00:04right lads you both know the rules so let's just have a good clean fight okay most of all
00:10remember to defend yourselves at all times all right just close clean was the word that was
00:16highlighted there tasty looking match up in the lightweight division needle skills heart all in
00:26the mix seconds out michael gomez jr and lee mcgregor battling it out on this super stadium night it
00:36could be a really good one especially early yeah i think gomez jr is going to walk forward he might
00:41walk on to a couple but i think his plan will be to try and wear down mcgregor be the
00:47boss physically
00:48but he's a lovely body shot's been sunk in by mcgregor blistering hand speed barry yeah and i
00:54think the key the key shot for mcgregor is that right uppercut gomez is going to keep walking
00:58and down walking down he might forget the length of his shots he might get too close good body shots
01:03early here from mcgregor team are applauding in the red corner gomez just walking forward in a
01:09straight line and he's being picked off early
01:15good right uppercut back though look at these body shots from mcgregor who started absolutely
01:23beautifully sinking them in and reminding us of his talent here and if michael gomez jr didn't think
01:30he was in a fight well now he does know plenty of mexicans here isn't there oh hook's an uppercut
01:36the body shot back from gomez jr there's an uppercut mcgregor walked into that what a start
01:42he's got 70 seconds he's got to turn in here gomez when mcgregor's holding on you've got to
01:46use that strength that natural size and turn and throw him around yeah lean on
01:52that paid dividends down the stretch nice jab from gomez jr
02:02he's brought the speed up hasn't he mcgregor that's very evident early and gomez jr trying
02:08to get his jab going and settle down that was good and heavy and meaty but a body shot back
02:14from mcgregor
02:15in one of the best opening rounds we've seen so far in 2026
02:19in a huge right uppercut from gomez jr but look at his work from mcgregor fantastic start his body he's
02:27trying to beat him in his own game here but gregor early who'd have thought this this is how mcgregor
02:33fights he loves throwing body shots and not because truly that's some of his best work in the past
02:38but so early look at this against gomez who's the naturally bigger guy the guy coming off the terrific
02:45win over jordan flynn and lee mcgregor well he's chucked the respect out the window and just got
02:52down to work it was really smart of mcgregor when he pushed gomez jr onto the ropes usually you wouldn't
02:59say get that close you can smuggle your work but he found the target by just screwing the shot through
03:04the middle but back comes gomez gomez works well here back into the round and mcgregor feels a couple
03:11some blood as well yeah use that strength you're absolutely right as there's some damage around
03:19lee mcgregor's eyes body shot with the left hook is so good blood from the nose that three minutes i
03:26think
03:27is the best domestically we've seen this year maybe but last week i mean you couldn't have got better
03:38at heavyweight than what we saw with deborah and wardley but that fabulous
03:46work maybe you're breathing out his arms okay keep making him work keep sticking that in his face
03:53yeah when he goes with a big left hook he's there yeah yeah he's trying to find the counter right
03:58hand yeah yeah keep the left hand tight when you go yeah when he backs to the ropes yeah he's
04:03open
04:05for that straight right hand mate yeah loop it down chop it right down beautiful i feel
04:10fucking beautiful boxing we wanted him to stand but he's standing yeah yeah deep breath from me
04:15do you want to drink
04:20hold your mind 10 seconds seconds seconds out round two the echo power stadium the rain just dripping down
04:36off the uh the canopy and onto us at ringside we're a bit undercover tonight our notes are splattered with
04:46water we don't need them with the action being as white hot as it is so far between michael gomez
04:53jr mgj in the purple and the white of lightning lee mcgregor suck it up well gomez jr as he
05:02creeps forward
05:04it does give mcgregor the opportunity to tap up and drop exactly like he does there that left to the
05:10body and throwing throws as well isn't it swapping bowling shots gomez jr trying to box and be like his
05:20dad
05:21we love that excitement thrilling uppercut good but bring this has got to be careful when he's in
05:27close yeah when he throws that left hook 55 punches now in the first round but that was the best
05:39of the
05:39fight so far from gomez and the thing is gonna hold on here nathaniel collins took it out and this
05:45is up a
05:46lightweight and i said he's got to be careful in close
05:51i'll tell you what i was always skeptical i wasn't sure how much gomez jr i'll be honest watching some
05:59of
05:59his earlier fights how much he's been able to improve he has come on bumbles he really has
06:06more thought in his work more thought in his defense
06:12still mcgregor tries to utilize the engine speed but the power shots with gomez and the upper cut
06:20absolute corker through the middle
06:22i said mcgregor the key shot from mcgregor's i like it because it's been gomez who's had success
06:32in the second round more please live on the zone what a fantastic chief support this is turning out
06:41to me oh what a shot for that right uppercut look at the counter with the left hook needs to
06:48be a bit sharper
06:50it's the right shot look at the smile as the commentary desk from gomez jim here yeah there was
06:56just a knowing look at you darren from michael there in the ring in the heat of the cauldron mcgregor
07:04who's had such a good start here with some beautiful shots that he's picked but he's been hurt
07:09in this second round and now he holds and that's the difference here there's no effect on the
07:14shots that he's throwing here mcgregor even though he is landing with good shots but when gomez
07:18is down his hands go he's landing on target they feel it
07:26yeah he's tucking up nice he's taking that left hook with mcgregor on the gloves
07:31look at the two of them come on we've loved it six minutes in michael gomez juniors dancing
07:39and we're all having a party in dog casa tonight
07:46yeah he's just physically so strong isn't he the naturally bigger out of the two
07:50and there was that nice stunning right hand from gomez jr that unraveled
07:56mcgregor ever so slightly in that round
08:00back on mcgregor though heart of a line we've seen that in the past but
08:05very good display wasn't it in that round some great quality and then we're really both pushing
08:09forward but in the inside of the chin down
08:11it's really really good
08:12jump to the body right hand don't worry about hot them score the punches
08:18let the hands go come on come on he's getting tired
08:2110 seconds corners don't worry about hurting him says billy nelson just keep to the quality
08:26second's out but i think he was round three just befuddled a couple of times there mcgregor
08:32in the second round on we go this is where michael gomez juni looks so impressive against jordan
08:39flint who was brave but beaten early on that uh moses etalma night when etalma shone against
08:47jermaine franklin etalma's going to be very interested to see what happens in the next fight with
08:51pergovic and alan but it's just eyes on this one for the moment and at the minute it's the physical
08:57strength and size as evidence here for gomez mcgregor firing back and staying with him but
09:03just more in effect when he lands with the shot here for gomez and he's picking the right shots
09:07gomez you know he's not wasting much he's finishing with the right hand he'll drop to the body as he
09:11does there good variation good body shot from mcgregor he almost picks them better but the
09:20harder looking artillery coming from gomez who's keeping his shape and the defense is okay too
09:27almost getting the impression gomez jr won't mind this he'll want mcgregor to keep busy let his hands go
09:34he'll be thinking this fight is his down the stretch and also mcgregor's in front of him
09:39isn't he wants him there so we've always blocked him and not really feeling the effects
09:44he's ready to conquer with with what you saw there a little bit of a combination
09:4825th fight for gomez jr the 20th for mcgregor how well matched they are but is the weight difference
09:56crucial i'll tell you what though this is brilliant from mcgregor he's trying to be the boss here not just
10:01with the output right but with the physical strength darren he is brilliant he's got so much
10:06ability i've always thought that name mcgregor parry yeah but when he did this as a band of weight
10:11it had an effect on his opponent they couldn't fight about they had the hole they get on their toes
10:16and move away oh they ended on the floor quite often tell you what that'd be interesting if he can
10:21keep this going mcgregor he's certainly asking gomez some questions with his whipping body shots
10:30right right the mac was required there from mcgregor he's got gomez jr pinned on the ropes
10:36he left took the hit from mcgregor he has a lovely shot wasn't it he's quick mcgregor
10:42and he throws his punches beautifully yes but again though he's not working very dramatically in this
10:48role but when gomez does let his hands go and now he's with the shot there's an effect
10:53he's hurting mcgregor but the head's going not bad he's pushing the back with shots
11:00good effort from mcgregor really really good these body shots are good but when he throws that left to
11:04the body that's when i feel you need to see gomez jr gamble with that right uppercut
11:09doesn't really get over that front foot but he throws the left doesn't he barracks
11:12he was hurt in the second round mcgregor but he's had a really good third gomez tries to come
11:20back with a couple but too little too late at the end of the third which is definitely a lee
11:25mcgregor round
11:28great left up to the body from mcgregor rolling back the years can he sustain it good shot from gomez
11:36at
11:36the end what a fight that's cracking it really is fantastic battle setting the uh setting even up
11:45nicely for tonight's main event
11:46i want you to do
11:48i'm fucking telling you way too close
11:52it's a sort of a gap you've got to find yourself in there again
11:55don't need to be there you need to out box on the shelf still
12:01meanwhile the star of the show the white rhino on his white shirt he's got himself into the shape of
12:10his life he says there's no real pressure and he doesn't lose in doncaster but he's a huge underdog here
12:19is it not myself 10 seconds he's a massive that'd be a first
12:25then if he's a massive but look at him he looks like there's no pressure he's nice and relaxed i
12:29think
12:30that's such a positive sign if you can stay in that mindset then he might just be able to box
12:34the best
12:34he's ever boxed he'll need to though we still might not be enough we heard adam and leo thinking that
12:40dave allen can pull this off eddie hearn is uh ringside as well tonight he'll be hoping
12:46i think most of british boxing will be um keeping their fingers crossed can we get two massive
12:51upsets in the one week after the next zach shelley i spoke to him in the week he's gonna
12:57go he's taking a little break at the moment but he's gonna be back with those school kids on monday
13:01morning and he said he dared come back with a defeat a defeat he just stopped taking with morale
13:06and opened his life up he's listening to the corner here hasn't he yeah and they're applauding the
13:11work of mcgregor although it being pushed back he's trying to pick the shots stick to
13:15his boxing that served him so well in the amateurs but it didn't work for gomez jr here comes gomez
13:22jr
13:22rattling in heavy looking body shots you've got two fighters here who just left the strap that's
13:32the truth that's the truth and there might be a size disparity here but mcgregor loves to have a
13:37terror he really does and but he can box and i think that's just trying to remind you about that
13:41exactly he can box you don't become a european champion if you're covered that's right hand from gomez
13:47there's the uppercut body shot as well good spell from the manchester city fan they won the cup today
13:54and can he deliver the performance for his city for the middle here now for gomez there he is still
14:03looking
14:03for that uppercut straight through the blood from the nose of mcgregor but he's defying isn't he lee
14:09mcgregor yeah there's a lot of damage now to that iron mcgregor see it really start to swell oh again
14:16that
14:16right uppercut sickening shot and this is where the weight the natural advantage of the lightweight the
14:24physical difference but i tell you what in terms of spirit and want lee mcgregor's got everything
14:31can he cope though with the difference i'm not sure i tell you what he has got a natural size
14:36and strength
14:37but he's at the top of the nose here and he is so you've got to get his flowers for
14:41that man i'll tell
14:42you what big heavy left the winning and the right uppercut from gomez jr swinging this way and that
14:49mcgregor had a great third this is definitely advantage michael gomez jr and there's a stubble and he's
14:56going to take a knee 35 left in the court gomez already playing to the crowd looks at this corner
15:03gets up fairly quickly takes the count will he survive the round yeah still 30 odd seconds here
15:10in this fourth round but it was a great attack from gomez jr who looks menacing on the front foot
15:16eyes bad as
15:17well gomez jr on the break mcgregor has to throw back and they're still timing around for gomez to get
15:24the
15:24stoppage but mcgregor digging in he is firing back mcgregor look at this
15:31and he wants it though the eye is closing the heart is big but the power difference is there
15:40in gomez's favour brilliant when you finish on the right hand that's what he's gorgeous my mate that's what we
15:47want
15:48yeah big big round that wasn't it for gomez jr look at that work the variation the right uppercut
15:54the left hook went back with the uppercut kind of unorthodox in some ways and look at the effects
16:00it had but he come back didn't he mcgregor he did you know he started off he boxed well at
16:04the start of
16:04the round then he got caught with the shot and he got hurt and he reverted back the type everything
16:09billy nelson's been saying don't do and he put his head on the chest of or head on the forehead
16:13of gomez
16:14and started working with him and that put gomez back into that round and gomez then took over that was
16:19a lovely
16:20combination i mean this is such a a mexican sort of fight isn't it uppercut hook uppercut in every
16:25combination from seconds yep just like his dad entertaining his junior and after the knockdown i'm
16:32not sure what he was doing playing to the crowd but into the fifth round we love characters in this
16:37sport
16:37and mgj certainly one of those knocked down in the fourth lee mcgregor getting up and firing back but
16:46is it just a matter of time is there any way that mcgregor can get a foothold into this and
16:52try and
16:54hurt gomez and back him up it doesn't look like it now he doesn't have the success he would be
17:00hoping
17:01for in the back foot mcgregor a couple of good shots there though but it's just allowing this momentum
17:06this front foot pressure from gomez just to keep building all the time
17:25the fight could very nearly be stopped the gum shield is out in the neutral corner but the legs
17:33wet as well billy nelson having a good look at him the towel is in his hand and there's a
17:38long way left
17:39in the fifth round this is a break for lee mcgregor that he probably needed but look at the legs
17:46heavy shots aren't they raining in from gomez jr he wants it lee mcgregor proud scotsman
17:54and michael gomez jr knows that that advantage in physicality is beginning to have real effect
18:03that eyes looking nasty there as well and mcgregor starting to close up the lovely uppercut there from
18:08gomez who's yeah in the ascendance here fighting fire with fire mcgregor gripping into the canvas
18:18and trying to hurl the body shots it's so brave
18:23he's doing what he does best but it's just not working they're just balancing off the arms the
18:27gloves the head of gomez jr he's sort of changing up the power of the shots as well trying to
18:34confuse
18:35mcgregor that way can hardly see out of that right eye as well that's not helping mcgregor's cause but i
18:41tell you what he's a brave boy i say what gomez has done really well is took those elbows in
18:46tight
18:46so those body shots have almost been a no point because it's just he's blocked most of them with
18:50those elbows well i just did squeak through from mcgregor but how much power is on that up at
19:09seconds left pushing forward here mcgregor though unbelievable i think billy might put him out
19:15just keep your eye on that corner as well because he's been very bravely mcgregor
19:21they're building tough in scotland that's okay what you see i've done him a favor there coming
19:26forward because he was getting pushed back and he was landing the shots gomez jr as soon as mcgregor got
19:32on the chest is still another one look at this from mcgregor from lee mcgregor they're clapping him
19:39now in the corner the town's not with billy nelson at the moment they're giving him every chance
19:45they'll get him back and give him that minute break lee mcgregor showing the desire of a champion
19:51but walks into another huge shot from gomez jr wow what a round how did mcgregor get through
20:04do you want me around hey no
20:11i'm a loser mate
20:12you're a loser
20:15why
20:16you got a bit seething
20:18what round is this
20:21what that's next now
20:26you need to use this to help you man
20:29definitely bring it up he's starting to get tired i know you know but that doesn't mean you get
20:34reckless okay big deep breath
20:38one you're an educated boxer you try to fight all the time what is that come on you fight when
20:44you need
20:44you fight boxman
20:48because that's what you're good at the deep breath
20:52yeah good advice for billy nelson but has he got the physical and the mental well-being at the moment
20:58in this sort of shape lee mcgregor to execute those tactics he said at the beginning of that corner
21:04discussion will give him one more round and i think that was because of the effort in the last 20
21:09seconds of that
21:10yeah i think so the eye is a mess now and he's going to start getting that left hook into
21:15play
21:15i'm worsening it gomez junio and you know when a fight is tough because there's a panic in the corner
21:21from
21:34gomez junio and i think this is just one way traffic gomez junio has the intent to stop this
21:47oh and there's over two minutes left in the round barry look how strong he looks on the
21:52gomez is about full of energy doesn't he oh very dangerous
21:59trying so hard lee mcgregor that's that's bugging and weaving he's doing really working for a lot of
22:05guys keeping him in the fight he's got a guard as a cut yeah both eyes cut do you save
22:22him for another
22:23day he's got he's getting caught with fire too many let's go down come shield out again he's trying so
22:32hard i mean there was all the controversy last week about whether timey awarding was allowed to go on
22:37too long what are we thinking here will mcgregor i thought that was enough there but he's fighting
22:41back isn't he that's the problem you guys he's fighting back but the punch is not having any effect
22:45on gomez i would i would maybe call it yeah i think the writers on the wall here as you
22:53said saving for
22:54another day but he's at that stage of his career then he might not have another day
22:59still only 29 incredible he's had a long career and a successful career but his best days were at
23:07bantamweight and some of these punches are just bouncing off gomez jr and he's boxed at a high level
23:12very early in his career as well let's not forget that right right right right come on
23:19look at this effort he's the brave art isn't he scottish through and through
23:26and gomez jr is still trying to find the one or two punches to get the job done gomez you
23:33got to give
23:33him his credit as well he hasn't looked phased once whatever's going on he went there's been
23:38throw his back from mcgregor when he looked like he's going to take over we're going to fight his
23:41back and look phased almost another up account and mcgregor just falls into the ropes in front of us
23:4730 seconds left in the sixth round and there's another one and the towel is going to come in from
23:53billy nelson well done billy great call michael gomez jr shines again from manchester to docaster
24:03and there might be a nightclub later that's what his dad used to do i'll tell you what
24:09this is a story telling sport and he has another few chapters in the foot gomez jr looked like he
24:19was
24:19sizzling and then going flat but he's reignited over the last couple of fights two stoppages in a row
24:27gomez jr is a force now a lightweight yeah look a few things uh to talk about here first off
24:34it's the
24:35right call that was spot on from billy nelson you know he gave him every chance there to try and
24:40wear
24:41mcgregor down and get back into the contest and it just wasn't going to happen but the form
24:47of michael gomez jr is so impressive at the minute i didn't think he'd improve as much as he has
24:53but he's looking very good isn't he barry he isn't i mean he's his own person but he boxed more
24:59like
25:00his dad there than he ever has before i think and he looked fantastic doing it and he might be
25:04bigger
25:04but mcgregor's quality and he and mcgregor's tougher mcgregor was fighting with shots that
25:08you know could break your spirit a little bit and also when you're having success and then he he should
25:13be wilted and he's firing back gomez never looked phased he never lost his shape he kept his elbows tucked
25:18in tight throughout that fight and whatever the pressure it was and he was always having the better
25:22of the exchanges most of the time he fired back with quality work and that's probably his best
25:27performance against the best opposition he's faced by far yeah and respect now after the
25:32words in the build-up to that red corner billy nelson making a great call lee mcgregor went out on
25:39his
25:39shield what a terrific gutsy effort from a guy who's not a natural lightweight but he gave it everything
25:47and it's mg j who moves on and he's been really exciting hasn't he in 2026 we want to see
25:56more of
26:01jay
26:02ladies and gentlemen here is the official time two minutes 37 seconds of round number six
26:09the red corner retires their fighter and our referee in charge michael alexander accepts
26:16their retirement therefore your winner by way of technical knockout
26:22and now the wba international lightweight champion
26:27champion michael gomez jr
26:40carl that's a fantastic win for michael gomez jr look the boys are correcting pointing out the
26:45weight discrepancy between the two men but i mean michael gomez is a super
26:48god
