Troy Williamson and Callum Simpson both made weight today ahead of their high-stakes rematch for the British and Commonwealth Super Middleweight Titles tomorrow night at the First Direct Bank Arena in Leeds, presented by BOXXER and broadcast live and exclusively on DAZN worldwide.  

In a repeat of their dramatic December showdown, the British rivals are set to go to war again in front of a capacity crowd in Leeds. Simpson is seeking revenge after suffering the first defeat of his professional career, while Williamson has vowed to deliver an even more emphatic finish this time around.

"I'm going to brutalise this man," said Williamson after an intense final stare down. Simpson, meanwhile, accused the reigning champion of becoming "complacent", suggesting Williamson had struggled making the weight.

Gradus Kraus leads a stacked undercard as the Dutch knockout artist takes on Sean Hemphill for the WBA Continental Light Heavyweight Title. Hassan Azim faces Jack Martin in a super welterweight contest, unbeaten middleweight prospects Mauro Silva and Mike Tyler Christopher collide, and James Dean Fury makes his highly-anticipated  professional debut.

Quotes

Troy Williamson said: “He's with a great team with Rob, and I respect them a lot. I was with them myself for many years when I boxed for Team GB, so I know what they're all about. They're great coaches, but unfortunately, it's not going to be enough. When I beat Callum on Saturday night, I want my world title shot. I do believe that by the end of 2026, I'll be a world champion.”

Callum Simpson said: “I got caught with a good shot. I got caught too much and let Troy punch me too much. It's not the best idea in a boxing match. I made too many mistakes and paid the price for it. When you're winning it's easy to not look at the mistakes you make and just keep on pushing forward. But after a loss there's time to sit back, reflect and you know realise that some change needs to be made. He thinks he's better than me, I think I'm better than him. We'll find out Saturday night.”
