MTK Global will head back to the University of Bolton Stadium with a stacked card next month - with some of the best British talent on display.

The event takes place on Friday 18 February and is brought together by Johnney Roye for MTK Global, and tickets for the show are priced at £40 for unreserved seats, £60 for reserved seats, and £80 for VIP seats.

Liam Taylor (24-2-1, 11 KOs) returns on the bill, with the former British, Commonwealth and European title challenger looking to kick off the year in style, while his gym-mate Jack Rafferty (17-0, 9 KOs) is back too, following four wins in three months to close 2021.

Mike McGoldrick (7-1, 2 KOs) makes his long-awaited comeback after getting to the final of the Boxxer tournament in November 2020, plus rising star Lerone Harrison (2-0) aims to extend his unbeaten record.

Muhammad Ali Zahid (6-0) seeks to continue making history, after becoming the first diabetic boxer to receive a professional boxing license in the UK, and teenage sensation Joe McGrail (1-0, 1 KO) has his second professional bout, fresh off his dominant stoppage win during his debut in December.

Undefeared pair Ryan Stevenson (8-0, 2 KOs) and Josh Padley (5-0) both return, plus a number of exciting stars will make their professional debuts, as Luke Caffrey, Adam Carberry, Taylor Finch and Barney Stokes all enter the paid ranks.

MTK Global's Johnney Roye said: "It's fantastic to return to the University of Bolton Stadium with a great bill next month. Some of these boxers haven't been able to compete much during the pandemic, so we're delighted they now get to return on a big stage."
