Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) is set to host two public media events in the lead-up to BKFC-75, a night of world championship bare-knuckle fighting at Tingley Coliseum in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The event will feature reigning BKFC Middleweight World Champion David 'The Redneck' Mundell defending his title against local favorite Donald Sanchez.
On Wednesday, June 4, at 5:00 p.m. MDT, Mundell and Sanchez will open their final training sessions to the media and public at Jackson Wink MMA Academy in Albuquerque. Other fighters participating include cruiserweight Murat Klimetov, bantamweight Derek Perez, flyweight Zay Garcia, and light heavyweight Will Albrecht. Media interviews will follow the training sessions.
The ceremonial weigh-in and final face-offs are scheduled for Thursday, June 5, at 6:00 p.m. MDT at Tingley Coliseum. Tickets for BKFC-75 can be purchased on the BKFC website. The event will also be broadcast globally on The BKFC App.
BKFC President David Feldman emphasizes that the organization is "dedicated to preserving the historical legacy of bare knuckle fighting" while ensuring fighter safety through a specific rule set. BKFC fights take place in a circular four-rope ring designed for fast-paced bouts and adhere to rules requiring fighters to start each round face-to-face.
Fighters must be established professionals in boxing, MMA, kickboxing, or Muay Thai to compete in BKFC events. Unlike other organizations claiming to be "bare knuckle," BKFC does not allow hand wraps within one inch of the knuckle.
