Callum Johnson is targeting titles after linking up with Frank Warren again.

The Boston boxer - who has won British and Commonwealth light heavyweight titles as a pro - has signed a 'long term deal' with promoter Warren's Queensberry Promotions after parting company with Eddie Hearne's Matchroom set-up.

The 35-year-old has suffered a frustrating period of inactivity, hampered by injury. His last bout was 2019's victory over Sean Monaghan in New York.

However, Johnson hopes that will all change as he reunited with Warren, whom he first worked with in 2010, turning pro after winning gold at the Commonwealth Games.

Johnson's only defeat as a professional came in his world title fight with Artur Beterbiev.

"Very happy and excited to announce I've signed a long-term deal Frank Warren and Queensberry Promotions," Johnson said.

"Looking forward to getting the show back on the road and chasing goals."
