Reigning IBF World Flyweight Champion Sunny Edwards is a man with extensive knowledge when it comes to boxing.

Sunny Edwards certainly knows a thing or two when it comes to the sport of boxing. The reigning flyweight world champion is heavily talked about in boxing circles in the UK right now, given his vocal nature and huge presence on social media.

In a recent interview with Boxing News, ‘Showtime’ insists he is finding it hard to pick a winner, but gives the slight edge to the Nottingham man based on his last few performances:
“It’s a great fight. I like both of them, I’m actually friends with both of them. Josh [Warrington] you can never write off. Before he had even made it everyone was trying to write him off. Look at the Lee Selby and Carl Frampton fights – you can’t write him off,” Edwards commented in a recent interview with Boxing News.
“I think Leigh Wood probably goes in as the fresher and more favourable. One thing that Leigh is very good at is sitting at the end of range with his long leavers and throwing powerful shots. But at the same time, I think he gets to round seven or eight in a fight and he’s quite spent.
“Whereas Josh keeps going and he is rough and rugged. I hate to say it because I like them both but I’d lean towards Leigh Wood. Purely based on those last few performances but as I said, you can never write Josh Warrington off.”
