Jamel Herring (24-4, 12 KOs), the former WBO world junior lightweight champion, is poised to enter the ring once more in a compelling matchup against Jackson Jon England (15-3, 8 KOs) on April 3. The 10-round fight, disclosed by Herring's manager Jerry Cazarez, is scheduled to take place at the 36ers Arena in Adelaide, Australia, with live streaming available on the Stan application. A regional title belt will be up for grabs in this eagerly awaited encounter.
Expressing enthusiasm for the upcoming bout, Cazarez highlighted the opportunity it presents for Herring to maintain activity in the ring and vie for a WBO title. A victory in Australia could significantly advance Herring's aspiration to reclaim world title glory, an ambition fully supported by his promoter, Lou DiBella.
Herring, aged 38, is looking to build momentum following a first-round stoppage victory over Nicholas Molina last November. This win marked a return to form for the Coram, N.Y. native, following a loss to Jamaine Ortiz. Herring's tenure as WBO world junior lightweight champion featured notable victories, including a knockout win over Carl Frampton in April 2021, before ceding his title to Shakur Stevenson later that year.
Looking ahead to the challenge, Herring shared his excitement about competing in Australia, viewing it as a chance to engage with new fans and further his career on an international stage. Despite the odds, Herring recognizes England as a formidable opponent and is preparing diligently to ensure a performance that echoes his recent triumph over Molina.
Jackson Jon England, a 26-year-old fighter from Perth, Australia, is eager to bounce back from a unanimous decision loss to Liam Wilson in his last outing. Having previously secured two consecutive wins following a defeat to Paul Fleming in February 2022, England is determined to prove his mettle against the seasoned Herring.
