Ben Whittaker and Liam Cameron Set for Highly Anticipated Rematch
Ben Whittaker’s manager, Lee Eaton, has confirmed that a rematch between Whittaker and Liam Cameron is on the horizon. This follows their previous encounter on October 12, which was part of the undercard for the main event featuring Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol.
The initial bout ended unexpectedly in the fifth round when both fighters collided and fell onto the top rope, leading them to tumble out of the ring. The impact caused Whittaker to sustain injuries, ultimately preventing him from continuing the fight. The bout was declared a split decision draw, leaving fans disappointed and eager for a rematch.
Due to his injuries, Whittaker had to be taken from the arena in a wheelchair and will not fight again this year, as confirmed by his promoter, Ben Shalom. However, Whittaker recently updated fans on social media, stating that his recovery is progressing well.
Eaton took to X to share that he has already had discussions with Cameron’s lawyer about securing the rematch. “Had a good chat with his lawyer last night—interesting convo. The rematch will happen, I’m sure of it,” Eaton wrote.
For now, fans will need to monitor Whittaker’s recovery, but all signs point to a potential rematch against Cameron in 2025.
