The arena hit fever pitch when local favourite Nils Goitom made the walk to face Mohammad Jano. Goitom repaid every decibel, dragging Jano straight to the canvas and unleashing a relentless ground and pound with unanswered knees and brutal strikes to force the stoppage at 1:46 of Round 3. Supported by a massive, vocal home crowd in Manchester, the entire arena erupted in electric fashion.

In the co-main event, undisputed Welterweight Champion Tom Mullen retained his crown against Brazilian finisher Janderson ‘Cobrinha’ Conceicao da Silva. Facing a dangerous opponent boasting 12 career finishes, Mullen wasted no time imposing his dominance, closing the distance immediately and unleashing a barrage of unanswered strikes to score a devastating TKO victory in just 1:05 of the first round.

In our main event, the script was completely thrown out early as Alan Silva stunned heavy favourite Haider Khan. Khan entered the cage expecting to storm into title contention, but Silva disrupted the division just 16 seconds into the second round by catching Khan with a thunderous punch combination, claiming his fourth championship title in four years.
