Activity tempted Ben Whittaker from ‘rookie’ Boxxer to Matchroom

“I just wanted activity, but of course it went a bit quiet, so I was gutted,” he said. “I think we all knew I was going to come down this road – I was lucky enough to become a free agent, spoke to everyone, and [Matchroom] gave me the best plan, the best route. They’ve been there and done it before – they’ve done it before with fighters, so I thought if they can do it with them, with a bit of guidance I’ll be alright.
