Hank Lundy To Make BKB Bare-Knuckle Debut in Dover

This move tests how a nearly two-decade pro boxing career will translate to BKB's three-sided Trigon as the promotion brings its Bally’s Fightnight series to Delaware.

Overview

  • BKB and Bally’s announced Monday that Lundy will fight at the Rollins Center in Dover on Nov. 20 with doors at 6 p.m. ET and the card starting at 7 p.m. ET.
  • The opponent for Lundy’s debut has not been named and the rest of the fight card is still being finalized.
  • Lundy signed a multi-fight deal with BKB in July and brings a reported 32-14-1 pro boxing record with 14 knockouts and a 2016 world-title challenge against Terence Crawford.
  • The Dover show is BKB’s first event in Delaware and will stream exclusively on Bally’s digital platforms, which will also display ForceIQ punch-sensor data during broadcasts.
  • Promoters frame the booking as part of BKB’s U.S. expansion and a test of whether veteran gloved boxers can adapt their style to the Trigon format, a shift that could reshape late-career options for fighters.
