Padraig McCrory set to headline Probox TV’s European debut in Belfast Showdown
Padraig McCory looks to bounce back to winning ways as he welcomes Columbia’s Leonardo Carrillo to the SSE Arena on November 1.
This event will be the American company Probox TV’s European debut, as they team up with Conlan Boxing to stage shows in the UK and Ireland.
The 36-year-old from Belfast tasted defeat for the first time when he took on the world-class Edgar Berlanga in August 2023. ‘The Hammer’ will be looking to get back to winning ways as he headlines the event billed as the ‘Friday Fright Night’ in a 10-round super middleweight bout.

Also on the card is Liverpool’s Robbie Davies Jr. who clashes with the former two-weight world champion Javier Fortuna in a high-level bout.
Irish Olympian Kurt Walker looks to extend his 11-fight win streak as he has a step up in opposition, taking on American Rudy Garcia.

The card also features the popular cruiserweight Tommy McCarthy along with a selection of high-level prospects in Matthew Boreland, Colm Murphy, Brandon McCarthy, Teo Alan, Gareth Downing, Cathal McLaughlin and Jack O’Neill, the debut of Probox TV promises a thrilling night of boxing action.
