LOS ANGELES (April 1, 2024) - Thursday is fight night on AXS TV, as the Network partners with trailblazing bare knuckle promotion Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) for a new series debuting Thursday, April 4 at 11 p.m. ET.

The Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship series presents 13 hour-long episodes, putting the spotlight on all the best moments and hard-hitting action from past and present seasons of BKFC. The series debuts on April 4 with a look at the top matches from BKFC 38, featuring Dat Nguyen vs Daniel Straus, and Jake Bostwick vs Isaac Doolittle. The upcoming season also includes fights from current titleholders such as Cruiserweight and Light Heavyweight Champion Lorenzo Hunt, Middleweight Champion David Mundell, Welterweight Champion Luis Palomino, Featherweight Champion Kai Stewart, Flyweight Champion John Dodson, Women's Flyweight Champion Christine Ferea, and Women's Strawweight Champion Britain Hart, as well as top-ranked talent such as Mike Perry, Jake Lindsey, Reggie Barnett Jr., Jared Warren, Houston Alexander, Taylor Starling, Bec Rawlings, and many more.
"We're very excited to partner with AXS TV on this unique opportunity for our promotion," said David Feldman, Founder and President of BKFC. "AXS TV has a long history of broadcasting true cutting-edge content. They share our vision and we expect this new series to elevate our promotion and brand as we continue our rapid ascent in the sports landscape."
Originally founded in 2018, Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship made history when it became the first promotion to hold a legal, sanctioned, and regulated bare knuckle event in the United States since 1889. Under the guidance of President - and former professional boxer - David Feldman, BKFC is committed to upholding the strong legacy of bare knuckle fighting, while implementing its own dynamic rule set designed to promote the safety of its fighters. Only fighters with an established track record in boxing, MMA, kickboxing, or Muay Thai are allowed to step into the patented Squared Circle, and judges and referees must have extensive professional combat sports experience, as well. Additionally, BKFC prohibits competitors from wrapping their hands within an inch of the knuckle, making the promotion the purest form of bare knuckle boxing in the combat sports arena today.
