MANCHESTER, England — Jack Catterall had a successful, albeit unspectacular welterweight debut to inflict Harlem Eubank's first pro defeat in their AO Arena headliner.

Before then, eight bouts across six weight divisions preceded them on Matchroom's latest venture to north-west England, read below for the prelim results.

The calm, skilful Wilkinson (12-2, 3 KOs) quickly found the mark with his southpaw jab and put an accurate left hand behind it regularly as the always aggressive Crolla was made to pay for a lack of head movement.

The heavy-handed Crolla (8-1, 6 KOs) had blazed through the early stages of his career but quickly ran out of ideas and began to press forward in straight lines. Halfway through the fifth he was badly hurt and bundled over after taking a hard left hand.

Wilkinson refused to let him off the hook. He got straight jumped straight back on Crolla, pinning him on the ropes and landing enough to force a stoppage at 1.07 of the sixth.

In March, Nicolson lost her title and unbeaten record to American’s Tiara Brown. The Australian has decided that she will now compete at super bantamweight and the fight with Gonzales was made at 124lbs.

Nicolson was far too good for the Bolivian. She hurt Gonzales with a straight southpaw left hand midway through the second round and referee, John Latham, quickly stopped the action after 1.21.
