BURBANK, CALIFORNIA (November 12, 2026) — BKB Bare Knuckle Boxing, the world’s largest professional bare knuckle boxing organization, has announced that the upcoming Bally’s Fight Night by BKB event, originally scheduled to take place at Bally’s Dover Casino Resort in Dover, Delaware on November 20, will now be held at Estrella Studios in Burbank, California, on Saturday, November 21.

Headlining the exciting eight-fight card will still be the highly-anticipated bare knuckle boxing debut of former WBO Junior Welterweight World Championship challenger “Hammerin’” Hank Lundy, as he takes on Jairo “Almighty” Santos in the welterweight main event. In the welterweight co-main event, “Killa” Kylle McMillan faces James “Get Down” Brown, who makes his BKB debut.

Also added to the card, reigning BKB Featherweight World Champion Helen “Iansã” Peralta returns to action to face the undefeated Kat “The Perfect Weapon” Connor in a welterweight contest. Peralta brings championship pedigree and a wealth of combat sports experience into the Trigon as she takes on a stern challenge in Connor.

Plus, former BKB Super Middleweight World Champion Jose “The GOAT” Fernandez meets Matt “The Hawk” Socholotiuk in a battle of middleweight knockout artists.

The super heavyweight bout between Jesse “The Reaper” Sparks and Richard “Silverback” Carmack, meanwhile, has been moved to a separate upcoming BKB event.
