MIAMI, May 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Dirty Boxing Championship (DBX), combat sports' most disruptive new promotion, returns to Miami on Saturday, June 14th for DBX 2 — a night of raw intensity, elite-level striking and a rule set engineered for nonstop action.

Co-founded by UFC legend and reigning Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones and fan-favorite brawler Mike Perry, DBX strips fighting down to its core rewarding aggression, precision, and heart.
"Dirty Boxing is exactly what it sounds like. Real fights, real pressure, and no place to hide," said co-owner Mike Perry. "We built this for fighters who want to throw hands and fans who want to see action. DBX 2 is gonna be violent, it's gonna be wild, and it's gonna be a damn good time."
DBX's first live-audience event, DBX 1, debuted in March and drew over 50,000 concurrent streams on the DBX YouTube Channel, over 10.5 million streams, $65,000.00 in fighter bonuses via Strike token and a sold out venue which included celebrity guests Adin Ross, Agent 00 and Patrick Bet-David, among others.
"Dirty Boxing Championship isn't just a promotion, it's a cultural shift," said Jon Jones, DBX co-owner. "We're taking everything we've learned from decades of combat sports and creating something more authentic, more dynamic, and more relevant to the next generation. DBX 2 is where that shift becomes undeniable."

Texas A&M men's basketball lands huge commitment from three-point deadeye Spanish guard
The Texas A&M men's basketball program landed a commitment from one of the most decorated three-point shooters from overseas on Friday morning. First-year head coach Buck McMillan continued an impressive offseason with the recruitment of Bilbao Basket's Rubén Domínguez. The Spanish guard helped lead his team to the FIBA Europe Cup title with his deadeye shooting from three-point range. Advertisement Here is the official announcement from Jon Chepkevich, who is the director of scouting for Draft Express: Domínguez has been a superstar for his home country and the Bilbao Basket organization for years now, as the 6'6" guard aided Spain to a silver medal at the 2018 FIBA U16 European Championship and helped push Bilbao Basket over the hump to secure the 2025 FIBA Championship title. In his career playing for Spain, he has accumulated 153 games played, 5.7 points per game, 1.4 rebounds per contest and a .362 field goal percentage. Domínguez also received Spanish ACB Week 13 Player of the Week honors in 2025. Advertisement The addition of the Spanish guard adds to an already impressive recruiting class put together by McMillan and the Texas A&M coaching staff. He joins names such as Creighton guard Pop Isaacs and Indiana forward Mackenzie Mgbako, both signed with the Aggies during the offseason. As time inches closer to the Aggies hitting the hardwood in Reed Arena this season, McMillan's roster continues to glimmer with promise at all positions, but especially at guard.
