Matchroom unveils fall shows

Matchroom Boxing has announced four new global dates during September to October – live worldwide on the home of boxing, DAZN. A big double header gets the program started on Saturday, September 6th, with Olympic hero Pat McCormack headlining in his hometown of Sunderland when he meets Miguel Parra before we head across the Atlantic to Mexico, where Eduardo ‘Sugar’ Nunez makes the first defence of his IBF junior lightweight title against Christopher Diaz in Los Mochis. Joining McCormack on the card in Sunderland are some of Matchroom Boxing’s finest young talent, includng heavyweight Leo Atang, bantamweights Tiah-Mai Ayton and Adam Maca and lightweight Cameron Vuong – along with the professional debut of York cruiserweight Brad Casey. Also, former welterweight queen Sandy Ryan takes on the undefeated Jade Grierson and English champion Mark Dickinson puts his domestic belt on the line for a first time against fellow North-East rival Troy Williamson.
 
The following week sees the historic all-Irish World Title showdown at Belfast’s Clearer Twist National Stadium at Windsor Park when Lewis Crocker and Paddy Donovan collide for the vacant IBF welterweight championship on a night that also features the pro debut of Molly McCann, along with cruiserweight Pat Brown and a host of other exciting bouts – including Ishamel Davis vs Caoimhín Agyarko.
 
October kickstarts with a monumental heavyweight dust-up as the ‘Cinderella Man’ Dave Allen takes center stage at Sheffield’s Utilita Arena to face a 6ft 5½ in beast from the East in Arslanbek Makhmudov.
 
Just six days later, on Friday, October 17th, a powderkeg main event awaits at London’s iconic York Hall, where Matchroom Boxing returns to the legendary East End venue for the first time since December 2019. Northampton’s Kieron Conway bids to extend his hot streak of five successive victories when he takes on the undefeated middleweight George Liddard for the British and Commonwealth championships.
