It was clear Conor McGregor’s BKFC (Bare Knuckle Boxing Fighting Championship) was taking off with success but this is next level stuff now.
Clearly.
Sure, Lucas Browne of Australia joined the league there recently at heavyweight and will fight soon.
There’s been other notable boxers there and some from MMA as well, but this is next level.
First Big Name World Champion Boxer To Fight In Conor McGregor’s Bareknuckle Boxing League
Former world champion James DeGale is actually coming out of retirement from professional boxing to literally fight in professional bareknuckle boxing, incredibly, it is really happening now.
James DeGale will take on 15-2-0 Australian Pro-Boxer Matt Floyd for his BKFC debut on September 27th 2025 in Manchester, UK.
That is remarkable stuff.
James DeGale of course well known for huge fights with George Groves, Dirrell, Badou Jack and Chris Eubank Jr.
Enough said. BKFC, like professional boxing, is on the rise as well.
