Background
Two-time Featherweight World Title challenger Michael Conlan returns to the SSE Arena Belfast for a fourth consecutive time to take on former European and Commonwealth Champion Jordan Gill on a huge night of Irish boxing.
Conlan was last seen in action in May when he was stopped in five rounds by Mexico’s IBF Featherweight World Champion Luis Alberto Lopez, his second successive World Title loss following his epic Fight of the Year clash with Leigh Wood in 2022.
The Belfast star has linked up with Cuban-American trainer Pedro Diaz for his eagerly anticipated comeback fight and will return at Super-Featherweight has he looks to rebuild towards further World Title shots.
Gill fights for the first time since his fourth-round stoppage loss to Spain’s two-weight World Champion Kiko Martinez at Wembley Arena back in October 2022, and the Chatteris man is hoping to throw his name back into the mix for World Title action by upsetting the local hero.
Prediction
Tim RicksonBBN Editor: "Although I believe these two are very closely matched, I think Conlan's experience at world level will be the difference here. He's been stopped twice, so if Gill can land the right shot at the right time, then Conlan could be troubled again, and Gill may be looking to take advantage of his susceptibilities. I think bringing in Pedro Diaz will help to identify and fix a few flaws whilst also bringing out some new strengths, so I predict Conlan to win on points. But he has to be sharp, switched on and disciplined for the full 12-rounds."
