Jack Catterall, Arnold Barboza Jr Make Weight For WBO Interim 140-Pound Title Fight On DAZN
Jack Catterall and Arnold Barboza Jr looked in tip-top shape as they weighed in ahead of their WBO Interim junior-welterweight title clash in Manchester.

The duo are set to headline a card tomorrow night which will take place at Manchester's Co-Op Live Arena and stream live on DAZN from 7pm GMT/2pm ET. The 'Before The Bell' prelims get going from 5pm GMT/12pm ET.

Catterall (30-1, 13 KOs) came in at 139.9 pounds while his Mexican-American counterpart weighed in a smidge lighter at 139.6 pounds.

Current WBO 140-pound champion Teofimo Lopez (21-1, 13 KOs), who also holds The Ring title, has been ordered to face the winner within 180 days of the bout, or he faces vacating his belt.

Chorley's Catterall said: "I’ve got good momentum, I feel better with every camp, this camp has been great, we’ve bettered it from the last time, and I do believe I’m a better fighter and I get him out of there on Saturday.

"I’m in a great division at 140 lbs with a lot of tremendous fighters, but nothing matters until after Saturday night, I have to remain focused on Arnold."

Barboza Jr (31-0, 11 KOs) added: "I believe I’m the best in the division, I don’t think anyone can f--k with me. I’m just confident in myself, at the end of the day we can do all the talking, I know he’s not a trash talker and I’m not a trash talker, Saturday is going to determine everything and that’s all that matters.

"I’ve watched a lot of fights where people have gone to enemy territory and they are getting booed - I hope it’s sold out and I hope I get booed, that’s just going to turn me on."

In the co-feature of the night, Manchester's Zelfa Barrett (31-2, 17 KOs) takes on Liverpudlian Jazza Dickens (34-5, 14 KOs) over 12 rounds in the junior-lightweight division.

Barrett (129 pounds) is a former world title challenger, losing to Shavkat Rakhimov by ninth-round TKO in November 2022 in his challenge for the IBF belt at 130 pounds.

Dickens (129 pounds) is also an ex-IBF title challenger, losing to Kid Galahad in his quest for the 126-pound title in August 2021.
