Crocker and Donovan seek to kickstart stellar year

KO: Paddy Donovan knocks out Danny Ball in the WBA Continental Welterweight Title bout at 3Arena. 

Lewis Crocker and Paddy Donovan closed out 2023 with breakout wins and they will be aiming to kick-start what could be a huge year for the pair at Belfast's Ulster Hall tonight (live on DAZN from 7pm).

The rising Irish welterweight stars signalled their intentions with seismic wins just one week apart at the tail-end of the year with Donovan scoring an impressive stoppage over Danny Ball in four rounds at the 3 Arena and Crocker dominating the 'Battle of Belfast' against Tyrone McKenna seven days later at the SSE Arena.
