Jack Massey (born 12 April 1993) is an English professional boxer who is the European and Commonwealth cruiserweight champion. He also previously held the IBO cruiserweight title.
Professional career
[edit]His 16–0 undefeated streak earned Massey the chance to fight Richard Riakporhe for the vacant British cruiserweight title on 19 December 2021, at the York Hall in London, England.[4] He lost the fight by unanimous decision, with scores of 115–113, 115–113 and 117–111.[5]
After successfully bouncing back from his first professional loss, with a points win over Mohammad Farid, Massey faced Engin Karakaplan for the vacant IBF European cruiserweight title on 2 July 2021, at the Sheffield Arena Carpark in Sheffield, England. He captured the IBF regional silverware with a fourth-round knockout, flooring Karakaplan with a right-left combination.[6]
Massey was booked to face Bilal Laggoune for the vacant IBO cruiserweight title on 26 November 2021, at the Whites Hotel in Bolton, England, in the main event of a Fightzone broadcast card.[7] Massey made quick work of his opponent, as he won the fight by a third-round technical knockout. He first knocked Laggoune down with a left hook early in the third round, before forcing the referee to wave the bout off with a flurry of punches as soon as the fight resumed.[8]
Massey defeated the Commonwealth cruiserweight champion Isaac Chamberlain via unanimous decision at Selhurst Park in London on 15 June 2024 in a fight that was also for the vacant European belt.[9][10]
