Dubai’s Boxing Scene Isn’t Slowing Down, It’s Leveling Up
At a time when many events are hitting pause, BATL Promotions is doing the exact opposite — stepping forward with two back-to-back fight nights that are set to bring serious energy to Dubai’s boxing scene.
Night One: “Night of Champions” — Titles, Pressure & Big Moments
The first night is all about legacy.
Taking place at The Pavilion, Emirates Golf Club, Night of Champions is built for boxing purists — a high-stakes evening where every fight actually means something.
We’re talking:
– Six titles on the line
– Championship-level matchups
– Fighters with everything to prove
Headlining the night is Hovhannes Bachkov vs Luis Arcon for the WBA Intercontinental Title, alongside a stacked card featuring multiple title fights across WBA, UBO and regional belts.
This is where Dubai-based fighters step into the spotlight — not just to compete, but to prove they belong on the global stage.

Night Two: “Fight City” — Where Future Stars Are Made
If Night One is about champions, Night Two is about what’s coming next.
Fight City brings a completely different energy — raw, fast-paced and focused on the next generation of fighters.
This is where reputations are built.
Keep an eye on:
– Abdullah Chandio — representing the rise of boxing in Pakistan
– Asaad Touqan — already pulling over 12 million monthly views globally
– Neel Depala — a British-Indian prospect stepping up as he targets youth titles
These are the names you’ll be hearing a lot more about soon.
More Than Just Fights — It’s a Movement
BATL Promotions isn’t just putting on events — it’s building something bigger.
From grassroots beginnings to an expanding global footprint, the promotion has been focused on:
- Giving fighters a real platform
- Building a regional boxing ecosystem
- Creating events that actually matter
And this double-header is a clear reflection of that.
As founder Jamie Cormack puts it, this is about showing up when it counts — for the fighters, the fans and the wider community.
