Dirty Boxing 🥊 hits the Music City with stylish fists.
In its fourth event since its start on March 22nd of this year, Dirty Boxing came to the music capital of the world with its own unique style.
The 🐐 John Jones held a meet and greet with fans prior to the opening fight, where fans could briefly chat with him, get a picture, and even an autograph.
Folks from the likes of struggle Jennings, Yung-LA fashion designer, Boxing Legend Zab-Juda, as well as several social stars were in attendance for this event.
Last night’s bouts featured 12 fights in total that delivered hard hits, fast elbows, and knockouts. The second fight of the night featured female fighters Desiree Yanez & Maria Agapova.
These two ladies delivered a battle from start to finish with Desiree coming out on top by a split decision. The very next fight featured a pair of 185’s in James Cannon & Zaine “Sandman” Burton.
At first Zaine Burton was landing several good shots, but James landed a shot and he never looked back. James would go on to win in convincing fashion by unanimous decision (30-27).
In between fights platinum Mike Perry was very interactive with the fans and crowds as he was taking pictures, doing interviews, and really hammering on fan engagement.
Flash forward to the eighth fight of the night where heavyweights Michael Garcia & Levi Da Costa made history. They were the first fight where the “sudden death” rule had been used.
Their fight ended up going four rounds where Mr. Garcia would come out on top. At this point the crowd had somewhat come unhinged you could say 🤣.
The co-main event featured fan favorite former UFC fighter Bryan Battle, squaring off against Stockton’s own Nick Kohring. The kid from the 21O came out guns a-blazing so much that the crowd myself including had thought it was getting ready to be over.
And then what do you know, battle flipped a switch landed some quick shots, dropped him, and gave him one more for small measure, and got that TKO.
The final fight of the night featured highly regarded and known wrestler, Gable Stevenson, who faced off against Tennessee’s own, Billy Stevenson. Gable is coached by UFC legend John Jones.
The fight literally was over just as soon as it started. Gable Stevenson made quick work of Billy with an onslaught of punches, knocking him out in 15 seconds.
All in all, Dirty Boxing proved its perfect and unique blend of entertainment and skilled fighters is a fresh new twist on a different vibe in the MMA world.
I truly believe this isn’t going to be or will be a “fad”; this is going to and will only continue to grow and evolve.
