What Is Bare Knuckle Fighting?
Born in Philadelphia, Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) is the first organization to legally host bare knuckle fight boxing events in the United States since 1889. It was started by former professional boxer, David Feldman. The BKFC is committed to maintaining the integrity and rich legacy of bare-knuckle fighting, ensuring raw and real fights, while prioritizing fighter safety with a specific rule set. BKFC matches take place in a unique four-rope ring, designed intentionally for fast-paced bouts of pure skill and thrill. The design of this innovative structure, known as the ‘Square Circle’, is directly inspired by the Broughton Rules, which are the first set of rules that were used in the sport of boxing. They were famously written and standardized by English boxing champion Jack Broughton in 1743. With this style of ring, the rules dictate that the fighters begin each round face to face, mere inches apart in a practice called ‘Toe the Line’.
To be able to compete in the BKFC, fighters must be reputable professionals in either boxing, mixed martial arts (MMA), kickboxing, or Muay Thai. To critique and supervise the game, even judges and referees are required to have extensive experience in professional combat sports. In addition to this, any BKFC boxing event is regulated by an Athletic Commission, meaning that unlike other fighting organizations, KFC keep true to their word that fighters are not allowed to wrap their hands with any wrap, tape or gauze within one inch of the knuckle, making a BKFC boxing event the most genuine form of bare-knuckle fighting.
