Callum Walsh kept his unbeaten record with a unanimous decision win over former European champion Tyler Denny in Dublin's 3Arena. He outscored Denny 98‑91 twice and 96‑90 on the judges' scorecards, retaining his top‑contender status.

The bout was dramatic. A knockdown in round one and a heavy drop in round two when a left‑cross sent Denny to the canvas set the tone. Walsh followed with a sharp right hook to finish the round, while Denny stayed doggedly resilient in the later rounds.

Despite a cut over his left eye and a contested point for holding, Walsh’s aggression and precise combinations kept Denny on the ropes. He landed a savage sequence of punches in the later rounds that left Denny stranded.

After the fight Walsh admitted he believed Denny had broken his orbital bone, reflecting on the difficult clash. He said he could have been better but will face Denny again. The bout was broadcast on Sky Sports and followed the card featuring Aaron McKenna vs Etinosa Oliha for the IBF title.
