The Nottingham Arena in England hosted an all-British rivalry rematch with Leigh Wood and Josh Warrington, as well featuring domestic title action and a WBC championship fight.
In the main event, Wood controlled the rematch from start to finish, boxing out of the southpaw stance and consistently beating Warrington to the punch. His footwork, distance control, and sharper combinations limited Warrington’s usually high output, while clinches and pivots neutralized any forward bursts. After twelve rounds, Wood secured a one-sided unanimous decision, reaffirming his superiority in the rivalry. Both fighters later declined to confirm whether this would be their final appearance in the ring.
