Watch Aaron McKenna and Stevie McKenna LIVE Running Order – Times
Aaron McKenna [13(7)-0] fights for his first professional title tonight.
‘The Silencer’ fights for the prestigious career progressing WBC Youth world title in London.
To buckle the strap around his waist the exciting prospect will have to defeat Mexican opposition for the seventh time in his young career, as he fights Carlos Gallego [8(6)-1], who is trained by Canelo’s brother, on the Crystal Palace hosted, Hennessy show.
The Monaghan middleweights brother and Hennessy Sports stablemate, Stevie McKenna [10(9)-0] also appears. Unfortunately for ‘The Hitman’ he won’t, as originally planned, fight for a strap.
The older of the two fighting brothers was due to fight Aziz Quartey [19(18)-5(1)] for the IBF Youth world title.
However, the Ghanaian failed to make weight by so much that the BBBofC wouldn’t sanction the fight.
