Caoimhin Agyarko has been called up to replace Ishmael Davis in the British light-middleweight title eliminator, facing Ryan Kelly in Sheffield on April 19.
Davis was forced to withdraw from the fight due to injury.
Agyarko, a 28-year-old from Belfast, has an undefeated record of 16 wins, with his most recent victory coming on March 30 against Harley Collison at York Hall.
Prior to that, he secured wins against Troy Williamson and Bahadur Karami in Belfast during December 2023 and August 2024, respectively.
Ryan Kelly, the 31-year-old Englishman, is coming off a split-decision loss to Kieron Conway in November.
With 25 professional bouts under his belt, Kelly boasts 19 wins, five losses, and one draw.
The highly anticipated fight will take place at the Canon Medical Arena and will be part of an exciting undercard featuring unbeaten Dalton Smith defending his super-lightweight title against Canada’s Mathieu Germain.
Agyarko’s addition to this title eliminator fight offers fans a fresh and thrilling matchup, as the undefeated Belfast fighter looks to continue his impressive rise in the light-middleweight division.
With Kelly’s experience and recent defeat, the fight promises to deliver high drama and potential for both fighters.
