  "account": "In a highly anticipated rematch for the vacant WBC world light-heavyweight title, Joshua Buatsi and Willy Hutchinson will clash in Manchester on Saturday. The British rivals first met in a thrilling contest in September 2024, with Buatsi emerging victorious by split decision after twice knocking down the Scotland-based fighter.\n\nHutchinson, 28, suffered his second career defeat that night but has since secured two wins, positioning himself as a contender for his first world title. Buatsi, 33, may again stop his opponent in the later rounds, according to predictions from boxing figures worldwide.\n\nDavid Allen, a British heavyweight, predicts Buatsi will secure the win between rounds nine and twelve. Carl Frampton, a former world champion, believes Hutchinson's improved performance since the first fight gives him the edge. Former world champion Tony Bellew favors Buatsi, citing Hutchinson's weakness to the body as a potential vulnerability.\n\nWhile both fighters have shown maturity and form since their first encounter, the outcome remains uncertain. Will Buatsi repeat his dominant victory, or will Hutchinson avenge his loss in Manchester? Boxing fans can look forward to an action-packed contest with the WBC light-heavyweight title on the line.",
