BKB 61 goes down on Sat., Nov. 14, 2026, live at indigo inside The O2 in London, England.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">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.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">\u201cI\u2019m really looking forward to getting back in the Trigon and fighting in London again,\u201d Selby said. \u201cOllie is a tough opponent and I know he\u2019ll be coming to bring a fight, so I\u2019m expecting a proper battle. It\u2019s always special fighting in front of the British fans, and I\u2019m excited to headline BKB 61 and put on a great night for everyone at The O2.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">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.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">\u201cLee Selby is a former world champion and has achieved a lot in boxing, so I have nothing but respect for what he\u2019s done,\u201d Sentance said. \u201cBut this is bare knuckle boxing, and when we step into the Trigon, none of that matters. I\u2019ve worked hard for this opportunity and I\u2019m coming to London to test myself against one of the best names in the sport. I\u2019m ready for the challenge and I\u2019m coming to put on a fight the fans will remember.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"BKB Bare Knuckle Boxing recently announced the finalized main event for BKB 61, featuring an all-UK headliner between&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":912672,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[571],"tags":[64,63,34465,802,43957,40762,85],"class_list":["post-912671","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-bare-knuckle-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-boxing-news-results","tag-latest-ufc-mma-news","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/912671","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=912671"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/912671\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/912672"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=912671"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=912671"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=912671"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
