Ladd’s experience across several of combat sports’ top promotions also includes bouts against high-level opponents such as Kayla Harrison, Germaine de Randamie and Raquel Pennington. In 17 professional fights, Ladd has compiled a 12-5 record and will look to add another victory at BKB 58 when she faces Bianca Daimoni in the final event of the “Summer of BKB” series.
Daimoni is a BKB veteran, having made her debut at BYB 36 in early 2025 with a split-decision victory over Ashley Brace. However, she dropped her most recent appearance, losing a unanimous decision to Jamie Driver at BKB 50.
The addition of Ladd continues the growth of BKB’s roster, which features more than 200 fighters from 30 countries. In a statement released by BKB, Ladd said the promotion “gives me the chance to compete with everything on the line, no gloves, no hiding, and I’m ready to show everyone what I can do.”
BKB 58 will take place at the James L. Knight Center in Miami. The event is headlined by BKB heavyweight champion Gustavo Trujillo, who will defend his title against Mark O’Neil. It will also feature the promotional debut of Olympic gold medalist Yuriorkis Gamboa, who faces Yesner Talavera.
