Rolando Dy — son of the legendary Filipino boxing champion Rolando “The Bad Boy from Dadiangas” Navarrete — is officially carving out his own violent legacy under the bright lights of bare-knuckle boxing.
In his most recent outing, Dy solidified his status as a pound-for-pound elite by scoring an emphatic, second-round TKO victory over former boxing world champion Paulie Malignaggi.
The dominant performance marked a successful defense of his BKB World Super Welterweight Championship and sent a clear message to the rest of the division: Dy is the undisputed king.
“I get my power straight from my father,” Dy once said, crediting the devastating punching power that has become his signature.
With a ruthless fighting style perfectly suited for the bare-knuckle arena, Dy has quickly built an impressive resume.
- Total Record: 6-1
- Knockout Ratio: 5 KOs in 6 victories
- Current Status: BKB World Super Welterweight Champion
At 6-1 with five devastating finishes, Dy has proven that his transition to bare-knuckle fighting wasn’t just a career pivot — it was his calling. Carrying the legendary Navarrete bloodline and a pair of dynamite fists, the future looks incredibly bright for the reigning champion. The super welterweight division has been warned.
