Queensberry Promotions sign new boxer after impressive display
Renowned boxing promoter and founder of Queensberry Promotions, Frank Warren, expressed admiration for Liam Cameron following his recent bout against Ben Whittaker. The match, described as chaotic and unusual by many observers, captured the attention of the boxing world.
In a post-fight interview with @IFLTV, Warren remarked, “I think Ben got very lucky.” He clarified that his comment was not in reference to an injury but rather the timing and outcome of the fight. “He was lucky it ended when it did and how it ended,” Warren explained.
Warren believed Cameron was gaining control of the fight. “I really felt he was doing it; he seemed to be absorbing everything Ben had,” he noted, highlighting Cameron's resilience. He added, “I don’t think he was in a position where he thought he could have won the fight,” underscoring Cameron's performance throughout the match.
When asked about the possibility of signing Liam Cameron to Queensberry Promotions, Warren surprised many by revealing that they had already signed him. He also expressed a keen interest in arranging a rematch between Cameron and Whittaker, indicating his confidence in Cameron's future potential.
The fight concluded under peculiar circumstances in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. During the fifth round, both fighters found themselves in a precarious situation when Whittaker leaned against the ropes, causing both men to topple over the top rope and fall heavily outside the ring.
Despite getting up cautiously, Whittaker displayed noticeable signs of discomfort after the fall and was later seen leaving the venue in a wheelchair, raising concerns among attendees.
The fight was ruled a split draw, with two judges scoring it 58-57 for each fighter and the third scorecard tied at the time of the unusual incident. This result has left many speculating about what might have occurred had the fall not taken place.
Following the bout, Whittaker was taken to a medical tent to assess a potential injury to his right leg.
