Lee Cutler has left the door open to a rematch with Stephen McKenna but says the decision rests with his rival's camp. The super-welterweight told Sky Sports he would take the fight if McKenna wants it.

“If they [McKenna and his team] want the rematch after this, we can do that - I'm not bothered”

What Lee Cutler said

Cutler and McKenna are both scheduled to return on the same Zuffa Boxing card in Bournemouth. The two super-welterweights have a shared history that has prompted talk of a potential rematch, though neither fighter has committed to the bout. Both men are looking to build momentum in the division.

What it moves

Cutler's relaxed stance puts the pressure back on McKenna's team to make a move. If McKenna accepts, the rematch could be made for later in the year. A win for either fighter would strengthen their position at super-welterweight and potentially open doors to bigger names.
