The five-fight main card will be headlined by a stylistic chess match between hometown star and No. 1-ranked former Interim Champion Logan Storley (14-2) and No. 7-ranked finishing machine Brennan Ward (17-6). A veritable title eliminator rematch will take place at heavyweight in the co-main event when No. 2-ranked Valentin Moldavsky (11-3, 1 NC) and unbeaten No. 3-ranked Steve Mowry (10-0-1, 1 NC) rematch almost exactly a year to the day No Contest at this same venue last year. Earlier, top middleweight contenders in No. 4-ranked Dalton Rosta (8-0) and No. 6-ranked Aaron Jeffery (13-4) will graduate from social media jabs to in-cage crosses and hooks, and Irish superstar James Gallagher (11-2) will take on James Gonzalez (10-6) in his first action since 2021.
