On February 3, British boxing sensation Ben Whittaker is ready to make waves as he steps into the ring against Swiss-based French fighter Khalid Graidia in an eight-round battle.
This showdown will unfold on the undercard of the highly anticipated clash between undefeated world-ranked light-heavyweights Joshua Buatsi and Dan Azeez at the OVO Arena Wembley in London, broadcast live on Sky Sports.
Whittaker, boasting a perfect 5-0 record, concluded the previous year with a stunning knockout of Stiven Leonetti Dredhaj in December. The Tokyo Olympic silver medallist aims to kick off the new year with another sensational performance against Graidia, who has previously faced Whittaker's domestic rivals Zach Parker, Ezra Taylor, and Karol Itauma in London. Notably, Graidia went the distance with British and Commonwealth Champion Dan Azeez in Milan.
"He will bring his star power to an already massive night for the light-heavyweight division on February 3 in London. Ben is a special talent, and we expect to see him headlining shows and fighting for major titles this year," says a spokesperson.
In addition to Whittaker's compelling bout, the undercard features Adam Azim defending his European super-lightweight title against undefeated former champion Enock Poulsen. The boxing enthusiasts are in for a treat as these talented fighters converge for an unforgettable night of action at Wembley Arena.
