BKB, the biggest and baddest bare knuckle boxing company in the world, announced today that four title fights featuring stars from around the world will headline its historic 50th show at the James L. Knight Center (400 SE 2nd Ave, Miami, FL 33131) in Miami January 31, 2026.
Said BKB CEO David Tetreault, “Hosting our 50th event here in our hometown of Miami is more than a milestone for BKB—it’s a statement. Bare knuckle boxing as you see it today was forged in the modern era by BKB, and from day one we’ve set the standard for how this sport is presented, regulated, and grown on a global stage. We didn’t just bring bare knuckle back—we built its future. As we look ahead, the momentum has never been stronger. With new innovations, bigger opportunities for our fighters, and unprecedented expansion on the horizon, 2026 is shaping up to be the biggest year in BKB history.”
In the BKB 50: Evolution main event, Alberto “El Indio” Blas will take on Brandon “Slaughterhouse” Birr for the inaugural BKB Super Featherweight Championship. Fighting out of Miami by way of Matanzas, Cuba, Blas is one of the sports’ top stars, boasting a 7-0 record with seven first-round knockouts. Blas has focused his career entirely on bare knuckle boxing where he has dominated opponents, leaving BKFC as their reigning Bantamweight Champion, and, after an impressive BKB debut this past August, shows no signs of slowing down. At BKB 50, he faces arguably his toughest opponent yet when he takes on 4-2 battle-tested former BKB Featherweight Champion Birr of Cleveland, Ohio.
In the co-main event, one of bare knuckle boxing’s most popular and talented fighters, BKB Women’s Welterweight Champion Jamie Driver (Boca Raton, FL by way of Pennington, NJ), defends her title against Imbituba, Brasil’s Bianca Diamoni.
Rounding out the evening’s championship bouts are BKB Men’s Welterweight Champion Javon Wright (Los Angeles, CA by way of St. Louis, MO) defending against undefeated Dan Gittens (5-0, 5 KOs) of Essex, England; and Puerto Vallarta, Mexico’s Cecy Ulloa and Havana, Cuba Nelsey Torres battle for the vacant BKB Super Flyweight Championship.
In addition to the title fights, also slated for the card are: 6-2 Henry Williams taking on Jordan Nash, former BKB Super Middleweight champion Jose Fernandez vs. Joshua Sikes, a battle of top-ranked international stars as Serbia’s Serob Minasyan takes on England’s Aaron McCallum, Rudisiel Mora vs. Brett Hudson, Austin Spivey vs. Nicholas Abello, and Marcos Lloreda vs. German Ramos.
The January 31 event will mark the 50th show in BKB’s storied history. Founded in Miami in 2014 as the first sanctioned bare knuckle league in the US, BKB (then-BYB) helped usher in a new age of combat sports – built for excitement and, with the patented Mighty Trigon, prompting 70% faster outcomes. BKB took the buzz and urban fight culture from backyard, fighting popularized viral YouTube clips, and commercialized it into a global sport. Today, BKB is broadcast in over sixty countries internationally and is the largest bare knuckle boxing company in the world, with the largest library, roster and global distribution network.
BKB 50 will air live in North America in English on VICE TV and in Spanish on Telemundo; and in Europe and internationally on talkSPORT. Tickets are on sale now at Visit bkbbareknuckle.com and follow on social @bkbbareknuckle for tickets, information and all ways to watch.
