Prograis chose McKenna himself for this fight after the two spoke on social media.

While boxing fans want to see, Prograis take on a better opponent. He chose to face McKenna, who had just lost to Ohara Davies. Tonight’s win for Prograis would mean more if he faced a better opponent than McKenna. But this is what he wants. That’s the boxing fan’s critique of Prograis. Since his defeat to Josh Taylor in 2019. He has played it safe against Ivan Redkach, Juan Heraldez, and now McKenna. That loss to Prograis might have shaken his confidence to the core. Causing him to withdraw from battles against top-tier opponents from then on.

With that win, Program is now the 140-lb WBC mandatory challenger to champion Josh Taylor. However, Taylor is likely to vacate all four of his titles and move up to 147 after his recent win over Jack Catterall last month. If Taylor vacates, Prograis will face the WBC 2nd place for the vacant WBC light welterweight title. Former IBF super bantamweight champion TJ Doheny recorded his two-game losing streak with a win in the second round. Top boxer Cesar Juarez.
