Jack Catterall will climb to welterweight on Saturday, 5 July, meeting unbeaten Harlem Eubank in a DAZN-streamed main event from Manchester’s AO Arena. The matchup gives Catterall a chance to rebound from February’s split-decision loss to Arnold Barboza Jr. and erase memories of a frustrating 18-month 140-lb campaign that saw him beat Regis Prograis but fall controversially to Josh Taylor and Barboza.

For Eubank, nephew of the legendary Chris Sr., the fight is sink-or-swim: victory elevates the Brighton stylist from domestic attraction to bona-fide contender, while defeat would underline pundits’ doubts about his power and top-tier readiness. The 31-year-old is riding a four-fight knockout streak, most recently dismantling Tyrone McKenna in March.
At 147 lbs Catterall says he expects “more snap and volume now I’m not boiling down.” The Chorley southpaw brings ring IQ, a sharp back-hand and the incentive of re-entering world-title conversations in a division suddenly flush with opportunity. Eubank counters that his footwork and timing will negate Catterall’s experience: “Undefeated for a reason - I’ll stay that way on July 5.”
In the co-main event former IBF junior-lightweight champion Joe Cordina climbs back through the ropes to face Mexico’s Jaret Gonzalez. Fourteen months have passed since Cordina’s weight-drained stoppage loss to Anthony Cacace, yet the Welshman insists a fresh start at 135 lbs and a new Matchroom deal can reignite the career once tipped for pound-for-pound heights.

Cordina (17-1, 9 KOs) was fast-tracked after an amateur haul that included European gold and a Rio Olympic berth, reaching his zenith with a spectacular two-round knockout of Kenichi Ogawa. Injury, a stripped belt, and narrow escapes against Shavkatdzhon Rakhimov and Edward Vazquez followed, before the wheels finally came off against Cacace last May. A proposed WBC lightweight title shot at Shakur Stevenson collapsed when the American injured his shoulder, leaving Cordina idle and increasingly restless.
Now 33, Cordina returns to the division where he once held British and Commonwealth straps. Standing opposite is Gonzalez (17-1, 13 KOs), a 24-year-old puncher who rebounded from a lone 2021 knockout defeat by rattling off five lower-tier wins in Mexico. The Cardiff stylist carries the pedigree; the Guadalajara outsider, the hunger to seize the spotlight.
“People judge you on the last fight,” Cordina admitted at the announcement presser. “On July 5 I remind them who I really am - and lightweight is the perfect stage to do it.”
