David Feldman, president of Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC), the world’s leading bare-knuckle fighting league, shared his dream signings among current boxers.
"The best would be Conor [McGregor], Tyson Fury, and Anthony Joshua. Anthony Joshua gave an interview saying his first favorite sport is boxing, and his second is bare-knuckle fighting. He said that publicly.
I don’t think it’s far-fetched to see some of the greatest boxers or MMA fighters in history taking off their gloves to fight in BKFC. I really don’t think it’s far-fetched.
I’m not naming specific names, but when Conor McGregor says, 'I’m a fighter-manager. I’ll fight bare-knuckle,' it’s just a matter of time before he, Fury, Joshua... Who knows?
I’m not saying they will do it, and I’m not saying they won’t. But I believe there’s a good chance that any combat sports athlete could join BKFC. That’s my belief," Feldman stated.
Conor McGregor is a co-owner of Bare Knuckle. Tyson Fury’s grandfathers were recognized among the British Gypsy community as bare-knuckle fighters.
