Conlan Boxing Confirm NINE Fight Ulster Hall Card

Conlan Boxing will bring big-time boxing back to Belfast when they host an action-packed event at Ulster Hall on Friday 5 November.

The card will be headlined by a WBO European welterweight title fight between Lewis Crocker and Artem Haroyan and will be broadcast live in the US on ESPN+ in association with Top Rank, with a UK and Ireland broadcaster announced in the near future.

Crocker (13-0, 7 KOs) was last in the ring in March when he retained his title with an exciting unanimous decision win over Deniz Ilbay, and will look to make another statement when he takes on Haroyan (17-2-1, 9 KOs).

In the co-main event, Padraig McCrory (12-0, 6 KOs) defends his newly won WBC International Silver super-middleweight title, going up against Swiss champion Celso Neves (8-1-1, 2 KOs).

Hard-hitting McCrory stopped Sergei Gorokhov to win the title in August, and now turns his attention to Neves, who in his last outing dropped previously undefeated Marzio Franscella three times on his way to an eight round TKO win.

Rounding up the main card, Sean McComb (12-1, 5 KOs) meets Ronnie Clark (21-5-2, 10 KOs) in an intriguing battle, undefeated James McGivern (3-0) faces Jonny Phillips, and rising star Cain Lewis (1-0) collides with Stefan Nicolae.

Delighted to bring our second show to Belfast! A great night of fights ahead, be sure to get your tickets this Friday! 💥🥊 https://t.co/lQXx5TpqmN
