Ben Whittaker faces the most consequential test of his professional career when he takes on Conor Wallace in Birmingham in a final eliminator for the IBF light heavyweight world championship. Whittaker returns to his home city with an unbeaten 12-0-1 record and the WBC Silver title, having built momentum through three consecutive stoppage victories since joining Matchroom. Wallace arrives at 17-1 with 12 knockouts and the No. 2 position in the IBF rankings, giving the Australian the opportunity to move within one victory of a world-title shot. With the winner set to become the leading IBF contender to the victor of Dmitry Bivol vs Callum Smith, the matchup carries genuine implications at the top of the 175-pound division and represents a significant step up in competition for Whittaker.
