BKFC London Venue Announcement

BKFC London Venue Announcement

Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) is set to make its promotional debut in Europe this summer.

With just the knowledge of who will headline the event prior to this, the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship has now locked in a venue for the London event.

Per the promotion’s Instagram, the BKFC London event will be held at the Ovo Arena in Wembley, England on July 16th, 2022.

Back in March, it was announced that the main event will feature fan-favorite Paige VanZant, who signed with the promotion back in 2021 and has gone 0-2 in the squared circle.

 

So far, BKFC has not announced an opponent for 29-year-old VanZant, and there are no other bout announcements for the event at this time. However, we will keep you updated when they are.

For the promotion itself, this is a huge accomplishment. From holding their first event just four years ago to now holding an event at the Ovo Arena in Wembley, we can expect these next couple of years to be massive for the young promotion as they continue to sign big names, book great venues, and break into more markets. I know we here at MyMMANews are excited for what the future holds for the BKFC and the athletes that bring eyeballs to the sport of bare-knuckle boxing.
