Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn has revealed he will explore earlier main event start times in 2025.

Former world champion Terri Harper used all her experience and ring nous to take the play away from Rhiannon Dixon during most of the 10 rounds they shared in Sheffield tonight (September 28). She then took away Dixon’s WBO lightweight belt, winning a decision by scores of 97-93, 97-93 and 96-94.

Although many will have picked Peter McGrail to defeat Brad Foster tonight (September 28) in Sheffield, few will have predicted him to do so with a body shot and end it as early as the second round. Yet that is exactly how and when McGrail finished proceedings, digging a left uppercut into Foster’s body at the one minute and eight seconds mark in round two.

Not only did Galal Yafai take a risk and come through unscathed tonight (September 28) in Sheffield, he also received news that his next fight, a November 30 battle against Sunny Edwards, will in fact be a WBC interim flyweight title fight.

As far as omens go, getting splashed with a can of red paint after leaving her hotel was hardly a good one for Sandy Ryan last night (September 27) in New York. She was just two and a half hours from fighting Mikaela Mayer in defence of her WBO women’s welterweight title and now suddenly she had an altogether different problem on her hands – and down her legs, and across her stomach. Now Ryan was trying to work out who had ambushed her outside her hotel and what it all meant.

Miyo Yoshida will defend her IBF bantamweight title against Shurretta Metcalf on Oct. 23 at The Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

Sandy Ryan was reportedly hit by a can of red paint en route to Friday’s fight with Mikaela Mayer in what ESPN described as an "apparent coordinated attack."

All four co-main event fighters cleared Friday weigh-ins ahead of Saturday’s “The Heartbeat of L.A. Boxing” card at Pacific Palms Resort in City of Industry, California.

Oscar Collazo and Thammanoon Niyomtrong have finalized terms for a strawweight unification bout on Nov. 16, part of the “Latino Night” show in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
