Josh Warrington is a professional boxer who made his debut at the age of 18 against Delroy Spencer on October 31, 2009, winning through a 4-round PTS. He went on to win 29 more consecutive fights which included seven victories via stoppage. During his career, Warrington has had a total of 34 fights, winning 31, losing two, drawing one, and having no no-contests. Among his seven KO wins, two of them came in fights that were title matches. Additionally, he has successfully defended his title three times and has had two victories in title Fight KO Wins.
Warrington had his first world title fight when he was 27 years old after 26 fights as a professional against Lee Selby for the featherweight IBF title on May 19, 2018. By defeating Selby via a 12-round split-decision, he became the featherweight champion of the world. For all the details on his world title wins and defenses, consult "Josh Warrington World Titles." He has won two world titles at featherweight. Some of Warrington's notable victories and best fights include wins over Sofiane Takoucht, Carl Frampton, Kiko Martínez, Lee Selby, Kid Galahad, Dennis Ceylan, and Patrick Hyland.
Unfortunately, despite his impressive record as a boxer, Warrington has also experienced defeats. In his professional career, he has had a total of two losses, one in a title meeting, and the other in a non-title bout. He lost once via decision and once via stoppage. One of his most unfortunate realities was his recent featherweight title defense against Mexican boxer Luis Alberto Lopez on December 10, 2022. In a 12-round majority decision, Warrington lost the title, marking his first defeat in a long time, he went on a one-fight losing streak. The defeat reasonably stung, but it also shows the kind of fighter Warrington is because he is not afraid to fight tough opposition.
Warrington's professional boxing record presently stands at 31-2-1, including eight knockout victories and one loss via KO, as well as two title wins. So, I think if he handles himself calmly and methodically, he could have a shot at winning more titles in the future. Warrington remains a determined boxer and his enthusiasm for the sport could lead to further success. The boxing world eagerly anticipates his upcoming fights and would like nothing more than to witness an exciting and triumphant victory.
