The event boasts an action-packed lineup, including title bouts, rising stars, and thrilling contests.
European Featherweight Title & IBF World Title Eliminator
- Jordan Gill (27-1-1) defends his European Featherweight title against Spain’s former two-time world champion Kiko Martinez (43-11-2). This clash doubles as an IBF title eliminator for Josh Warrington’s belt.
- Both fighters are coming off dramatic knockout wins, with Gill battling exhaustion to claim victory and Martinez delivering a stunning comeback after losing every round. The stakes couldn’t be higher, as this could be Martinez’s last shot at glory, while a win for Gill would propel him into the world title scene.
European Super-Bantamweight Title
- Rising English star Ellie Scotney (5-0) faces her toughest challenge yet, taking on Spain’s Mary Romero (8-2) for the European title at 122 lbs. Scotney looks to solidify her status as one of the division’s brightest prospects.
