"It's My Turn." Franklin Promises a Comeback

Heavyweight boxer Jermaine Franklin (22-2, 14 KOs) has announced his return to the ring after a break.

"It's my turn. I've never been down or out. Ranked 9th by the WBO. I'm ready," Franklin posted on his Twitter.

Franklin lost 2 of his last 3 fights, decisions against Dillian Whyte and Anthony Joshua, and won against Isaac Gutierrez in the summer of 2023. Since then, Franklin has not fought.

It's worth noting that Franklin lost to Whyte by split decision, and the bout against Joshua was so challenging that it led to a dispute with the opponent's team afterward.
