In July 2021, Cullen won the IBF Super Middleweight Crown by beating Avni Yildirim in a 10-round decision. In 2019, he grabbed the British middleweight title by defeating Jack Sellars. Cullen lost four times: Roy Sheahan stopped him in the first round in 2018, Felix Cash beat him in eight rounds in 2019, Kevin Lele Sadjo halted him in six rounds in 2021, and Diego Pacheco stopped him in the fourth round in March. His last knockout win was in March 2020 against Thomas Reynoso in the second round.

Zak Chelli became the British Southern Area Super Middleweight Champion in 2019 by beating Jimmy Smith in a decision. In June 2022, he won the British Super Middleweight Title with a 10-round unanimous decision over Germaine Brown. As an amateur, he reached the quarterfinals of the 2016 English ABAE National Championships and the final of the 2015 England Youth National Championships. However, he lost his title to Mark Jeffers in July with a 10-round unanimous decision. His first defeat happened in 2019 when he dropped Kody Davies in the second round but lost in a 10-round unanimous decision.

Jack Cullen and Zak Chelli are set for an intense rematch. They are evenly matched, and it's been almost 4 years since their last fight. Although they're the same people, they've become different fighters. Cullen is bigger, but he's been stopped in all four of his losses. He won his titles by surprising Mark Heffron recently, so he's feeling confident. Chelli held him to a draw in their first match. This time, if Chelli can land some good hits, the fight might not go the full distance. Chelli doesn't use a jab much and struggles with avoiding punches when getting closer. Cullen, by watching their first fight, can catch Chelli as he comes in, making a big impact. It's going to be an exciting battle.
