Beyond the main event, there’s a stacked undercard. Watford’s Reece Bellotti (19-5, 14 KOs) will defend his British and Commonwealth super-featherweight belts against Manchester’s Michael Gomez Jr. (21-1, 6 KOs) in a grudge match. After both men traded verbal jabs in the lead-up, they’ll settle the score when the first bell rings. Meanwhile, Pat McCormack (6-0, 4 KOs) faces a step up in class when he puts his WBA Intercontinental welterweight title on the line against Liverpool veteran Robbie Davies Jr (24-5, 15 KOs).
A Manchester vs. Liverpool showdown adds further spice to the undercard as Zelfa Barrett (31-2, 17 KOs) and Jazza Dickens (34-5, 14 KOs) collide for the WBA International super-featherweight title. Barrett, a former IBF world title challenger, will look to make a statement in front of his home crowd, while Dickens seeks to capitalize on his experience to bring another big win back to Merseyside.
Local light-heavyweight Conner Tudsbury makes his professional debut against Belgium’s Sadaam Moamed Da Silva Caetano, hoping to launch his career with a bang in front of a supportive Manchester audience. Oldham’s Aqib Fiaz (12-1, 1 KO) returns at lightweight against Malta’s Lydon Chircop (7-2, 4 KOs) in a six-round contest, and Manchester super-welterweight puncher William Crolla (6-0, 5 KOs) tests himself against Spain’s Ayoub Zakari (5-7-1, 0 KOs). Opening the show, featherweight Alfie Middlemiss (1-0, 0 KOs) squares off with Caine Singh (1-5-2, 0 KOs) in a four-rounder, kicking off the Before The Bell card.
