Mick Terrill is coming home.<\/p>\n
The former BKFC World Heavyweight Champion and current BKFC UK Heavyweight Champion recently signed an exclusive multi-fight promotional agreement with BKB Bare Knuckle Boxing, bringing the 42-year-old \u201cButcher of Shields\u201d back to where his bareknuckle career started.<\/p>\n
Terrill (10-2, 10 KOs) previously competed under the original BKB UK banner from 2016 to 2018, capturing the heavyweight title at BKB 5 with a second-round knockout over John Lewis.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is where I made my name, and it feels right to be back,\u201d Terrill said. \u201cBKB has always been about real fighters and real competition. I\u2019ve tested myself against the best in the world, and now I\u2019m coming back to prove I\u2019m still the most dangerous heavyweight in the sport. Gustavo Trujillo \u2014 I\u2019m coming for you. That\u2019s the fight I want, and I\u2019m ready to take that crown.\u201d<\/p>\n
Trujillo (8-0, 8 KOs) is the current BKB heavyweight champion.<\/p>\n
\u201cRe-signing Mick Terrill is a massive move for BKB,\u201d said BKB CEO David Tetreault. \u201cHe\u2019s a proven world champion, a knockout artist, and a true heavyweight force. This move reinforces what we\u2019ve been building – BKB is where the best fighters in the world want to compete. Bringing Mick back into the fold raises the bar for the entire division and sets up some of the biggest fights possible in bare knuckle boxing.\u201d<\/p>\n
A date and opponent for Terrill\u2019s Trigon return are expected in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mick Terrill is coming home.
