Josh Taylor vs Ekow Essuman – Substantial Fight Preview and forecasts
Josh Taylor first appears in 2025 on Saturday at OVO Hydro, Glasgow, and the Scot tries to breathe a recent life in his career, going to a welterweight to face Ekow Essuman to get a free international title of WBO.
Queensberry Frank Warren promotes Taylor vs Essuman, and Dazn Tels Gelive.
Taylor (19-2, 13 KO) dropped dramatically after cleaning the super featherlight division in May 2021. Durable points win with Jose Ramirez in Las Vegas This made him an undisputed champion.
The 34-year-old sticking to his wealth of belts in February 2022, but he looked very content to keep in a judgment in the case of Jacek Cattell in Glasgow, and just over a year later he saw the first defeat when Teofimo Lopez won on the cards to take the crown of WBO in Fresh York.
The rematch from Cattell was demolished, but he was still postponed, and they both finally met in Leeds in May last year, and Chorley’s man took revenge with the useful success of points.

The reconstruction now begins with “Tartan Tornado” and is in the face of tough Essuman (21-1, 8 KO) in its debut 147 pounds.
Born in Botswana, but a long -term resident of Nottingham, “engine” previously prevailed as a British and community champion, but he lost these titles to Harry Scarff because of his decision in November 2023.
Since then, the 36-year-old has moved away, taking the invincible records of Owen Cooper (TKO10), and recently Ben Vaughan, winning a majority victory in November in Birmingham.
Collins meets McGregor
Undercard directs the intriguing clash in a featherweight when Nathaniel Collins and Lee McGregor block the horns in the entire brush for the free WBC Silver Feather Wweight title.
Collins (16-0, 7 KO) won the British belts and the community of nations, but only once in 2024 and shook off the rust in February, winning all eight rounds against Darwing Martinez.
McGregor (15-1-1, 11 KO) did the same in Bantamweight and was very advertised, but saw his star disappeared a bit in July 2023, when Erik Robles Ayala won the victory of points for Super Bantamble in Edinburgh.
“Błyskawica” won three in a row, the last victory in points against Isaac Lowe to accept the international WBC belt in December.
Ituma is fighting with Balogun
Moses Itauma (11-0, 9 KO) did not have to pass the second round in four fights in 2024, the last blowjob of Desey McKean in Riyadhu, and he should remove Mike Balogun (21-1, 16 Kos) early in their planned tough turnover, with the American in second place through Murata Gassiev in 2023
Other card
Aloys Junior (9-1, 8 KO) is on the eye, and the cruiser’s weight should send David Jamieson (13-3, 10 KO) at their planned ten round distances.

In the only eight rounds of attractions, Luke McCormack (3-0, 2 KO) can continue his education thanks to the victory in Panama Samir Cuentes (4-5) in Super Lightweight.
In the only six rounds, Marcus Sutherland (7-0, 4 KO) can also win at an early stage of his featherweight meeting with Dylan Nixon (0-2).
In four circles, Alex Arthur debuts and should start with a point success in Super Middle weight against Robbie Chapman (13-49-9, 2 KO) and Drew Limond (3-0, 1 KO), son of Willie Limond, should triumph over cards against Ezequiele Gregor (3-22).
At a featherlight level, Lee Welsh (4-0, 1 KO) should pass by Tony Morton (1-17) early, and Luke Bibby (9-1, 2 KO) can return from defeat recently to overtake Cesar Ignacio Predes (18-18-1, 5 KO), also featherlight.
Reese Lynch, a super featherlight debutant, should start winning with Jonatas Rodrigo Gomes de Oliveira (6-26, 5 KO).

On Wednesday, Lewis Crocker heads to Australia to defend his IBF welterweight world title against Liam Paro for the first time.
Crocker will face Paro at the Pat Rafter Arena in Queensland, live on DAZN in the UK and Kayo Sports in Australia.
Crocker (22-0, 11 KO) became world champion in September, defeating Paddy Donovan twice before winning the rematch by split decision.
Man from Belfast recorded his second victory over Donovan after the first victory in March last year, and his rival was disqualified for hitting him after the bell.
Paro (27-1, 16 KO) is trying to become a world champion in two weight categories, having previously reigned in the super-lightweight division.
The 30-year-old won the title with a unanimous decision victory over Subriel Matias in Puerto Rico before winning the belt in his first defense against Richardson Hitchins.
The Australian has since won twice, overtaking David Papot in his last appearance in September.
McKean meets Taliva
Heavyweight Demsey McKean will look to continue his rebuild when he faces Liam Talivaa for the vacant IBF Pan Pacific title.
McKean (24-2, 16 KO) had his career cut miniature after a last-round loss to Filip Hrgovic, followed by a brutal first-round loss to Moses Itauma.

The 35-year-old southpaw returned to winning ways with back-to-back stoppage victories.
Talivaa (8-2, 4 KO) last won the IBF Oceania-Orient title, defeating Faiga Opelu by first-round stoppage.
Undercard remaining
At cruiserweight, Luke Modini (13-0, 11 KO) will likely need distance to beat Peng Qu (17-2-1, 12 KO), while Riley Candy (8-1, 5 KO) could stop Nathan Watson (11-3, 3 KO) at super middleweight.
Vegas Larfield (13-1, 9 KO) can hand Shamal Ram Anuj (11-8, 8 KO) his fourth defeat in a row in a featherweight clash.
Heavyweight Nelson Asofa-Solomon (2-0, 2 KO) can secure a third straight knockout over debutant George Burgess, and Stevan Ivic (8-0-1, 2 KO) can do the same against Caleb Tialu (3-7, 3 KO), also a heavyweight.
Prospective super welterweight fighter Jack Javed (1-0) should overtake Lance McDonald (1-5-1, 1 KO).
