Bare Knuckle boxing isn’t a street fight. It’s one of the oldest organized sports around. It’s strategic. It’s fast paced. It’s skillful. And it’s making a comeback. On June 2nd 2018 Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship will hold what they’re billing as the first legal, sanctioned and regulated fight since 1889. To once again reach the
pinnacle of combat sports in America Bare Knuckle Boxing will have to overcome a stigma of brutality and years of being forced underground.
