Potential Opponent for Prograis' Return

British promoter Eddie Hearn has disclosed that they are currently considering a comeback fight for former WBC super lightweight champion Regis Prograis (29-2, 24 KOs) against British boxer Dalton Smith (16-0, 12 KOs).

"Regis will be back around July or August. He's still a major player in the division. I like the idea of Dalton Smith taking on Regis Prograis," stated Hearn.

In his last fight, Prograis lost the title to Devin Haney. Dalton Smith, in the spring of 2024, knocked out Jose Zepeda in the fifth round, securing the WBC Silver title.
