RENO, Νεβάδα. (Ιανουάριος 31, 2022) – Ken Shamrock’s Valor Bare Knuckle (ValorBK) Boxing returns to action April 22, 2022, with “real bare-knuckle fights,” featuring thrilling bouts between professional fighters, often matching mixed-martial-arts fighters versus boxers, at the James L. Knight Center in Miami.

ValorBK, presented by Valor Sports Inc. and Ken Shamrock, showcases all-action, unfettered entertainment by fierce fighters stepping into the Bout Circle. ValorBK brings forth the world’s first true Bare-Knuckle competition, setting the industry standard for both fighters and fans.
Τριφύλλι, universally known in combat sports as “The World’s Most Dangerous Man,” is a living legend and industry pioneer who is responsible for accelerating some of the most successful companies, brands, and movements in the last two decades of combat sports.
Best known for his participation in the Ultimate Fighting Championships (UFC), Pride Fighting Championships, the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), Total Nonstop Wrestling Action, and Pancrase, Shamrock is taking Valor Bare Knuckle to the forefront of contemporary combat sports.

“ValorBK is a lifelong vision realized after decades of global competition at the highest level across various combat sports,” Shamrock said. “With the innovation of the Bout Circle and our unique rulesets, ValorBK will take the industry by storm. No gloves, no ropes, no cages, no dirty boxing, is a concept born in part out of competition and is perfect for the next phase of combat sports.


“‘Stand them up’ was a theme I heard throughout my career. I know what fans want to see and what real fighters want to do. Our first event was the proof. ValorBK will be the platform to disrupt bare-knuckle boxing while also enhancing the great sport of boxing by developing a generation of skilled fighters tilted towards action. We are pleased to announce our return and hope you tune in for more big updates.”


Due to a restructuring and COVID-19 restrictions, ValorBK has been regrouping since its inaugural event, Σεπτέμβριος 20, 2019, στο 4 Bears Casino in Newtown, North Dakota. (ValorBK1 replay available to watch at https://valorbk.com/events/)

UFC Veteran Riggs Takes on Brok Weaver
Σάββατο, Οκτώβριος 20 στο “BKFC 3: The Takeover”
Live from the Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Μισισιπής
& on Pay-Per-View
Riggs Talks BKFC Debut, Bare Knuckle Discipline,
Matchup with Weaver & Περισσότερο

ΦΙΛΑΔΕΛΦΕΙΑ (Οκτώβριος 4, 2018) – A veteran of over 60 professional MMA fights,Joe Riggs will look to score his next knockout as part of Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) όταν παίρνει Brok Weaver Σάββατο, Οκτώβριος 20 at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Mississippi and live on pay-per-view.

 

“BKFC 3: The Takeover” will be broadcast across the United States and Canada, exclusively on pay-per-view through MultiVision Media, Inc., on all major television and streaming distribution outlets for $29.95. The show is headlined by Είμαι “The Hillbilly Hammer” Shewmaker αντιμετωπίζει Arnold “AJ” Adams in the finals of the BKFC heavyweight tournament.

 

 

 

Τα εισιτήρια για “BKFC 3: The Takeover” are available now exclusively at www.bareknuckle.tv ξεκινώντας από $35.

 

 

 

Having fought at the top level of numerous MMA entities, including UFC, Riggs will bring his 47 professional MMA wins into his first legal and sanctioned bare knuckle contest in the U.S. See below for what Riggs had to say about transitioning to this new discipline, what fans can expect to see in the ring and more:

 

Why did you decide to make the move to Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship?

 

 

 

“I’ve been destined to be a champion since I was a little kid. It took me a long time to grow up as both a man and a fighter. But I’ve finally put it all together, and my body is still right and working well. Έτσι, this is the time for me to make the switch to BKFC and hopefully go for a BKFC belt. I really enjoy bare knuckle fighting. I’ve fought in a lot of different disciplines and this is a great fit for me.

 

 

 

It’s also really cool to be a part of the organization that hosted the first legitimate and regulated bare knuckle fights in the U.S. in more than a hundred years. To participate in the revival of this ancient sport is an honor.”

 

Have you watched BKFC fights? If so, what was your impression of it?

 

 

 

“I didn’t get a chance to watch BKFC 1 ή 2 ζω, but I went back and watched Kendall Grove’s fight, as well as Chris Lytle and Joey Beltran. I thought the production quality was great, and the fights themselves were compelling, especially the heavyweights. Those guys were banging away in there.”

 

What about your style or background do you think will translate well into bare knuckle competition?

 

 

 

“I was bred to be a fighter, regardless of the discipline. Bare knuckle fighting just forces me to use my superior striking. I can box really well. It’s something I’ve been doing for many years, so my stand-up game is excellent.”

 

What are some of the challenges of fighting in this new discipline?

 

 

 

“I think the two biggest concerns with bare knuckle are hurting my hands or getting cut easier and we’re obviously working on ways to avoid that.”

 

How does your training camp differ from an actual bare knuckle fight?

 

 

 

“The main thing that I’m focusing on in camp is working to strengthen my core. I also throw certain punches a little differently in training than if I were in a real fight. We’re also trying to be careful with body shots, like punches to the liver. But my conditioning is great and I’m pushing that harder and harder recently.”

 

What have people around you said about bare knuckle fighting making a return and you officially signing on with BKFC?

 

 

 

“For the average person, bare knuckle fighting might seem crazy. But if you step back and think about it, MMA used to seem like a crazy concept too back in the day. This is really just another form of two professional fighters in there competing against each other.”

 

What do you know about Brok Weaver and how do you expect the fight to unfold?

 

 

 

“I watched a few of Weaver’s recent fights. He looks like he throws fast punches and is a tough guy. My bottom line is that I never want to overlook anyone. I’ve made that mistake in the past and paid the price for it. But I definitely don’t think Weaver can beat me. We’re both professional fighters though, and we’ll see what happens on October 20.”

Επίσημη Δήλωση της Ομάδας Gunn σχετικά με τη μεταβίβαση του Kevin "Kimbo Slice" Ferguson

Αφήστε ένα σχόλιο

 

Hackensack, NJ (Ιούνιος 7, 2016) - Ο παγκόσμιος πρωταθλητής πυγμαχίας βαρέων βαρών Bobby Gunn λυπάται πολύ για τον θάνατο του Kevin "Kimbo Slice" Ferguson.

Τα τελευταία αρκετά χρόνια, κυκλοφόρησαν φήμες για αντιστοιχία μεταξύ του Gunn και του θρύλου της μάχης στην αυλή που έγινε επαγγελματίας μαχητής.

Οι δυο τους είχαν συζητήσει ένα ματς και ο Γκαν προκάλεσε προσωπικά τον Κίμπο μετά τη γενναία του νίκη επί του Κεν Σάμροκ τον Ιούνιο 2015. Λόγω όσων ειπώθηκαν δημόσια ο ένας για τον άλλον, Ο Gunn σκέφτηκε ότι μπορεί να ήταν μια έντονη συνάντηση. Απροσδόκητα, ήταν ακριβώς το αντίθετο.

«Πίστευα ότι θα υπήρχε πολλή εχθρότητα μεταξύ μας από τότε που συζητήθηκε ο αγώνας και ήμουν αρκετά ανένδοτος για να τον αντιμετωπίσω,»Είπε ο Γκαν. "Η αλήθεια είναι, και μπορείτε να το δείτε στο βίντεο στο YouTube, ήταν πολύ ωραίος άνθρωπος. Όταν οι κάμερες ήταν κλειστές, καταλήξαμε να συζητάμε για το πώς οι γιοι μας ήταν και ανερχόμενοι μαχητές, τις οικογένειές μας και άλλα πράγματα. Σε αυτό το σημείο, Κέρδισα περισσότερο σεβασμό για αυτόν ως άνθρωπο από ό, τι θα είχα ποτέ αν πολεμούσαμε ».

Την προηγούμενη νύχτα, Ο Gunn ειδοποιήθηκε ότι ο Kimbo εισήχθη στο νοσοκομείο και ήταν σε κακή κατάσταση. Λίγο αργότερα, Πολλά πρακτορεία ανέφεραν ότι πέθανε στις 42. Ως οικογενειάρχης πρώτος και μαχητής δεύτερος, Ο Γκαν ήταν συντετριμμένος.

«Sadταν πολύ λυπηρό να διαβάζω ότι πέρασε, ειδικά σε τόσο μικρή ηλικία και τόσο γρήγορα. Έχει έξι παιδιά και μια αγαπημένη γυναίκα που άφησε πίσω του. Μόλις περάσατε από τον σκληρό μαχητή δρόμου, Ο Κέβιν Φέργκιουσον ήταν ένας πολύ καλός άνθρωπος και όλοι όσοι τον γνώρισαν ένιωθαν το ίδιο. Θα ήθελα να εκφράσω τα συλλυπητήριά μου στους φίλους του, θαυμαστές και κυρίως η οικογένειά του.

Ο Gunn σχεδιάζει επίσης να αποτίσει φόρο τιμής στον Kimbo και την οικογένειά του στο ρινγκ.

Στον επόμενο αγώνα μου, Θα υπερασπιστώ το πρωτάθλημα γυμνού κότσι μου ενάντια στον Σάνον Ριτς. Ο αγώνας έχει προγραμματιστεί να είναι κοντά στη γενέτειρά του, το Μαϊάμι, Η Φλόριντα και θα αφιερώσω την άμυνα στον Kimbo Slice. Θα ήθελα να προσκαλέσω προσωπικά την οικογένειά του να παρευρεθεί στην εκδήλωση. 305 για πάντα."
