Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport XII just got hit with a major shake-up hours before the event. In an announcement on Twitter, Josh Barnett revealed that Akira has been pulled from his highly anticipated match against Charlie Dempsey due to injury.
Barnett broke the news with a tweet, writing, “BREAKING NEWS: Due to an injury, AKIRA will not be taking on Charlie Dempsey tonight at Bloodsport XII… But a replacement has been found and a match will be had.”
Fans are now buzzing with speculation about who will step into the no-ropes ring to face Dempsey, the technically gifted son of wrestling legend William Regal. With Bloodsport’s reputation for intense, MMA-inspired bouts, whoever takes Akira’s spot will have big shoes to fill.
While this last-minute adjustment shakes up the card, the rest of the lineup promises to deliver the brutal, technical action that has become Bloodsport’s signature. The night’s main event will see Josh Barnett himself squaring off against MVP, while Barnett also pulls double duty in a match against Speedball Mike Bailey.
Other bouts include hard-hitting matches like Masha Slamovich vs. Lei Ying Lee, Marina Shafir vs. Jody Threat, and a clash of former tag partners Dominic Garrini vs. Kevin Ku. But with this sudden change, all eyes are now on Dempsey’s new opponent.
Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport XII airs live on Triller TV+ tonight at 8 PM ET. Don’t miss out on this action-packed event, complete with its unexpected twists and turns.
