Barnsley boxer Callum Simpson made light work of challenger Steed Woodall in his most recent outing, and has said he’d like to fight Liam Cameron next.
Callum Simpson now holds a record of 16-0, following his career-best wins against Zak Chelli and, more recently, Steed Woodall (who previously stopped Lerrone Richards). Simpson, from Barnsley, has headlined two Boxxer cards now, and is looking for his next big domestic clash.
One potential opponent is Mark Jeffers. The 19-0 Brit also holds a win over Zak Chelli, in a bout in which Jeffers also won the British Super Middleweight title.
Callum Simpson vs Liam Cameron
Simpson has been vocal about wanting to fight Liam Cameron, in what would be a Barnsley vs Sheffield clash. Cameron is coming off a controversial technical decision draw to Boxxer’s top prospect, Ben Whittaker, after both fighters fell out of the ring and Whittaker sustained an injury.
Fans believe Whittaker did not look his usual over-confident self when faced with real adversity, and some believe he took the ring incident as an opportunity to quit. He has been called ‘Ben Quittaker’ by many on social media.
Cameron is now 23-6-1, but ran a close fight with Lyndon Arthur, and many believe was getting the better of Whittaker. Though many want to see the Whittaker rematch, it seems negotiations between the promoters have hit a snag, and it is possible the rematch is shelved for a later date.
In which case Cameron vs Simpson may be the fight to make, though Cameron last fought at light heavyweight and Simpson at super middleweight, it is possible we see the two collide in a South Yorkshire Derby.
