At the Meta Apex event in Las Vegas, USA, the co-main event of the evening saw former world champion Mark Magsayo (29-2, 19 KOs) decisively defeat Irish ex-contender Fergal McCrory (17-2, 9 KOs). The bout took place in the lightweight division (up to 61.2 kg). Southpaw McCrory began the fight aggressively, taking the initiative, which was somewhat unexpected.
