BKB 22, Live From The O2 London Saturday 11th September 2021, 7pm GMT
22 fighters go head to head in the most exciting night of combat sports in the world champions from MMA and gloved boxing take the gloves off for knockout action provided by the only legal sanctioned bare knuckle boxing company in the world BKB.
This should be scheduled as the night of champions, we have the best of the best legends galore with Ricky ‘The Bull’ Nelder and Kris ‘Trez’ Trezise fighting out of Fitness Factory Birmingham, the home of BKB ran by Simon Haycock, Trez and Nelder are in company with the likes of Daniel Podmore, Connor Tierney and Nathan Leeson to name but a few. Trezise and Nelder are legends of the Bare Knuckle world and house hold names that will be no doubt the first two fighters in the BKB Hall Of Fame.
Decastro vs Hilz will be a great fight with two hard hitting fighters, this is for the British lightweight championship and is going to be a battle.
Then to end the night its the re-match everyone has been waiting for Jimmy ‘The King’ Sweeney vs Ricardo Franco. After there first fight ended in a 6th round stoppage making Franco the lightweight Champion, Sweeney will come here to get revenge and we’re positive he will.
Tickets are still on sale if you’re interested in attending then go ahead and contact BKB, Fitness Factory Birmingham or the O2 ticket office. Alternatively message us here at Degen Sports and we will point you in the right direction.
Our Picks:
Nelder vs Gibson (Updated Match)
Ricky Nelder is back and he will be all business, his training hard and we see nothing but a K.O here for this legend. Gibson is a travelled BKB Fighter who has also had a lot of fights with other promotions, but we still think Nelder will be too much.
Curragh vs Trezise
I don’t know much about Curragh (except its a place in Ireland) but I do know he’s taking on an absolute warrior, Trezise is ready. He’s had a long time to prepare due to the show being re-scheduled and he will leave here with a win.
Hilz vs Decastro
Hilz has his second shot at the BKB British Lightweight Championship and we don’t see Team War Ready passing it up.
The Main Event:
Sweeney vs Franco
This should be a close one to call, both fighters are machines but Sweeney is the king and he will be in the best shape of his life. Hard to see anything other then a Sweeney win.
Other Fights:
Morgan vs Hick
Tracey vs Godfrey
Barbaru vs Lyall
Bindon vs Pernica
Murray vs Levitchi
Lafferty vs Lawson
One Fight TBA
