The 12-round battle as well as the action on the undercard will be aired on BT Sport in the UK and ESPN+ in the US.
Conlan, 31, lost to Leigh Wood in March of last year in a bout that was ultimately awarded Ring Magazine’s Fight of the Year after being stopped in the 12th round. The tenacious Irishman has since rebounded with convincing victories over Karim Guerfi and Miguel Marriaga (UD 10 and TKO 1, respectively).
The Belfast man is utterly certain that he will defeat Lopez now that he is operating at full capacity.
By deciding to defend his crown for the first time in Belfast against Conlan, 29, Lopez has made a bold decision. The Mexican star has faced challenges before, though. Lopez won the title in December in Leeds, England, by unseating the reigning champion Josh Warrington. It would be an understatement to say that the atmosphere was hostile.
