Molly McCann Wins Pro Boxing Debut With Sixth-Round Stoppage in Belfast

The ex-UFC contender opened her Matchroom tenure with a televised victory that signaled a serious move into the ring.

Overview

  • McCann dropped Kate Radomska in round five and won when Radomska’s corner threw in the towel in the sixth, starting her boxing record at 1-0 (1 KO).
  • An unusual moment in round two saw Radomska appear to kick McCann, with no penalty issued by the referee; McCann later called it “cheeky.”
  • The bout took place at Windsor Park on the undercard of Lewis Crocker vs Paddy Donovan 2 and was broadcast live on DAZN.
  • McCann, 35, retired from MMA in March and signed a ten-fight deal with Matchroom in July, targeting a rise toward world-title contention.
  • Radomska, 35, fell to 4-8, with multiple outlets noting it marked her fifth straight defeat.
