Regis Prograis Says It’s ‘Very Upsetting’ That Jack Catterall Fight Is Postponed
Regis Prograis is upset that his fight against Jack Catterall has been postponed.
Prograis and Catterall were supposed to box on August 24 but the fight has been postponed due to an injury to Catterall. It was disappointing news for Prograis to hear the news that Catterall suffered an injury and the fight was postponed.
“I have truly invested in myself for this training camp,” Prograis said to BoxingScene. “I was working my ass off in Las Vegas, setting up camp, paying for everything. Every day, I was busting my ass and watching Jack’s fights before I went to sleep. And now this happens. It’s very upsetting.”
Currently, the fight between Regis Prograis and Jack Catterall does not have a new date, but the hope is it will happen later this year. If it does, Prograis knows a win over Catterall does wonders for his career, as he says his goal is to become a three-time champion.
“You never get control of the future, but right now, my goal is to become a three-time champion,” Prograis said. “That’s something I really want, but I really feel like that’s going to come way earlier than last time. To become a two-time champion, it took me three years. I don’t feel it’s going to take another three years to become a three-time champion. So I do feel like that’s going to come. Then, after that, unified champion, probably have a big fight in New Orleans, in the Superdome. That’s how I see it now. It might surpass that, but that’s kind of how I see it right now.”
Regis Prograis is 29-2 and is coming off a decision loss to Devin Haney back in December which snapped his five-fight winning streak. Prograis is the former WBC light welterweight champion. He has notable wins over Jose Zepeda, Ivan Redkach, and Joel Diaz Jr. among others.
