Josh Taylor wants to reign his career at Welterweight tonight in a crucial struggle against Ekow Essuman at the main event of the SSE Arena in Glasgow, Scotland. Taylor (19-2, 13 kos) enters the battle with enormous pressure after two consecutive defeats at 140. He seemed horrible in the loss to Jack Catterall and Teophimo Lopez.
Will show the main card tonight Live in Dazn At 14:00 ET / 11:00 AM, the approximate time for the rings walks is 17:00 ET / 2:00 pm pt.
“The Tornado tornado” Taylor wants to show fans that he has not been washed at the age of 34. Its goal to move towards the heavy weight is to become a world champion of two divisions and to participate in large fights in the division. You have to look very well tonight against Essuman (21-1, 8 kos) to show the boxing world that has not ended as a fighter. Taylor is the number 11 WBC and the number 11 from Wbo to Welterweight.
Today’s card
Josh Taylor vs. Ekow essuman
Nathaniel Collins vs. Lee McGregor
Moses Ituma vs. Mike Balogun
Aloys Junior vs. Davie Jamieson
Luke McCormack vs Samir Cuentas
Alex Arthur Jr. vs. Robbie Chapman
Drew Limond Vs. Ezequiel Gregorez
With the advanced age of Taylor, it has no choice but to begin to take immediately the most dangerous contestants available and to fight frequently if it has a world title shot. You cannot afford to fulfill its schedule for a year and it will age if you continue to fight welcome weights at a strip level like Essuman.
For Essuman, 36, this is a great opportunity to insert into the heavyweight landscape to get a great struggle before his career ends. Could open the door to fights against other contestants if you can beat Taylor. Ekow will not get a title shot about Taylor, but could fight contestants like Karen Chukhadzhian or Lewis Crocker.
“It’s a dangerous struggle. Ekow is not the most dangerous guy in the world, but he can fight, and he is really in shape, hard and ended,” said commentator Carl Frampton a Dazn boxSpeaking of what Josh Taylor is against tonight, fighting Ekow Essuman.
“Lowering your toes for the first time in Welterweight, you probably should have excused Josh to fight more easily.”
