DIRTY BOXING CHAMPIONSHIP: The Future of Combat Sports

Dirty Boxing: High Octane Combat Reimagined 

Dirty Boxing (DBX) merges the intensity of MMA striking with the precision of boxing, creating a hybrid combat sport that has quickly captured the attention of fight fans worldwide. Taking place in a tight 18 foot ring, DBX forces nonstop engagement. Fighters wear 5oz gloves, keeping punches sharp and devastating while maintaining MMA style aggression. The rules allow hands, spinning backfists, standing ground and pound, and clinch striking, resulting in fast paced, knockout heavy action that consistently delivers highlight reel finishes. Every second inside the DBX ring is designed for chaos, violence, and pure entertainment.

What Makes DBX Unique

Dirty Boxing’s rule set combines the most explosive aspects of MMA and boxing in one arena. The compact 18 foot vintage ring means there is nowhere to run and no room to stall. Fighters are encouraged to stay standing and trade, and with lighter 5oz gloves, knockout power is always on display. Every DBX card has produced viral finishes with spinning backfists, leaping hooks, and one punch knockouts, making it one of the fastest growing and most electrifying combat leagues in the world.

DBX Pilot (Invite Only Event)

Before the league officially launched, Dirty Boxing held an invite only pilot showcase in 2024 to test its format and gauge fan reaction. Hosted in a private venue with select fighters and influencers, the event featured names like Mike Perry and Yoel Romero testing the hybrid rules in real time. The closed door fights proved the concept instantly with fast exchanges, brutal knockouts, and nonstop action. Clips from the pilot went viral and set the tone for the league’s public debut, positioning DBX as a disruptive new force in combat sports.

DBX1

The first official DBX event took place on March 22, 2025, at The Hangar at Regatta Harbour in Miami, Florida. The card delivered fireworks from start to finish. In the main event, Yoel Romero defeated Ras Hylton by third round knockout, while Andrei Arlovski stopped Terrance Hodges via TKO in round two. Other highlights included Ulysses Diaz’s first round TKO of Brian Maxwell, Mike Breeden’s knockout of Keith Speed, and Robinson Perez’s split decision win over Zac Pauga. The prelims added even more finishes, cementing DBX’s reputation for relentless action and heavy hands. With every fight ending in chaos, DBX1 proved that Dirty Boxing was here to stay.

DBX2

DBX2 built on the foundation of the first event and continued to raise the bar for violence and excitement. Jairzinho Rozenstruik headlined the card, defeating Victor Cardoso by emphatic first round knockout in another heavyweight showcase of power. Alex Caceres vs. Saidyokub Kakhramonov delivered a technical war filled with spinning attacks and creative striking, while Miloš Janičić vs. Guilherme Bastos turned into a back and forth slugfest that ended in dramatic fashion. DBX2 delivered one of the most complete nights of action yet, showing that every card under the Dirty Boxing banner guarantees highlight reel finishes and nonstop pressure.

DBX3

DBX3, held on August 29, 2025, in Miami, marked a major milestone for the promotion. The main event saw Jairzinho Rozenstruik return to capture the inaugural DBX Heavyweight Championship with a first round knockout of Rakim Cleveland. The co main event produced another instant classic when James Cannon stunned Hector Lombard with a 19 second KO. The undercard was loaded with violence as Bryan Battle scored a first round TKO over Derik de Freitas, Jessica Rose Clark won a hard fought decision over Claudia Zamora, and Sergei Martynov edged out Phil Hawes. The prelims saw quick finishes from Alex Caceres, Landon Quinones, Tyson Nam, and others. DBX3 delivered knockout after knockout and solidified Dirty Boxing’s status as the most action packed show in combat sports.

DBX4 (Upcoming)

The next evolution arrives with DBX4, scheduled for October 30, 2025, in Nashville, Tennessee, at The Pinnacle. The main event will feature Olympic gold medalist and WWE star Gable Steveson making his professional boxing debut against Billy Swanson. The event will also include an exclusive Jon Jones fan experience, the first of its kind for the league, allowing select attendees to meet the UFC legend and DBX co owner. With more matchups to be announced and momentum at an all time high, DBX4 is expected to be the league’s biggest and most electric event yet.

Conclusion

From a private pilot to arena scale productions, Dirty Boxing has evolved into one of the most thrilling combat leagues in the world. Its small ring, light gloves, and aggressive hybrid rules create relentless action with nearly every fight ending in a knockout or highlight moment. As the league expands globally, Dirty Boxing continues to redefine what fans expect from fight sports: fast, raw, and unforgettable.
