What’s At Stake: The vacant WBO International Junior Welterweight Championship


Analysis: Jack Catterall, still riding high from his May win over Josh Taylor, sees this fight as a chance to cement his position in a stacked 140-pound division. With increased momentum and confidence, he’s poised for what he sees as the biggest test of his career.


Catterall, the UK’s “El Gato,” is confident he can “pick holes” in the seasoned Prograis, the New Orleans fighter known for his strength and skill. Catterall believes a win here could earn him a title shot against top 140-pounders like Teofimo Lopez Jr. or Liam Paro, both highly ranked in the division.


Prograis, meanwhile, is back on the hunt for a title and eager to silence doubters after recent disappointing performances. Known for his powerful punches and relentless pace, Prograis looks to put his name back among the top ranks, declaring, “This is for legacy.” He acknowledges Catterall’s strengths but emphasizes his own motivation to re-establish himself as a dominant force in the ring. Prograis is hungry to reclaim his status, aiming to become a three-time world champion.


To win, Catterall will need to leverage his superior defense and mobility, keeping Prograis on the outside while capitalizing on his own counterpunching abilities. Catterall will look to exploit any signs of fatigue or vulnerability in Prograis, possibly slowing the fight’s pace to avoid risky exchanges.


Prograis should aim to maintain an aggressive pace and bring relentless pressure to disrupt Catterall’s rhythm. By closing the distance and targeting the body, he can break down his opponent and potentially set up a late-round finish. His strength and knockout power will be key, but he’ll need to stay composed and avoid reckless exchanges.

Catterall: -460 ML, +380 KO/TKO, -170 Decision.
