He added, &#8220;He\u2019s been wearing a hat every week with the word &#8216;War&#8217; on it. If he wants a war, we\u2019ll have a war. He can have whatever he wants.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"3\">However, Simpson emphasized he would win regardless of the nature of the fight. He said: &#8220;But I&#8217;m going to win regardless. I&#8217;m not coming here just to defend; I&#8217;m here to dominate. I want to show that I am levels above this.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"4\">Simpson, who remains undefeated in his 18-fight career, secured a crushing victory by stopping Jan Ceko in his last outing, dropping him twice before reclaiming his position to win in his home territory of Barnsley.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"5\">On the other hand, the 34-year-old Williamson, who holds a record of 21 wins and 4 losses, will challenge for Simpson&#8217;s super-middleweight titles at the First Direct Arena in Leeds. The Darlington fighter stared down Simpson during their face-off, saying: &#8220;Just a normal man in my way that I need to take care of.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"6\">A large number of Simpson&#8217;s fans are expected to travel from Barnsley to Leeds to support him, but Williamson denied that this would affect his performance. The British fighter said: &#8220;The fans can&#8217;t win the fight.&#8221; He added: &#8220;They can make as much noise as they want. But the only ones that matter are me, him, and the referee in the ring. That&#8217;s all that matters.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"7\">the fight night program will be broadcast live on British television and via multimedia internet streaming.<\/p>\n<p>United News Network \u2013 UNN Arabic<\/p>\n<p>An independent media platform providing reliable news and objective analysis, seeking to promote peace and cultural dialogue around the world, to convey the truth and build bridges of understanding between peoples.<\/p>\n<p>For more news, you can visit our main page:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"uyV3ReeAub\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/un-news.org\/en\/\">Home<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"&#8220;Home&#8221; &#8212; \u0634\u0628\u0643\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0623\u062e\u0628\u0627\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u062a\u062d\u062f\u0629 \u2013 UNN \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0631\u0628\u064a\u0629\" src=\"https:\/\/un-news.org\/en\/embed\/#?secret=t1Xq069X88#?secret=uyV3ReeAub\" data-secret=\"uyV3ReeAub\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Simpson&#8217;s promoter describes Williamson clash as an imminent battle in Leeds London &#8211; United News Network (UNN): Callum Simpson&#8217;s team described super-middleweight contender Troy Williamson as being able to &#8220;have a war if he wants one,&#8221; as the two weighed in ahead of their British, European, and Commonwealth super-middleweight title fight taking place this Saturday [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":16396,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-16397","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/un-news.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16397","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/un-news.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/un-news.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/un-news.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/un-news.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16397"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/un-news.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16397\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/un-news.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16396"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/un-news.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16397"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/un-news.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16397"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/un-news.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16397"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
