BKB Bare Knuckle Boxing recently announced the finalized main event for BKB 61, featuring an all-UK headliner between former IBF Featherweight Champion “Lightning” Lee Selby and fast-rising super lightweight prospect Ollie “The Death” Sentance. BKB 61 goes down on Sat., Nov. 14, 2026, live at indigo inside The O2 in London, England.
Selby (1-0, 1 KO) made the successful jump to bare knuckle boxing at BKB 55 back in June, defeating Antonio Rizzo by way of second-round TKO.
“I’m really looking forward to getting back in the Trigon and fighting in London again,” Selby said. “Ollie is a tough opponent and I know he’ll be coming to bring a fight, so I’m expecting a proper battle. It’s always special fighting in front of the British fans, and I’m excited to headline BKB 61 and put on a great night for everyone at The O2.”
Sentance (2-0, 2 KOs) holds experience in multiple disciplines of combat sports including mixed martial arts and kickboxing. The Kidderminster native made his debut at BKB 51 back in February, scoring a fourth-round TKO win over Nico Earwaker, then followed that up with a second-round TKO win over Corey Healey at BKB 55.
“Lee Selby is a former world champion and has achieved a lot in boxing, so I have nothing but respect for what he’s done,” Sentance said. “But this is bare knuckle boxing, and when we step into the Trigon, none of that matters. I’ve worked hard for this opportunity and I’m coming to London to test myself against one of the best names in the sport. I’m ready for the challenge and I’m coming to put on a fight the fans will remember.”
