In the realm of professional boxing, a significant rematch has been officially announced, capturing the attention of fans and analysts alike. Josh Taylor and Jack Catterall have agreed to a highly anticipated rematch, set to take place on April 27 at the firstdirectarena in Leeds. This bout, a continuation of their rivalry from their February 2022 encounter, will be available on ESPN+ in the U.S. and DAZN globally, as part of a regular subscription, not a pay-per-view event. The announcement was confirmed by multiple sources, including Matchroom Boxing and Eddie Hearn, who highlighted the event's significance, marking two years since their disputed first fight, known for its 'Undisputed controversy'. Additionally, the boxing community is abuzz with speculation regarding Canelo Alvarez's next opponent. Despite Jermall Charlo and others being in the mix, recent developments suggest that Alvarez may be considering other contenders for his May 4 fight, with Terence Crawford and David Benavidez being potential candidates.

I joined @MichellePhelps from @boxing_social to discuss the prospects and heavy rumors of Canelo-Jermall Charlo on May 4 & the deal being agreed to for a Josh Taylor-Jack Catterall rematch. Check out the video here: https://t.co/jdSPRoxwdf #boxing
Canelo teases an American opponent, everyone assumes itโs Jermall, โMall posts video from Turks saying he has no idea what anyone is talking about. A classic boxing news cycle https://t.co/dhfXuc8GJW

Canelo Alvarez ruled out Jaime Munguia when he said his opponent on May 4th will be an American and now, unless heโs bluffing, Jermall Charlo has confirmed heโs not in talks either. That seemingly leaves Terence Crawford and David Benavidezโฆ or could there be another curveball?
Yeah, Canelo is real scared. The same guy that fought Austin Trout, Erislandy Lara and Dmitry Bivol, at 175 no less. Canelo was a major A-side in all three fights and no one was banging down the door for those difficult matchups. Canelo will end up fighting Benavidez, too - watch https://t.co/e1Kja5teLu

Why wonโt he fight Benavidez?๐ฉ Here is my reaction to Canelo versus Charlo https://t.co/8lVX50NO2m https://t.co/z7CyCreUiX
Per source, #TaylorCatterall2 will be a regular DAZN sub fight. Not a PPV. https://t.co/hK4g7hZnqJ
Hated For Wanting To Fight The Bestโผ๏ธ Listen..I understand those who were upset about some of the things Sampson & Benavidez Sr. have said in the past but the #1 reason why David Benavidez is hated is because he is a true threat to Canelo Alvarezโฆ In the interview yesterday,โฆ
