Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) Thread

[Eff Pandas]

Never watched a BKFC fight til about a week ago, but getting into it more since the Paulie vs Artem fight is coming up in 10 days.

Figured I'd start a thread & post some of the fights they got on their site & make a place to talk about this league that could be of some interest to Boxing/MMA fans.

For those who aren't aware of the basics here's some info:

So are Paulie and Artem going to fight each other with gloves on like its rumored or is the company going to live up to its name & have them fight bare-knuckled?

BKFC is at the mercy of the state commission with this so its not entirely on them from my understanding...although I suppose they could go to somewhere that they've been to that is more lax & just goes with the wraps like the other fights...but maybe the money isn't at those random places to make this first big fight to idk.

But anyway here's the last thing I heard.

This is the full transcript of the statement the Florida State Boxing Commission's Communications Director provided me when asked about the use of a glove for the up-and-coming bare-knuckle boxing event in Tampa, Florda on June 22nd (BKFC 6). pic.twitter.com/FebLnkGIWX

I saw a potential design several weeks back, but I can't seem to find it now. Supposedly the BKFC people have designed this glove so I'm assuming it'll still be pretty on point with what we've seen in the past. The main issue with the glove to is protect the wrist not the knuckles or hand/fist from my understanding.
