ESPN+ to stream Taylor vs. Caterall II

ESPN+ will broadcast the highly anticipated rematch between former world junior welterweight champion Josh Taylor (pictured) and Jack Catterall this Saturday, May 25th at 3:15 p.m. ET/12:15 p.m. PT exclusively in the U.S. The event takes place at First Direct Arena in Leeds, England.  Since the controversial split decision in February 2022, when Taylor (19-1, 13 KOs) protected his unbeaten record to retain his undisputed junior welterweight title, he and Catterall (28-1, 13 KOs) have been engaged in a heated war of words. The fierce rivals will go head-to-head again in Saturday’s twelve-round junior welterweight contest in an eagerly anticipated rematch. Calling the action will be Hall of Famer Timothy Bradley, Jr. and Bernardo Osuna, who was recently inducted into the National Boxing Hall of Fame. ESPN UK’s James Regan will be on the ground in Leeds, providing the latest news from the pre-fight press conference, weigh-in, and fight night.

Josh Taylor vs. Jack Catterall 2, twelve rounds, junior welterweight;
