Overview
- McCrory returns in Las Vegas to face former featherweight champion Mark Magsayo at Zuffa Boxing 5.
- It is his first bout since stopping Kenan Carbajal last March after a year of accepted fights falling through, including talks to face Josh Warrington.
- He has signed with Dana White’s new Zuffa Boxing, saying he chose the promotion to be treated properly and avoid broken promises.
- The Tyrone southpaw promises a “fire fight” and features as the co-main event under Andres Cortes vs Eridson Garcia, which airs on Sky Sports.
- The 33-year-old is 17-1 with his lone loss to Lamont Roach Jr in 2024, and he has voiced hopes for a long-awaited home fight in Ireland after this restart.
