The Super Featherweight Division presents a headliner, high-demand boxing fight between Recce Bellotti versus Michael Gomez Jr..  This matchup is set to be a Co-Main event under the 130 lbs (59.0 kg) weight class. On the line in this boxing fight are the British and Commonwealth Super Featherweight titles currently being held by Recce Bellotti. Both fighters have won all of their last five bouts. All action will take place at Co-OP LIVE Arena, Manchester, Lancashire, and will be aired on ESPN+.

Recce Bellotti is currently on an unbeatable run of five bouts. He is currently fighting out of Watford, Hertfordshire, with a foundation in boxing. His last fight was three months ago, July 6, 2024, in MB against Levi Giles. This bout ended in a unanimous decision victory with Recce defending his British Commonwealth Super Featherweight Title. He won this title first on October 21, 2023, against Aqib Fiaz through a retirement (Corner Stoppage) in the eighth round. He went on to defend the title against Liam Dillon on February the following year. Between 2018 and 2021, Reece suffered one of the worst bouts run in his entire career, recording five losses out of seven. These losses were to Ray Ford (losing the vacant WBA Continental Featherweight Title), Jordan Gill (via unanimous decision), Francesco Grandelli (losing the vacant WBC International Silver Featherweight Title), Ryan Walsh (via split decision), and Ryan Doyle (failing to defend his Commonwealth Featherweight Title).

Michael Gomez Jr. boasts of a professional record of twenty-one wins and a loss. The 29-year-old born rumpsall, Lancashire Boxer, is currently on an eleven-win streak. He is fighting out of Moston, Manchester, and last fought on April 13, 2024, in MB. This fight was against Kane Baker. and ended just before the sixth round could get half way in defending his English Super Featherweight Title. On March 25, 2023, Gomez won the vacant English super featherweight title against Levi Giles via a split decision victory. Prior to that, he successfully defended his British Central Area Super Featherweight Title against Brian Phillips via a unanimous decision victory. Other victories recorded by Gomez were against Joshua Ocampo (via points decision), Ezequiel Gregores (via unanimous decision), Christian Lopez Flores (via unanimous decision), Jahfieus Faure (via TKO/KO), Sufyaan Ahmed (via KO/TKO), Cristian Narvaez (via KO/TKO), Ricky Leach (via points decision), and Dean Jones (via majority decision). 

Both fighters truly have a chance of claiming the title belt. Gomez obviously has more wins and also titles. Reece will be fighting with all might to get this win. Going the end on the road in this fight won't favor Reece that much. I believe that Gomez will settle in well and fight to the distance, as it will be his obvious chance of getting a win.
