The gloves are coming off once again for Aspen Ladd.
Ladd, a former UFC and PFL fighter, will give it a second go in bareknuckle boxing when she makes her BKB debut. The promotion on Tuesday announced that Ladd is set to meet Bianca Daimoni at BKB 58 on Aug. 29 from James L. Knight Center in Miami.

Ladd, 31, first tried her hand at bareknuckle in BKFC last November when she knocked out Shyanna Bintliff in the first round at BKFC 84.
Ladd’s move to bareknuckle came 15 months after her most recent MMA fight in the PFL, a unanimous decision win over Ekaterina Shakalova at Bellator Champions Series 2 in May 2024.
Ladd spent five years in the UFC and competed seven times in the octagon, going 4-3 during her tenure.
BKB 58 is headlined by undefeated heavyweight champion Gustavo Trujillo putting his title on the line against Mark O’Neil.
