Face to Face Before the Fight"},"content":{"rendered":"The rivalry between Leigh Wood and Josh Warrington intensifies ahead of their highly anticipated rematch, scheduled for February 21st in Nottingham. The atmosphere is heating up as the face-off approaches.\n\nWood, former featherweight world champion, and Warrington, also a former champion in the same division, are preparing for a second encounter that has generated great expectation. The tension between both boxers has been increasing since their first fight.\n\nWood achieved a shocking victory over Warrington in October 2023, with a knockout in the seventh round. Despite Warrington dominating the fight in terms of punches landed, Wood managed to change the course of the fight dramatically.\n\nThe atmosphere heated up in their first meeting after the announcement of the rematch.\n\n

I don’t like him now. From the first fight, he never showed any respect. Did he fear Leigh before the first fight? Probably not. I thought the fight was going as I expected until the seventh round. I have to make sure the same mistake doesn’t happen again. Until that moment, I was having an easy night.<\/p>Warrington<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n

He won rounds, but at what cost? It cost him the fight. If he wants to do that again, he can do it again. I’m not even thinking about after this fight, I’m thinking about winning this fight. If I lose this fight, it takes away credibility from the first fight. I don’t know if I’ll fight again after this fight, I haven’t even thought about it. But for me, I need to win this fight.<\/p>Wood<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nThe exchange, which began cordially, soon became tense, making the animosity between the two pugilists clear. The face-to-face encounter after the interview was intense, with strong words.\n\n

You need to be perfect for 36 minutes, I need to be perfect for one or two seconds. I’m going to hit you so fucking hard, I can’t wait.<\/p>Wood<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n

This fight should have happened a year ago. Warrington was outboxing Leigh and Leigh changed it, stopped him. This is the last chance. If you lose this fight, you’re finished. Both should recognize it. The winner will move on and have a big fight, the loser… They won’t want to and rebuild.
