Troy Williamson To Return on February 18 in Belfast

By Elliot Foster

Troy Williamson has had his next fight date confirmed.

The Darlington man, who recently inked promotional terms with Frank Warren, is undefeated in two since turning over last October, with one of those wins coming by way of knockout.

And the 25-year-old, who was part of the British Lionhearts side which competed in the World Series of Boxing before making his pro move under the management of MTK Marbella, will have the opportunity to add to that unblemished ledger sooner rather than later.

He has been confirmed as a late addition to the Waterfront Hall card on February 18, exclusively live on BoxNation.

No opponent has yet been revealed for Williamson, who campaigns at middleweight, but he will be hoping to thrive off the energy of the adoring Belfast crown and get another win under his belt before pushing on under the guidance of Hall of Fame promoter Warren.

Conlan faces Yader Cardoza for the vacant WBC International silver super-flyweight title and three-time Olympian Paddy Barnes will fight in his second professional outing.

Elsewhere on the card, Declan Geraghty meets James Tennyson in a clash for the vacant Irish super-featherweight title and Tyrone McKenna defends his Celtic welterweight title against Jake Hanney.

There is action for Phil Sutcliffe Jr., who with a win will go on to face Josh Leather for the vacant IBF Inter-Continental super-lightweight title on May 13 at the First Direct Arena in Leeds, while featherweight Marco McCullough, heavyweight Con Sheehan, flyweight Kevin Satchell and light-heavyweight Steven Ward complete the card on which Lewis Crocker finally makes his highly-anticipated debut.
