What Lee Cutler said

Cutler and McKenna met previously, with both men now set to fight on the same Zuffa Boxing card in Bournemouth. The welterweight/" class="internal-link text-bone underline decoration-ash/30 hover:decoration-gold underline-offset-2">super-welterweight division remains wide open, and a rematch between the pair could settle unfinished business depending on how their respective comeback fights unfold.

What it moves

Cutler's relaxed stance puts the ball in McKenna's court. If McKenna wins impressively and calls for the rematch, Cutler has already signalled his willingness. The Bournemouth show could set the stage for a second meeting later in the year.
