    DeMarcus "Chop Chop" Corley to fight at BKFC 16

    BKFC just tweeted this out:


    He'll be fighting Reggie Barnett Jr.

    Barnett's record:
    5-1-0-0 in pro bare knuckle
    6-2-0-0 in pro boxing
    3-4-0-0 in pro MMA

    Corley:
    51-33-1-0

    Corley is 46 and hasn't been good in a long while, but he should still have enough in the tank for a journeyman like Barnett.

    Corley is most famous for his WBO super lightweight title reign from 2001-2003 and his notable fights with Floyd Mayweather, Zab Judah, Randall Bailey, and Miguel Cotto. After that he became a gatekeeper, facing guys like Lucas Matthysse, Devon Alexander, Marcos Maidana, Ruslan Provodnikov, Thomas Dulorme, and Viktor Postol on their way up the ladder.

    He was most recently stopped by undefeated prospect Custio Clayton in 2019.

    I ain't seen Chop Chop fight in a minute & obviously he's old as fook, but he gots hands so this should be a fun one.

          Could always be worse. I read that Danny Williams got KO’d by a former welterweight in his last fight. Can’t believe some of these guys are still going

            Boxing is one of the saddest sports imo. Especially for Black fighters. For every Floyd/SRL, there's dozens of Chop Chops in the boxing world.

              He's been stopped 8 times in 85 fights. Pretty durable guy all things considered.

                Boxing is one of the saddest sports imo. Especially for Black fighters. For every Floyd/SRL, there's at least a couple hundreds of Chop Chops. And he was a world titleist too.

                  Well he's also lost a lot of decision fights. He may be durable but the head isn't meant to be taking that type of punishment, especially over two decades. Once he retires, that CTE is gonna hit something crazy for him.

                    Reggie Barnett is a DANGEROUS opponent for this one.
