Gorilla Bare Knuckle Returns At The End Of November After What Its Promoters Call One Of 2026's Most Exciting Events

GORILLA PROMOTIONS. Gorilla Bare Knuckle will return at the end of November, and the promotion is promising a repeat of the chaos that marked its last show. Gorilla Promotions calls that event one of the most exciting combat sports nights of 2026 and says this one will deliver the same from the first bout to the last.

The footage released with the announcement shows why the promotion is confident. Purple Gorilla lighting hangs over a ringside crowd, the ring is wrapped in the company's branding, and a fight graphic on screen reads Dugdale against Dawson. In the video, a fighter in pink and gold shorts, hands wrapped, stands tall in the ring while the referee moves across behind him. The only words on the audio are the opening call of "Let's go."

Gorilla has not yet put out a venue, a full date or a card in the announcement. What it has given fans is a promise and a month to wait. Bare knuckle events that draw this kind of reaction tend to sell on reputation, and Gorilla is leaning hard on the one it built last time.
