Stephen McKenna dismisses Lee Cutler rematch: 'I'm after bigger things'

Stephen McKenna has ruled out a rematch with Lee Cutler, saying he has moved past the rivalry. The Irish fighter told Sky Sports he is targeting more significant opponents and is uninterested in facing Cutler again.

“Forget about him [Cutler]. I'm after bigger things than him. Who wants to watch him? He's boring. I built up his whole career. Nobody knew him. Let him go his own way. He won't last long.”

What Stephen McKenna said

McKenna and Cutler have been linked to a potential rematch after both won on the same card in Bournemouth. Cutler has publicly called for the fight to take place in Ireland, but McKenna appears to have shut down the possibility with his latest comments.

What it moves

The statement closes the door on what would have been a domestic clash between the two. Without McKenna's agreement, Cutler will need to find another route to build his profile. McKenna's focus on bigger opportunities suggests he is looking to move up the rankings rather than revisit old rivalries.
