MTK promoted another busy night of action at the Bolton Whites Hotel, with a pair of continental title fights topping the bill.
The nominal head of the bill came at Welterweight, where Lewis Crocker defended his WBO European strap with a dominant, yet entertaining points win against the teak tough Deniz Ilbay.
Crocker was making the first defence of the belt that he won last time out, with a seventh round stoppage of Louis Greene, while Ilbay was coming off a first round success back in December 2019.

Friday night at the Bolton Whites Hotel sees another MTK promoted card packed full of talent. IFL’s YouTube channel in the UK, and ESPN+ in the USA, are the places to see another busy bill.
There are two bill toppers, with a pair of WBO European titles on the line, both over ten rounds.
At Welterweight, Belfast’s Lewis Crocker (12-0, KO7) defends his 10st 7 belt for the first time, as he takes on continental opposition in Germany’s Deniz Ilbay (22-2, KO10).
24-year-old, Crocker is a real talent and will be looking for a statement win against Ilbay to further enhance his credentials.
