Bare Knuckle FC
When Bare Knuckle Fighting Championships first launched in 2018, the newly formed promotion was already battling against the perception that their version of combat sports was far too brutal even when compared to MMA or boxing.
Of course, BKFC president David Feldman had a much different ideal about the bare-knuckle fighting but he also understood that it was going to be an uphill battle against the court of public opinion.
Nearly three years later as BKFC embarks on their final card of 2020 the 15th “numbered” event in the promotion’s history Feldman now has statistics to back up his initial claims that bare-knuckle fights were no more dangerous to an athlete’s health than participating in other combat sports.
