Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC), the World’s Fastest Growing Combat Sports Promotion, returns to Hard Rock Live at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood for the ninth time with BKFC-66 Friday, Sept. 13 at 7 p.m.

Tickets are on sale now and start at $55. All seats are reserved. Tickets are available at www.myHRL.com. Doors open a half-hour before showtime. Additional fees may apply.

BKFC-66 is headlined by two spectacular, can’t miss bare-knuckle fights featuring BKFC Bantamweight World Champion Alberto “El Indio” Blas, (5-0), of Cuba, now residing in Miami making the first defense of his title against No. 2 Ranked and Undefeated Challenger “Royal” Ryan Reber, (6-0), of Pinellas Park, Fla. and BKFC Middleweight World Champion David “Redneck” Mundell, (8-1), of Dunedin, Fla. battling combat sports legend Muhammed “King Mo” Lawal, of San Jose, Calif. in a light heavyweight clash.

BKFC is the first promotion allowed to hold a legal, sanctioned and regulated bare knuckle event in the United States since 1889. Based in Philadelphia and headed by president and former professional boxer David Feldman, BKFC is dedicated to preserving the historical legacy of bare-knuckle fighting, while utilizing a specifically created rule set that emphasizes fighter safety. BKFC holds all its bouts in a revolutionary circular four-rope ring, designed to encourage fast-paced and exciting bouts. The patented BKFC “Squared Circle” contains scratch lines, based on the Broughton Rules which governed bare-knuckle fighting in the 19th century, and which requires fighters to “toe the line” start every round face to face, and just inches apart.

In BKFC, only those fighters who are established professionals in boxing, MMA, kickboxing, or Muay Thai are allowed to compete. The referees and judges are required to have extensive professional combat sports experience. All fights are held under the auspices and control of an Athletic Commission. Unlike other fighting organizations and combat sports internationally which claim to be “bare-knuckle,” but require wraps, tape and gauze, BKFC is true to its word as fighters are not allowed to wrap their hands to within 1 inch of the knuckle. This makes BKFC unquestionably the truest form of bare-knuckle fighting. BKFC is dedicated to not just creating the safest, most exciting, and highest-level bare-knuckle fighting organization in the world, it’s also leading the way for a new fully recognized professional combat sport. BKFC is truly the sport of the future, which fully respects its remarkable past.
