Saturday, September 26, 2026 10:22 pm UTC Alan Dawson Romero’s mouth is wide open in the fifth, breathing hard. He licks Till’s cheek in the clinch. These guys are doing weird things to each other outside of the knuckles! Massive left hand from Till! Now the fight should be Till’s due to the Cuban’s double hooks. And then he mixes it up with uppercuts. Till is bleeding badly from the cut Romero opened in the third round and the referee calls for a break. 10:16 pm UTC Alan Dawson Flurry of quality from Till in the third. There’s not much to the fight and Romero is in it, but Till is slightly on top. He’s cautious but committed to the openings he finds and Till sinks under the punch. Professional, if not spectacular, stuff from Till. But Romero unloads right at the bell and Till is bleeding. at 10:12 pm UTC Alan Dawson Till starts to open up. He’s really playing with his southpaw advantage instead of committing to the jab. Romero lands his left hand! This doesn’t say much though, until he makes a better example of it now from Till! And again from Till! BKFC could be an extraordinary combination. He and Romero spend the first 30 seconds feeling each other out as they look to find range. The referee separates them and we get to feel each other again. Round 1: 10-9 – Until Saturday, September 26, 2026 10:05 pm UTC Alan Dawson Five rounds Company face on the line. Manchester. This has been such a good announcement for BKFC. They need to keep coming back to Britain.

Saturday, September 26, 2026 09:53 pm UTCAlan Dawson Here. Come on. A split decision?! 2026 09:50 PM UTCAlan DawsonNothing to do in the first 30 seconds, but Cullen then turns Mundell around after catching him with the three-punch combo. He throws a big left hand to his face! That’s huge! Mundell slips, he’s on the floor, but the referee signals him to continue losing his title at this rate! with a left hand and then hits his abdomen as he finishes. Mundell has to hit something big!!! This is Cullen’s fight to lose! drop. The judges scored a tie, just as we did. So we have another round! It’s a winner-takes-all moment! it’s about the inner work and pressing it against the ropes. This final round will come down to who states their game plan more often than the other! Right now it’s Cullen! He’s throwing HUGE hooks! This is some crisp Cullen boxing! You need to win both rounds. for the draw, on Uncrowned’s card, and a knockdown to win. You have to box perfect. You’ve started well enough here. Swelling under Mundell’s eye. The key has been throwing three-punch flurries. Something he wasn’t doing enough of in the opening rounds. Mundell presses him against the ropes but the ref separates them. Cullen lands! It’s ruled a slip. Cullen has clear momentum here and is cruising for another round in the books here. Is the Return?!? Great right hand from Mundell.

Round 3: 29-27 – MundellSat, September 26. 2026 09:36 PM UTC Alan DawsonMundell comes in and throws shots to both sides of the head. This is where Mundell does a great job, pressing him against the ropes and Cullen lands with a left hook. Brilliant strategic fight from the champion so far! He buckles Mundell’s legs and he holds on. This is an edge-of-the-seat chess match compared to the fights we’ve seen all night. Big overhand left AGAIN from Mundell! Cullen, the challenger, and Mundell, the champion, since Cullen has extraordinary height over the middleweight king, Mundell seeks to negate that by pressuring Cullen and cornering him on the inside, to avoid the main jab. And he hits Mundell with two when he hits the one-two! THAT is the shot I should be shooting more! Let’s see more jab shots. There isn’t much, but I prefer Mundell. Round 1: 10-9 – MundellSat, 26 Sep 2026 09:29 pm UTC Alan Dawson…and redneck David Mundell makes his walk! If Jack Cullen, the local fighter, achieves victory here, he could be one of the. The most impressive results of the year. Mundell has been dominating the pound-for-pound rankings bare-knuckle for years. It’s time for five rounds for the BKFC Middleweight Championship!
