MTK Global will head back to the Vale Sports Arena in Cardiff next month - with some of the very best talent from Wales and beyond on display.
The November 26th event will be a co-promotion between MTK Global and Mo Prior's Priority Promotions, and will be broadcast around the world live on IFL TV.
The card features a clash between Jacob Robinson (8-0, 2 KOs) and Angelo Dragone (5-2), which pending approval from the British Boxing Board of Control, is set to be for the Welsh Area featherweight title.
David Benavidez vs Andy Ruiz Jr?! Jose Benavidez Sr. REVEALS Huge Fight Plans
David Benavidez has no shortage of HUGE fights on his radar. In an exclusive interview with BoxingScene, Jose Benavidez Sr. makes it clear that David still wants the biggest names at 175lbs including Dmitry Bivol and Artur Beterbiev. Benavidez has previously said those are two fights he wants to make as he pursues more titles and major challenges. But there’s another name that could make things very interesting: Andy Ruiz Jr. Jose discusses the possibility of an all-Mexican showdown between Benavidez and the former heavyweight champion, along with David’s plans across multiple divisions. And with a potential Jai Opetaia showdown also building after the pair came face-to-face following Opetaia’s latest victory, Benavidez has some massive options ahead.
Former British and Commonwealth champion Akeem Ennis Brown (14-1, 1 KO) returns, while two-time Commonwealth Games medallist Sean McGoldrick (10-1, 3 KOs) has another date penciled in, following his return to the ring at York Hall this Friday.
Heavyweight Miles Gordon (2-0) makes his long-awaited comeback after nearly five years out, plus Ethan George will fight in Wales for the first time as a professional.
Rashid Omar, Kyran Jones (1-0) Mano Lee (4-2, 1 KO) and Ben Crocker will all be on the bill too, in what looks set to be another action-packed evening in Cardiff.
MTK Global Promoter Lee Eaton said: "We're pleased to be working with Mo Prior to bring this event to Wales next month. Cardiff is a brilliant fight city and we've had some great shows there in the past, so we're excited to return for the first time since the pandemic.
"Jacob Robinson vs. Angelo Dragone is set to be a cracker, plus with big names like Akeem Ennis Brown and Sean McGoldrick on the card, along with some of the best prospects that Wales has to offer, it should be a tremendous night of boxing from start to finish."
More news on the event in Cardiff will be announced in the coming days and weeks.
