Dirty Boxing’s second official event, DBX2, brought an electric mix of underground energy and celebrity firepower to Miami. The new bare-knuckle league — brainchild of MMA legends Jon Jones and Mike Perry — delivered a night filled with viral moments and rising stars.
The venue was buzzing with big names: Jon Jones, Yoel Romero, Tito Ortiz, Andre Berto, and a wave of influencers like Jack Doherty, Robert Wilmote, the Nelk Boys, and the Island Boys.
The breakout moment came when Rob “Wolf” Perez walked out to a live performance of his own walkout anthem — “Dirty Boxing Anthem” by independent artist Jake Canney — and then took out UFC veteran Alex Nicholson with a first-round TKO after Nicholson suffered a knee injury mid-fight.
After his win, Perez grabbed the mic and declared, “I belong to Dirty Boxing,” then circled back to the song’s lyrics, shouting “Talk shit, get hit!”, solidifying the full-circle moment. Commentator Jason Anik confirmed that Perez will now headline DBX3 in a title fight against Jairzinho Rozenstruik, with the league’s first championship on the line.
And in classic Wolf fashion, he didn’t stop there — walking over to Jon Jones cageside to call him out directly.
