Bare Knuckle Boxing returns to London in November.
BKB 61 goes down on Nov. 14 at the Indigo at O2 Arena in London.
Lee Selby will have the English home crowd rallying behind him as
he returns to the Trigon in the main event. The former IBF
featherweight world champion and the WBC international
featherweight champion will take on a yet-to-be-named opponent.
Lee Selby returns at BKB 61 in London after knockout win in his
bare-knuckle debut
BKB CEO David Tetreault said, “Lee Selby is a proven world champion
and one of the biggest names in boxing, so having him back in the
Trigon for BKB 61 is a huge moment for us. London is the perfect
stage for a fighter of his caliber, and we know the fans will
create an incredible atmosphere. As BKB continues to expand
globally, attracting champions and boxing stars like Lee is a
strong testament of our growth and momentum as the world’s largest
bare-knuckle boxing organization.”
Selby hung up his boxing gloves in 2022. He made his bare-knuckle
debut at BKB 55 this past June, knocking out Antonia Rizzo, who was
14 years younger than him.
“I’m excited to be back in the Trigon and to have the opportunity
to fight in London again,” Selby said. “I already know exactly what
BKB is all about, and I’m looking forward to getting back in there.
I’m ready to put on a great night for the fans.”
