Co-promotional deal with Frank Warren and Top Rank puts Anderson back in the heavyweight title picture
Jared Anderson has signed with Queensberry Promotions in a co-promotional deal with Top Rank as he looks to rebuild after his loss to Martin Bakole. His fights will air on DAZN, with a UK appearance already planned.
The focus is activity and results to move him back into position with the sanctioning bodies.
Anderson, 26, built his early record with quick finishes, often ending fights inside a round. He carried that into title wins at regional level, stopping Oleksandr Teslenko for the NABF belt and later taking the WBO International title against Jerry Forrest. He added a decision win over Charles Martin and followed it with a stoppage of Andrii Rudenko before stepping up against Bakole.
That fight exposed issues at the top level. Anderson was forced back, took heavy shots, and could not hold his ground once the pressure built. He returned with a decision win over Marios Kollias, but the division does not wait.
Frank Warren said, “Queensberry is the Home of the Heavyweights and the perfect platform for him to stay active and feature in the biggest fights.”
Anderson needs rounds, needs to tighten his guard, and needs to work behind a consistent jab to keep distance before letting his combinations go. When he sets his feet and throws in sequence, the power is there. When he gets pushed back, his shape breaks and he starts reaching.
His next fight is scheduled for the UK. If he wins and stays active, he moves back into the title mix. If not, the division moves on.
