Former featherweight world champion Skye Nicolson made a successful move down to junior featherweight on Saturday, halting Carla Camila Campos Gonzales inside two rounds at Manchester’s AO Arena. Nicolson, fighting for the first time since her lone professional defeat to Tiara Brown, dominated from the opening bell, forcing the referee to intervene early in the second stanza. The Australian southpaw improves to 13-1 (2 KOs) and immediately set her sights on pursuing a second divisional world title, targeting a return on a home-country card in August or September. The bout opened the televised portion of the Jack Catterall-Harlem Eubank bill promoted by Matchroom Boxing and streamed globally on DAZN.
