The inaugural Big Knockout Boxing card will take place Saturday night at the Mandalay Bay Hotel in Las Vegas with Bryan Vera taking on Gabriel Rosado for the BKB middleweight championship title headlining the event.
The new fighting league is different from traditional boxing as it is fought in a 17-foot circle with floor padding that goes up in slight angle instead of a square ring ropes surrounding it called “The Pit.”
In addition, rounds run five two minutes long instead of the traditional three minutes, with fights ranging from five rounds for regular bouts and seven rounds for title affairs.
You can catch all the action live on pay-per-view Saturday night beginning at 10 p.m. EDT/7 p.m. PDT for the price of $29.99
Before BKB could officially kick off the official weigh-in had to take place and it did Friday afternoon at the Mandalay Bay.
