Michael Bazley vs Ryan Williams - State Heavyweight Championship Thunderdome 54 will be headlined by “Big Bad” Michael Bayzley taking on veteran Ryan “The Pilgrim” Williams for the Western Australian Heavyweight Championship. The fight was originally set to take place in November 2025 but after a horrific hand injury which William’s hand was crushed in his FIFO (Fly in Fly out) job the fight was put on hold.

I'm excited for this fight because I know its gonna be a war. Both men have vowed to leave it all in the ring for this title Owen Corrigan rematches Mad Dog Micah Rivetti - ANBF Australasian Light Heavyweight Championship Ireland’s Owen Corrigan has been on an impressive run since turning professional in November 2024.

Joel “Lethal” Lewis takes on Weifang Li Joel is always in an exciting fight and his Chinese opponent is looking to test Joel and upset the applecart. One thing with the Chinese fellas is you can never write them off. Joel took some time off but he is now back at the Dragon Fire Boxing gym and putting in the hard work to perfect his craft. He has the tools and with the right discipline he can go very far this kid.
