Stylish Conlan impresses in Garden show

Belfast featherweight Michael Conlan defeated Argentina’s Luis Fernando Molina over six rounds in the chief support bout to Vasyl Lomachenko’s world super-featherweight title win over Guillermo Rigondeaux at New York’s Madison Square Garden.

Returning to the scene of his paid debut last March, the 26-year-old recorded a 60-54 shutout on all three judges’ cards to boost his pro record to 5-0 following a dominant points victory.

Delivering an impressive display of boxing skills, former world amateur champion Conlan switched from orthodox to southpaw with ease.
