Jono Carroll remains in search of an elusive major title and plans to approach every fight as if such a prize is at stake. It helps that the 28-year old Dubliner is coming off of a career-best win against a former champ heading into his next ring adventure. Carroll will face Yorkshire's Maxi Hughes (20-5-2, 4KOs) in a 10-round junior lightweight bout atop MTK Global's first MTK Fight Night card since the start of the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, which takes place August 12 at Production Park Studios in Wakefield, England.
The event-and the series as a whole for the time being-will air live on ESPN+ and IFL TV from behind closed doors, in compliance with COVID-19 protocol.
"It's going to just be me and him in the ring, so I don't see it being that different with no fans," insists Carroll (18-1-1, 4KOs), who has won two straight since a 12-round loss to then IBF junior lightweight titlist Tevin Farmer last March in the United States.
