The action kicks off early on DAZN, so mark your calendars and settle in for a day of fights that promise drama, grit, and maybe a surprise or two.
Allen vs. Hrgovic: A Heavyweight Gamble in Doncaster
The main event in Doncaster, England, sees popular heavyweight Dave Allen (25-8-2, 20 KO) step into the ring against legitimate top-10 contender Filip Hrgovic (19-1, 14 KO). Allen, a fan favorite known for his humility and honesty, has openly admitted he's a domestic-level fighter. That makes this bout a massive leap in competition. Hrgovic, despite a recent loss, remains a serious threat with real power. Allen will have the home crowd behind him at Eco-Power Stadium—home of Doncaster Rovers FC—but he'll need the best performance of his 34-year-old career to pull off a miracle. Boxing has seen stranger things, but this is a steep hill to climb.
Keyshawn Davis vs. Nahir Albright 2: Redemption or Repeat?
The co-main event features a rematch that has fight fans buzzing. Lightweight prospect Keyshawn Davis looks to settle the score with Nahir Albright after their first clash left questions unanswered. Davis, known for his slick skills and Olympic pedigree, will need to sharpen his game to avoid another tricky night. Albright, a tough and experienced operator, proved he can hang with the rising star. Expect a tactical battle where every punch counts, and the winner takes a big step toward title contention.
Stein vs. Carmona: Super Middleweight Showdown
Earlier in the day, the undercard from Ingolstadt, Germany, features Granit Stein (20-1-1, 11 KO) taking on Mexico's Diego Carmona (14-3, 11 KO) in a super middleweight clash. Stein has a shiny record but has yet to face elite competition—his only loss came to a journeyman in New York. Carmona, who has struggled outside Mexico, might be the toughest test of Stein's career. This fight could reveal whether Stein is a genuine contender or just a domestic standout.
Undercard Highlights: British Title Action
Don't sleep on the undercard in Doncaster. Louie O'Doherty defends his British and Commonwealth lightweight titles against Ahmed Hatim in a clash that promises fireworks. Also, Michael Gomez Jr. faces Lee McGregor in what could be an all-action affair. Both bouts have the potential to steal the show, with local pride and career momentum on the line.
Why You Should Watch
This card is a mix of high-risk gambles, grudge matches, and rising prospects. Whether you're rooting for the underdog, studying technique, or just love a good fight, May 16 has something for every boxing fan. Grab your gear, find your spot, and get ready for a day of unforgettable moments in the ring.
