Rowley Regis's Tyler Denny will be contesting for the EBU European Middleweight title against current champ Matteo Singnani live on Sky Sports promoted by Boxxer promotions. The show which is called ‘Wolves at the Door!’ will see the thirty-two-year-old southpaw Denny fight in the Black Country for the first time since July 2019. The fight will be one of the main contests on the Boxxer Promotions show to be held at the Wolverhampton Civic Hall on November 18th.
Denny who is the current English Middleweight champ after beating River Wilson-Bent in June 2022 for the vacant title. Denny then went on and defended his title twice beating two unbeaten fighters in Bradley Rea and Brad Pauls. In Denny's last contest at the Resorts World Birmingham in May of this year saw him beat Macauley McCowan in a split decision victory winning the EBU External Middleweight title. Denny has a very impressive record of seventeen wins three draws out of twenty-two contests.
Italian-born Signani (44) won the EBU European Middleweight title in October of 2019 beating Gevorg Khatchikian on a split decision. Signani then went on and defended it three times but then lost it and won it back against Anderson Prestot. Sidnani has had forty-one fights winning thirty-two and drawing three.
Dexter’s Thoughts
Absolutely chuffed for Tyler Denny to get this title shot so close to his hometown of Rowley Regis His last fight was just down the road in Birmingham but this is even closer in Wolverhampton’s at the Civic Hall. Denny has got better and better with every fight he has had and I think he should have got this title shot after he won the English title against River Wilson-Bent. Denny has beaten four unbeaten fighters in his last four fights but I have to say that Signani may be the wrong side of forty but has a lot of experience at this level and won this European title back in October of 2019. He did lose it but won it back in his last fight so this is not going to be an easy contest for Denny. When you look at Denny’s record especially his last five or six fights, he has been put in with some of the best Britain has to offer and has come out on top. All I can see in this fight is Denny getting his hand raised with the form he is in and with the Black Country behind I think we will see a new EBU European Middleweight champion. I am really looking forward to seeing Tyler do the business on November 18.
