Leigh Wood v Josh Warrington: Winner could face super-featherweight champion Joe Cordina
Nottingham's Wood, 35, defends his WBA world featherweight title against 'Leeds Warrior' Warrington, 32, at Sheffield's Utility Arena on 8 October."I spoke to Joe yesterday and he's up for it," said Matchroom Boxing's Hearn.
He is on a career-high after a sensational victory against hard-hitting Mauricio Lara in May, having lost his belt to the Mexican in February. Warrington beat veteran Kiko Martinez in March 2022 before losing the IBF title to Mexico's Luis Alberto Lopez later in December. The fighters came face to face in Tuesday's news conference at the Aspire events venue in Leeds, a day after their contest was announced.
