Callum Walsh Rising Up the Rankings

The Fastest Rising Star in Boxing, ‘King’ Callum Walsh, (9-0, 7 KOs), coming off his career best victory over top New York City based prospect Ismael Villarreal on November 9, has charged up the world rankings of two sanctioning bodies.

The hard-hitting Cork, Ireland native has been rated at #15 by both the World Boxing Council (WBC) and the International Boxing Federation (IBF). The southpaw holds the WBC US Silver Super Welterweight Title which he has defended twice.

“It’s a great honor to be recognized by the WBC and the IBF along with the other honors I’ve received this year,” said the 22-year-old. “But the most important thing is to keep on improving, as the competition gets better in the future I’ll continue to improve as well.”

The ten-round unanimous decision over Villarreal took place in front of a raucous crowd at The Theater at Madison Square Garden and was broadcast globally by UFC FIGHT PASS.
