"His passion and relentless drive for perfection perfectly align with our Vampire brand values, making this a truly exciting partnership.

Catterall, who is 30-1 with 13 KOs in his career, has worked his way up the ranks and made headlines in 2022 following his bout with Josh Taylor which ended in a controversial loss - though he did win the rematch last year.

Vampire Vape said it is 'passionate about supporting local talent on the world stage' and Catterall's journey 'reflects that same determination to succeed'.
