Jack Catterall vs. Regis Prograis and undercard: Prediction, Preview, and Betting Odds

This Saturday, October 26th, at the Co-op Live Arena in Manchester, Jack Catterall takes on Regis Prograis. Both fighters are looking to make a statement and propel themselves back into world title contention.

The undercard isn’t all that bad either, a crop of up-and-coming British fighters, topped with a very exciting fight for the British Super Featherweight and Commonwealth Boxing Council Super Feather titles between Reece Bellotti vs Michael Gomez Jr.

Check out our predictions for each fight, as well as our fight night accumulator below:

Jack Catteral (the undisputed champion who never was) exacted some revenge in a rematch with Taylor earlier back in May, and now faces a still live opponent in Prograis.

"Rougarou" Prograis, a former world champion with 24 KOs in 29 fights, hasn't quite looked the same since his thrilling fight-of-the-year contender against Josh Taylor and period of inactivity under Probellum and ‘Disrupt’ promotions. Recent performances against Devin Haney and Danielito Zorrilla (a fight many believe he was lucky to win) have raised questions about his current form. He's looked slow and sluggish, lacking the explosiveness that once made him a feared knockout artist.

Catterall, a skilled boxer with a tight defence and excellent ring IQ, has the tools to outpoint Prograis. However, fighting in front of a passionate home crowd in the North West could be a double-edged sword. He could be tempted to abandon his advantages and engage in a firefight to entertain the fans, but he’s always shown the discipline to stick to his game plan up to this point, making it unlikely.

Expect a calculated and tactical performance from Catterall. He'll use his movement and boxing skills to frustrate Prograis, picking his shots carefully and avoiding unnecessary risks. While a stoppage is unlikely, Catterall should be able to dominate the rounds and secure a comfortable victory on the scorecards.

Our prediction: A wide points win for Catterall.

This fight has all the makings of fight of the night. It's a tough one to call, with both fighters bringing unique strengths to the ring.

Bellotti seems to have found his rhythm in recent fights, securing unanimous decision victories over Liam Dillon in February and Levi Giles in July. He's been active and looks sharp coming into this contest.

Gomez Jr., on the other hand, is a tall and awkward fighter with a relentless engine and a granite chin. He's known for his toughness and ability to make fights messy.

While Gomez Jr. presents a stylistic challenge, Bellotti's experience and recent form give him the edge. Expect a close and competitive fight, but ultimately Bellotti's experience and ring generalship should see him through.

Prediction: A win for Reece Bellotti, either by late stoppage or on points.

Pat McCormack, an Olympic silver medalist, is rapidly becoming a force to be reckoned with in the welterweight division, both in the UK and worldwide. He carries significant power, having secured 4 KOs in his 5 professional fights.

Herrera, who was stopped in the 7th round by Daddy Donovan in his last visit to the UK, will need to be wary of McCormack's power.

Expect McCormack to be too strong and skilled for Herrera. He'll likely dictate the pace from the opening bell and look to land his powerful shots.

Prediction: A McCormack win.

Campbell Hatton, son of the legendary Ricky Hatton, has switched training camps following his first professional loss to James Flint, moving away from his uncle and training Matthew. He'll be determined to avenge that defeat and prove he's learned from his mistakes.

Flint, however, will be confident he can repeat the victory. He exposed Hatton's vulnerability the body and lack of experience in their first encounter and will be looking to exploit that again.

While Hatton may make it more competitive this time, especially early on, Flint's experience should be enough to secure another win. Flint's ability to control the pace and land the more telling blows will be the difference, Hatton's lack of experience may see him lose his shape after a while and see the fight slip away from him in the later rounds.

Prediction: Flint to win on points.

Joe McGrail, a standout amateur and National ABA Champion, has seamlessly transitioned his skills to the professional ranks.

Morris, coming off a points' loss in a Southern Area title fight, faces a tough challenge against the rising star, and it's hard to see an upset happening here.

McGrail's boxing skills and amateur pedigree should see him through to victory. Expect a dominant performance from McGrail as he continues his rise through the professional ranks.

Prediction: A McGrail win.
