George Liddard v Tyler Denny - March 21st

Post by Taansend »

Browsing through future bouts & I saw this little pearler at the Copper Box in 6 weeks.

Great fight for Liddard. Denny is no mug & he'll learn a lot from this bout, win or lose.

The undercard contains the usual Matchroom up & comers. Sains, Visioli, Buttigieg, Bevan & Maca

I really like that Liddard isn't shying away from stiff competition as he moves up the rankings. I wondered if he had bitten off too much with the Conway fight but obviously that wasn't the case, and now he's taking on Denny, who certainly isn't a soft touch.

George Liddard declares intention to become an undisputed world champion ahead of Tyler Denny title defence

‘Billericay Bomber’ George Liddard defends belts to Tyler Denny next

George Liddard insists he is confident of victory over Tyler Denny to kickstart his long-term mission to become a future Undisputed ruler of the world.

The ‘Billericay Bomber’ defends his British and Commonwealth Middleweight Championships for the first time at London’s Copper Box Arena on Saturday, March 21 – live on DAZN.

And just a stone’s throw from his beloved West Ham United Football Club’s home of the London Stadium – where he dreams of headlining one day for a World Title – Liddard (13-0, 8 KOs) is relishing the opportunity to put his skills to the test against the former European Champion Denny (21-3-3, 1 KO) in less than four weeks time.

“Listen, I’m always ready. I don’t play games – I’m an old school fighter,” said Liddard, speaking to Matchroom Boxing.

“I’m always ready for it and I’m looking forward to a good fight. Four weeks to go, and it can’t come soon enough. I’m ready to get the job done.

“This is a leap towards world titles now. I’m chasing everything. If I can get the European title after this, that would be great.

“Tyler Denny is a good opponent. He’s a former European champion. But I have no doubt I will get the job done – and I’ll do it in style on March 21.”

Liddard also revealed he is aiming high with his ambitions of winning more titles, now that Matchroom Boxing has secured a new, long-term five-year deal with the Global Home of Boxing, DAZN.

“Either at 160, 168 or 175, I believe I will one day become an Undisputed World Champion,” Liddard added.

“At some point it will happen. And I hope one day that I will sell out a fight at the London Stadium, live on DAZN.”

The stacked undercard sees Liddard’s Tony Sims-trained stablemate Jimmy Sains (11-0, 10 KOs) put his English Middleweight Title on the line against Derrick Osaze (13-3-0, 3 KOs), whose last fight was a defeat by Liddard in January 2025. Earlier in the night, Leli Buttigieg (11-0, 3 KOs) faces Jake Goodwin (8-2-1, 1 KO) in a final Eliminator for Sains’ strap.

Elsewhere, Giorgio Visioli (10-0, 6 KOs) defends his English Lightweight Championship against Levi Giles (17-2-1, 4 KOs), as bright prospects Taylor Bevan (7-0, 7 KOs), Adam Maca (4-0, 4 KOs) and Connor Mitchell (1-0, 1 KO) all look to catch the eye as young Louie Ward – trained by Tony Sims – makes his professional debut in the Super Featherweight division.

Really good matchup, Tyler's has a very good chance of winning this. The only glaring issue is his lack of power.

My pal beat Louis Ward twice last season, NABC final and ABA quarters, hasn't had a days luck since. Not in the championships this year because his club missed the entry deadline.

It's not my place to say, he's heartbroken from the error.

They're 2-2. Ward beat him in the youths. 1 each on splits so they're well matched. Hammy (my pal, Hamilton Joyce) would never bad mouth anyone but I thought in the Boys club final Hammy won comfortably.
He (Hammy) also shared wins with Fred Pullen who's just turned over with Sam Jones.

thanks Mickey sounds like your mate could make a good go of it if he did turn over.

I do like how Barry Jones is very self-effacing he rips himself even though he was a world champion.

That left hook that Barry clipped Freitas with was a pretty special moment too, even if he didn’t win the fight.

huge heart too, down 6 times and got back up.

I love the random fact that he shares heritage with Naz as he's part Yemeni!

he has one of the best jobs in sport, fair play to him as he was forced to retire and has built a cracking career.
