Welterweight Division
Ben Herbert vs Paul Parkhouse
The Welterweight division heats up on August 22 in London as two fighters from very different combat backgrounds collide in their Hybrid Boxing Championship debuts.
Representing the boxing side of the matchup is southpaw Ben Herbert, a young, hungry prospect eager to make his mark. Despite having only a handful of amateur bouts, Herbert enters with confidence, determination, and a point to prove. Making his first appearance under the Hybrid Boxing banner, he’ll be looking to showcase his potential and announce himself as one to watch in the division.
Standing opposite him is Paul Parkhouse, a battle-tested MMA fighter and former Paratrooper who brings a wealth of combat experience into the ring. Known for his toughness and warrior mentality, Parkhouse will be looking to let his hands do the talking as he transitions from the cage to the squared circle. With a professional MMA background and years of high-level competition behind him, he poses a serious challenge for the young boxer.
Youth, ambition, experience, and grit collide in what promises to be an explosive Welterweight contest. Boxer versus MMA fighter. Two debuts. One statement to be made.
