Josh Taylor vs. Jack Catterall

The OVO Hydro in Glasgow, Scotland 26/2/22

Josh Taylor’s undisputed super-lightweight title fight against top contender Jack Catterall has been postponed after Taylor suffered an injury in training.

The fight was originally scheduled for December 18 at The OVO Hydro in Glasgow, Scotland, but will now take place on Saturday 26 February at the same venue due to a knee injury by Taylor.

Ticket and undercard information will be announced at a later date. The bout will be broadcast live in the UK on Sky Sports and on on ESPN+ in the USA.

Taylor said: “I’m gutted I won’t be able to defend my title on December 18 as originally planned, but I wanted to make sure I was 100 percent healthy to give my incredible fans the show they deserve.

“This homecoming has been a long time in the making, and it will be worth the wait. I will see everyone on February 26.”

Catterall said: “Everything happens for a reason! I am gutted not just for me but for everyone who had planned to go. I will remain professional and continue working for the new date.

“In 2022, I will be world champion. Obstacles like this are nothing new for me. I will turn the frustration into positive energy.”
