Former boxing world champion Lee Selby makes BKB Bare Knuckle return at BKB 61 in London

Former IBF featherweight champion Lee Selby is scheduled to return to bare-knuckle boxing for the BKB 61 event in London. The Welsh boxer will headline the card on November 14 at the indigo inside the O2 Arena. Selby is currently preparing to face an opponent who has not yet been named.

This fight marks Selby's second appearance in the BKB promotion following a second-round knockout victory over Antonio Rizzo earlier this year. The 39-year-old retired from traditional gloved boxing in 2022 and is now aiming to secure a bare-knuckle world title shot by 2027.
