Overview
- Molly McCann, who fought Saturday in Liverpool on a DAZN co-main, beat Ashleigh Johnson by unanimous decision with 78-74 on all three cards.
- The bout at M&S Bank Arena was her first in her home city since 2018 at the same venue where she was submitted in her UFC debut.
- Ringside reports called it her best boxing display yet as she controlled most of eight rounds, tired late, then finished strong.
- The night doubled as a local showcase with singer Jamie Webster leading her ringwalk, Everton-themed gear on display, and Paddy Pimblett joining her in-ring celebration.
- Her co-main slot followed the cancellation of Callum Smith vs David Morrell, giving her crossover run with Matchroom and DAZN added spotlight.
