BATL OF NATIONS ANNOUNCED FOR DUBAI
World-Ranked Stars. WBA Continental Titles. Eight Nations. One Global Stage.
Meydan Racecourse | 4 April 2026
Dubai is about to host a fight night unlike anything it has seen before.
On 4 April 2026, under the lights of Meydan Racecourse, BATL of Nations will bring together
world-ranked contenders, national representatives and emerging talent from across the globe
for a night built on consequence.
Two WBA Continental title fights.
An eight-nation, one-night elimination tournament.
A global broadcast into more than 120 million homes.
But BATL of Nations is more than a fight card.
It is a statement about how boxing can unite.
A GLOBAL STAGE. NOT A CLOSED PROMOTION.
BATL of Nations has been created with one clear purpose: to unite fighters from all over the
world on a single international stage.
Unlike traditional boxing promotions that operate around exclusive long-term contracts and
closed rosters, BATL of Nations is an event platform.
It is open.
It is collaborative.
It is designed to work with the international boxing community — not compete against it.
Fighters are not tied down beyond the event.
They are not restricted by promotional boundaries.
They are not required to leave their existing teams or promoters.
BATL of Nations welcomes athletes from every country, every gym, every background and every
promotion.
This event exists to create opportunity — not ownership.
Boxing is inherently global. Rankings cross borders. Titles move continents. Talent emerges
everywhere.
BATL of Nations reflects
that reality.
Much like Well B Festival — whose ethos revolves around the hive and the power of community
— BATL of Nations celebrates the collective strength of the global boxing ecosystem. Nations,
styles, cultures and ambitions converge under one roof.
This is not about building a closed stable.
It is about building a moment.
WORLD RANKINGS ON THE LINE
The main event sees Hovhannes Bachkov, currently ranked in the world’s top five by the WBA,
step into the ring to face dangerous international contender Rubén Néstor Muñoz for the WBA
Continental Title.
Bachkov, an Olympic bronze medallist with elite championship pedigree, arrives in Dubai with
clear intent: move one step closer to full world title contention. The Continental belt is widely
recognised as a gateway to the global championship picture — and in a division stacked with
talent, every ranking shift matters.
Across the ring, Muñoz brings relentless pressure and the kind of aggression capable of
disrupting even the most disciplined operator.
One belt.
One leap toward world contention.
One night that could reshape the rankings.
The co-main event carries equally seismic implications.
Anahit Aroyan, currently ranked number two in the world by the WBA, faces formidable
challenger Alice Mbewe — also for the WBA Intercontinental Title.
Aroyan stands on the brink of world championship positioning. Victory in Dubai solidifies her
claim among the elite. Defeat reshuffles the global landscape.
Mbewe arrives ready to challenge that trajectory.
Two Continental belts.
Two ranking battles.
Two fights with global consequence
A TOURNAMENT BUILT FOR URGENCY
If the title fights were not enough, BATL of Nations introduces a format engineered for drama.
Eight nations. One night. Professional rules.
Quarter-finals. Semi-finals. Final.
Lose once and you are out.
The BATL of Nations Prizefighter Tournament will see fighters represent their countries in a
single-elimination structure under professional boxing rules. There are no rebuilding fights. No
tune-ups. No safety nets.
Every bout advances the bracket. Every round carries urgency. Knockout bonuses guarantee
excitement.
This is boxing engineered for consequence.
But equally important, it is boxing engineered for opportunity.
For emerging fighters and promoters across the world, this tournament offers something rare:
immediate international exposure, global broadcast visibility and career acceleration — without
long-term contractual restriction.
BATL of Nations does not tie fighters down.
It lifts them up.
A CELEBRATION OF THE GLOBAL BOXING COMMUNITY
BATL of Nations has been designed as a gathering point for the sport.
Managers, promoters and sanctioning bodies are invited to collaborate.
Nations are invited to participate.
Fighters are invited to represent their flags.
This event complements the global boxing ecosystem. It does not attempt to replace it.
It exists to:
• Spotlight international talent
• Create genuine, career-defining moments
• Provide access to world-level visibility
• Build bridges across borders
• Celebrate the global fight community
On 4 April 2026, fighters step into the ring not as long-term contractual assets — but as
representatives of their nations, their teams and their journeys.
STAGED INSIDE A MOVEMENT
BATL of Nations will headline Well B Festival, the UAE’s fastest-growing fitness, sport and
wellness movement, transforming Meydan into a full-day, multi-zone experience culminating in
fight night.
From sunrise yoga to sunset showdowns, the day builds toward a singular crescendo.
As daylight fades and festival energy peaks, the arena lights rise.
Dubai becomes the stage.
GLOBAL BROADCAST REACH
The event will be broadcast internationally through AYOZAT, delivering the spectacle from
Meydan to audiences across more than 120 million homes throughout Europe, the Middle East,
Africa and beyond.
With world rankings at stake, WBA Continental titles on the line and national pride woven into
the tournament format, BATL of Nations is positioned to capture global attention from fight fans,
media outlets and industry leaders alike.
A STATEMENT FROM THE FOUNDERS
Jamie Cormack, Co-Founder of BATL, said:
“BATL of Nations represents what boxing should be — open, global and built on opportunity. We
are not creating a closed promotion. We are creating a platform where fighters from anywhere
can step onto a world stage and accelerate their careers.”
Michael Roos, Co-Founder, added:
“This event is about collaboration. It is about working with the international boxing community
to create something special. When fighters walk into that arena, they are carrying their nation
with them. That energy is powerful.”
THE MESSAGE IS CLEAR
On 4 April 2026:
World rankings move.
Belts change hands.
Nations rise and fall.
Careers accelerate — or stall.
And for one night, the global boxing community converges on one stage.
BATL of Nations. Meydan Racecourse. Dubai
