Julain “Pit Bull Jr.” Fernandez
Julian “Pit Bull Jr.” Fernandez recently dropped into the “En Esta Esquina” podcast to hang out with host Carlos Baltazar for episode 120, and the champ had plenty on his mind. Ahead of his BKB Super Cruiserweight title defense against Dan “Big Pod” Podmore, Fernandez sounded completely dialed in. Stepping back into the Trigon, he brings a flawless 3-0 bare-knuckle record built entirely on blistering knockouts and relentless forward pressure. But Podmore isn’t just showing up for a paycheck. Carrying a gritty 9-4 record with eight brutal stoppages of his own, he poses a massive threat. When these two contrasting styles finally collide in the ring, an absolute war is basically guaranteed.
Bare Knuckle Chaos Hits Mexico
For the first time ever, BKB is dragging its unique brand of chaos straight down to Mexico. On September 19, Tijuana’s Auditorio Municipal will host BKB 59, a massive joint venture alongside Zanfer Boxing Promotions. Expect a wildly stacked lineup packed with local talent, capped off by two world championship bouts that should deliver non-stop fireworks.
Huge Co-Main Event Title Fight
The violence definitely doesn’t start and end with the headliners. In the co-main event, Tijuana’s own Cecy Ulloa steps up against Andy “The CrAsian” Nguyen to battle for the vacant BKB Super Flyweight World Championship. It’s a life-changing opportunity for both women to cement their legacy, so you can expect them to leave everything on the canvas.
