Super Boxing League and Amir Khan host top cryptocurrency traders RookieXBT vs. loomdart who will step out from behind their avatars for the first time to fight for the world’s first WBC Crypto Belt

Co-main is the Middle East Heavyweight Title Fight Hemi “The Heat” Ahio vs. the Dubai KO king, Mohammed Ali; The NFT auction at the event on October 16th will benefit the Amir Khan Foundation’s humanitarian work

Dubai, UAE (October 12, 2021): Super Boxing League (SBL) presents the Amir Khan Crypto Fight Night on October 16th, 2021 at La Perle DBX in Dubai. The first of its kind event, supported by the World Boxing Council (WBC) and Savy Capital, will showcase the UAE as a future hub of Blockchain while bringing the growing crypto and boxing communities together for epic showdowns. An NFT auction will cap off the night, benefiting the Amir Khan Foundation’s humanitarian work. The entire night streams only on FITE: Order now.

“Get ready and be prepared to witness high adrenaline action unlike anything you’ve seen before!” said Amir Khan, SBL Chairman.

In the Main Event, RookieXBT will fight loomdart, both cult hero crypto traders. Canadian RookieXBT is one of the youngest traders to have gained influence, and is known for his fearlessness, having won and lost fortunes by the age of 15. Loomdart, on the other hand, is one of the most experienced, and respected voices in Crypto. The winner will walk away with the first ever WBC Crypto Belt.

In the Co-Main, New Zealand big-hitter Hemi “The Heat” Ahio (17-0-0, 12 KO’s) will face Dubai KO king Mohammed Ali (17-2-1, 17 KO’s) for the vacant WBC Middle East Heavyweight Title.

More Crypto celebrities fighting include Profit Maximalist podcast host Luke Martin vs. trader Barney the Boi; entrepreneur Raghav “Reggie” Jerath vs. Foz, the co-founder of Gath3r Network; and leading British trader Adam “Cass” Craigmile vs. Ahmed, of the U.S. The undercard also features the debuts of two hot prospects, both with ties to Amir Khan: the UK’s ABA Youth Champion Abdul Khan, who is Amir’s cousin, and Tal Singh, the England Boxing National Champion, who Amir manages. (The card is subject to change).

RookieXBT said, “I’m happy to be participating in an event that brings the crypto family together in a way that’s never been done before. It’s extremely humbling. I’m looking forward to this event being a success and hopefully something that happens annually.”

Loomdart said, “There’s something beautiful about being able to say that getting involved in crypto has led to me fighting some dude I’ve never met before. I can’t wait for these to be regular events and let people get revenge for getting dumped on!”

SBL is the first promoter to leap headlong in the crypto space and states that is eager to contribute to UAE’s vision for the future, and attracting more blockchain activity in the region.

Amir Khan’s Crypto Fight Night can be watched only on FITE, October 16th, 2021 at 6 PM GST/ 3 PM BST / 10 AM EST. Order now.
