Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport XIII Results – Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport XIII took place on April 17th at the Pearl Theater in Las Vegas, Nevada, airing live on Triller TV+. The annual GCW-hosted shoot-style event once again delivered a hard-hitting card filled with knockouts, submissions, and gritty finishes across ten intense matches.
The evening was headlined by a major upset as Gabe Kidd defeated the event’s namesake, Josh Barnett, via TKO at 9:33. This marked a significant victory for Kidd, who continues to build momentum in the shoot-wrestling circuit.
In one of the night’s most technical bouts, Zack Sabre Jr. and Jonathan Gresham fought to a grueling 15-minute draw before entering overtime. Just over two minutes into the OT period, ZSJ landed a clean right hand and a follow-up penalty kick that knocked Gresham out, scoring the KO victory and improving to 1-0 at Bloodsport.
