BKB Finalizes BKB 60 Card for Newcastle With Dy vs. McHugh Headlining

Overview

• BKB announced the full BKB 60 card on Monday, Sept. 14, confirming the event for Saturday, Oct. 10 at Utilita Arena Newcastle and naming Rolando Dy vs. Scott McHugh as the main event for the BKB Super Welterweight World Championship.
• The co-main pairs Britain’s Mark O’Neil with Poland’s Kamil Sokolowski and the main card includes former IBF champion Joseph “JoJo” Diaz Jr. in his first U.K. bare-knuckle fight against Brian Hyslop.
• BKB set the schedule and distribution: preliminaries will stream on BKB’s TikTok channel at 5:30 p.m. BST and the main card will begin at 7:00 p.m. BST on VICE TV and Telemundo in the U.S. and talkSPORT in the U.K. and Ireland.
• The card change follows a late reshuffle after Mick Terrill’s short-notice bout at BKB 58 resulted in an injury that removed him from the Newcastle plan and elevated the Dy–McHugh title fight to the headliner.
• The event furthers BKB’s U.K. expansion by using marquee crossover fighters and finished-orientated matchups to draw attention, while the recent short-notice adjustments highlight questions about fighter readiness and booking stability to watch going forward.
