Timeline

2006

In April 2006, Kelly challenged Simone Maludrottu at the Andersonstown Leisure Centre in Belfast. Kelly was attempting to become the first Irishman to capture the European bantamweight title and the first Irish fighter to win the European title at two different weights.

In the following rematch in Maludrottu's hometown of Olbia, Sardinia, Italy on 25 November 2006, Maludrottu stopped Kelly inside three rounds after Kelly's trainer Mickey Hawkins threw in the towel. Kelly announced his retirement immediately after the fight stating "the time has come for me to walk away. The defeat on Saturday night just confirmed that to me. Every sportsman comes to a point when they know they are at that stage when it is time to go. I've had a great career with highs and lows and I've achieved an awful lot". This was to be Kelly's last fight, although he was still the number one ranked Irish bantamweight boxer at the time.

2005

Kelly again returned to boxing, now under the guidance of Tommy Gilmour to rebuild his career. After two more wins in his native Belfast, he defeated Jason Booth to win the IBO super-flyweight title. This win lined Kelly up with a fight against Vic Darchinyan, again for the IBF title in November 2005, but this fight fell through after a dispute as to whether the fight should take place in Sydney, Australia or somewhere in Ireland or Great Britain as well as a dispute over the purse. Kelly's future then looked uncertain, although he did face and defeat Ian Napa in Liverpool on the day he was supposed to face Darchinyan, beating Napa on points.

2002

After a win over Jovy Oracion in October 2002, Kelly was then out of the ring for almost a year and only returned in September 2003 to an unexpected fight against Irene Pacheco at the Salón Jumbo del Country Club, Barranquilla, Atlantico, Colombia for the IBF flyweight title.

2000

Kelly returned to the ring five months later and won the WBC International super-flyweight title against Igor Gerassimov. Kelly quickly added the European flyweight title in February 2000 and the IBO flyweight title in September 2000. Kelly's winning streak continued with a further addition to his record when he added the lightly regarded WBF flyweight title in May 2002.

1999

His next fight was against British flyweight champion Anthony Hana in March 1999. Kelly defeated Hana via PTS to add the British title to his Commonwealth belt. He next fought Keith Knox, who had been knocked out by Lambarda earlier in 1998. Kelly was leading on points when the fight was stopped in the sixth round due to cuts. Kelly had a number of cuts to his hairline and a bad cut above his right eye when the referee stopped the fight sending Kelly to suffer his first defeat as a professional.

1998

Kelly won his first seven fights, five by KO, before he had a chance to fight for his first title in December 1998 when he challenged Alfonso Zvenyika Lambarda for his Commonwealth flyweight title in Chester, England. Kelly won this fight via points decision (PTS) over twelve rounds.

Kelly was a major underdog going into the fight as Pacheco was highly rated and as, with the exception of a fight against Mike Thomas in the US in 1998, Kelly had never fought as a professional outside Ireland and Britain.

1997

Kelly, under the mentorship of Mickey Hawkins, then turned professional in September 1997, gaining a victory in his debut fight at the Ulster Hall in Belfast, with a first-round knockout (KO) over Chris Thomas on a card that included Steve Robinson, Julius Francis and fellow Northern Irishman Neil Sinclair.

1996

Kelly followed that bronze medal with another bronze medal at the 1996 European Championships in Vejle, Denmark. The bronze medal Kelly won at the European Championship in Vejle gave him automatic qualification for the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, US, where he reached the quarter-finals.

Member of the 1996 Irish Olympic Team as a flyweight. His results were:

1993

During his career fighting for the national team he won a bronze medal at the flyweight division during the 1993 World Championships in Tampere, Finland.
