Bloody noses, black eyes and gushing wounds were on full display at The Hangar as naked boxers brawled in the ring on Friday.
Many of the players descended on the West Midlands stadium and cheered loudly as their competitors beat each other to the black.
The fighters were seen pumping up the soundtrack and stage smoke plumes as they headed to the boxing ring inside the West Midlands Auditorium.
Fighting without boxing gloves left the fighters with bloody injuries and swollen eyelids as they swung their fists at fans.
But after a night filled with violence, blood and bruises, even the losers want to get back in the ring.

Kevin Greenwood suffered a severe blow to the face during the match and ended up winning.
BYB Extreme Fighting held their 33rd show in the West Midlands last weekend. It was a performance truly worthy of its name.
Aptly named ‘Wolverhampton Brawl’, the match included 11 fights, with bare-knuckle fighters going head-to-head in ‘Trigon’.
Traditional boxing rings are typically square, but the same rules do not apply in the world of bare knuckle boxing, where the arena is shaped like a triangle.
Horrible sporting events are becoming increasingly common around the world, with competitors bleeding each other far more than in a regular boxing match.
There was no shortage of black eyes at the event as BYB Cruiseweight champion Marko Martinjak scored the fastest knockout in the history of the sport against Bradley Scott.
Scott, also known as The Bear, said on social media a day after the loss: ‘I wish I had passed out last night because I couldn’t feel my eyes, but unfortunately I was fine.’
‘I felt good, but I was upset because I lost. My eyes turned black. I thought I was blind, but my eyes were bleeding.’

After the loss Tyrone said: ‘We are staying fit, staying sharp and we will turn those losses into wins through motivation.
‘But when I watched that fight again and again, it was a good fight. Because I faced good and strong opponents, we learn as we live.
He added, “We came back bigger and stronger.”
‘Don’t take that loss like I did. Because I’m not done yet. Loss is a lesson, to put it that way.’
