On November 22nd at the Charles F Dodge Center in Pembroke Pines, Florida, Gustavo “The Cuban Assassin” Trujillo (7-0, 7 KOs) defends his Bare Knuckle Boxing (BKB) heavyweight title against former WBA regular champion Lucas “Big Daddy” Browne (31-7, 27 KOs boxing; 1-0 BKB).The 32 year-old Trujillo, a Miami native by way of Cuba, has decimated the division with seven first-round knockouts, including former champions Lorenzo Hunt, Ike Villanueva and Richie Leak. Browne, a battle-tested Australian with a storied career facing boxing titans like Dillian Whyte, Jarrell Miller and James Toney, plus a 6-2 MMA record including a bout against UFC legend Daniel Cormier, aims to make history as the first fighter to hold titles in both professional boxing and bareknuckle (although Browne's WBA title was secondary tro begin with and tainted by PED issues). After winning via second-round stoppage in his BKB debut, Browne is ready to challenge Trujillo’s reign in a clash of titans.

Browne said: “I’m the sort of man who never looks at an opportunity like this and says no I won’t or can’t, it’s a massive opportunity and I’m taking it with both hands. It’s something that doesn’t come around often for many people so I will never not give it a try. I’m thankful to the BKB for considering me and I’ll make them proud also.”

The show will also feature three other BKB title fights: BKB light heavyweight Champion Barrie “The Welsh Wrecking Machine” Jones (11-1, 10 KOs) looks to avenge his only loss against two-division champion Lorawnt-T “Smash” Nelson. In their first fight, Nelson stopped Jones with a third-round knockout. Otherwise, Nelson boasts a resume with victories over champions Rico Franco, Nathan DeCastro and more. Jones brings his own legacy with wins over Jimmy Sweeney and Gregoris Cisneros. This grudge match-- for Nelson’s super middleweight title is set to steal the show.

Mexico's Yordan Fuentes (4-0, 2 KOs), a battle-hardened veteran with a decision win over former champion Jarome Hatch, faces undefeated Mexican knockout artist Julian Fernandez (2-0 BKB; 16-4 boxing) for the vacant BKB super cruiserweight championship. Fernandez brings an 80% KO rate from his boxing career, which includes losses to Frank Sanchez and Arslanbek Makhmudov.

BKB lightweight champion Jarod “Kid Gatti” Grant (8-2), who claimed the title in September, defends against mandatory challenger Jon Barnard (4-1). Grant’s relentless style earned him the interim title with a win over Jorge Bargallo, while Barnard’s only loss came in a title fight against junior welterweight champion Harry Gigliotti.
