Dubai, Dec. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- - Crypto Fight Night (CFN) delivered another knockout punch of an evening on December 6, 2024, as boxing enthusiasts and blockchain pioneers gathered at the iconic World Trade Centre for an unforgettable spectacle.

The main event of the night between Ben Armstrong, better known as BitBoy (@BenArmstrongsX), and Ansem (@blknoiz06) certainly lived up to the hype, going the full distance to conclude in a dramatic draw.
