How to watch Leigh Wood vs. Josh Warrington fight on US TV

For years, Leigh Wood and Josh Warrington have eagerly anticipated a showdown. This Saturday, their long-awaited meeting will take place in Sheffield, England, at 2 p.m. ET, with Wood putting his WBA featherweight championship on the line.

Warrington (31-2-1, 8 KO) has encountered a challenging run since 2021, registering just one victory against Kiko Martínez in a bout that saw him reclaim the IBF featherweight title for the second time in his career. Some may argue that his recent performance doesn’t warrant a shot at a world title, considering his overall record of 1-2-1 during this period.

The undercard features an interesting clash in the women’s ranks when WBA super welterweight champion Terri Harper takes on veteran Cecilia Braekus with the vacant WBO title also at stake. Harper, 26, has quickly climbed the ranks to become one of the top women’s fighters in the world. Her lone defeat came at the hands of another elite fighter in Alycia Baumgardner in November 2021 in a defense of her unified junior welterweight titles. Now, having claimed a title two weight classes up, Harper welcomes another elite in Braekus, who earned undisputed status at welterweight before dropping a pair of bouts to Jessica McCaskill in 2020 and 2021.
