Lewis Ritson

Five years after his lone stoppage loss against Josh Taylor, Ohara Davies is looking to get a crack at the WBA Super Lightweight Championship. The next step on his journey toward a world title will take place on June 18, 2022 at the Leeds United FC Banqueting Suite. The 30-year-old contender is looking to sort out his dispute with Lewis Ritson over 10 rounds. Given that both men are relatively the same age with the exact same record, it could be a “loser leaves town” type of battle. Despite the stakes, Davies is confident that he’ll come out on top.

One week after staging its inaugural event in Dubai, Probellum will head to Sunderland for its first card on UK soil. The main event sees Lewis Ritson (21-2, 12 KO) fight for the first time since a one-sided stoppage loss to Jeremias Ponce in an IBF eliminator last June, which snapped a four-fight winning streak that probably should have snapped against Miguel Vazquez in his previous effort. He meets Mexico’s Christian Uruzquieta (20-4-2, 7 KO), who’s largely split his time between fighting in his home country and Canada. The 31-year-old’s career highlight is likely his 2019 draw with Will Madera.
