British champion Heaney (18-0-1, 6 KOs) will play it again against the Newquay Bomb Pauls (18-1-1, 10), with the pair having fought to a captivating draw at the same arena in March with over 2,000 fans from Stoke in attendance.

Heaney vs Pauls 2 Undercard
A brutal encounter will be anticipated at bantamweight when British and Commonwealth champion Ashley Lane (18-10-2, 3) from Bristol defends his titles against the Liverpool knockout specialist Andrew Cain (11-1, 10), who returned to the ring earlier this month after recovering from a severe fracture to his hand.
Lane, 33, comes into the fight following two brutal stoppage victories over English champion Jordan Purkiss and former WBC International champion Chris Bourke.
WBO European and English welterweight champion Owen Cooper (10-0, 4) from Worcester, fresh off a breakthrough stoppage of previously undefeated young rival Eithan James in March, takes on the challenge of the hugely experienced former British and Commonwealth champion Ekow Essuman (19-1, 7), who made four successful defences of the Lonsdale belt he won by defeating Chris Jenkins in July 2021.
The vacant WBC Interim world super lightweight championship will be on the line for the Queensberry debut of former undisputed world champion Chantelle Cameron (18-1, 8), who makes her return to the ring after being edged out in a majority decision in her rematch against Katie Taylor in Dublin in November of last year, having defeated the Irish legend in May.
