak intact, Whittaker will face off against Suarez, an Argentine boxer with a record of 21 wins and 4 losses, including 20 knockouts. Suarez is coming off a second-round TKO victory over Sergio Santos Dantas in November.
Alongside the main event, the undercard features other exciting matchups including Molly McCann vs Ashleigh Johnson in the junior featherweight category, Joe McGrail vs Aaron Hayden in the junior featherweight division, and Leo Atang vs Viktor Chvarkou in the heavyweight class. The event’s coverage will kick off at 7pm, with the Whittaker vs Suarez fight expected to start around 9.20pm.
The Whittaker vs Suarez showdown is just one of the many high-profile fights scheduled in the boxing world, with matchups like David Benavidez vs Zurdo Ramirez on May 2, Fabio Wardley vs Daniel Dubois on May 9, and Oleksandr Usyk vs Rico Verhoeven on May 23 also lined up.
