BEN WHITTAKER makes his return to the ring this weekend and all eyes will be on the Olympic hero’s fight.
‘Benzo’, who is signed to Anthony Joshua’s management company, has been on fire since turning pro, blasting out several opponents and looking stylish in the process.
His in-ring showboating has been a constant source of controversy, however, with detractors calling it unnecessary.
Some have likened his tactics to that of British boxing legend Prince Naseem Hamed.
His last fight, in particular, caused a storm, with clips of his antics against overmatched opponent Khalid Graidia going viral on social media.
This weekend he’s back in action against Leon Willings, who has a record of 7-1.
