The Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) is set to make an electrifying debut at the Sturgis Buffalo Chip on August 3, 2024. This event, known as BKFC-63, promises to be a highlight of the 84th Annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, a renowned gathering that combines the thrill of motorcycling with top-tier entertainment. The main event features a highly anticipated Women's Strawweight World Title fight between defending champion Britain Hart and challenger Taylor "Killa Bee" Starling; both fighters bring a wealth of experience and fierce rivalry to the ring, making this a must-see match. Hart, known for her warrior spirit and impressive track record, including victories over notable combat sports stars like Paige VanZant, is ready to defend her title for the third time. Starling, equally formidable and fresh off a victory against Jenny Savage, enters the fight with a strong win record and a determination to claim the championship belt.

Partnership with Grunt Style

This event is made even more special with the partnership between BKFC and Grunt Style, a patriotic apparel brand. Grunt Style is known for its support of veterans and first responders, aligning perfectly with the ethos of the Sturgis Buffalo Chip and the broader Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. Tim Jensen, co-owner of Grunt Style, has expressed his excitement about this collaboration, highlighting the synergy between the brands and the unique experience this partnership will bring to fans. The creative minds behind the Grunt Style brand put the pieces in place to make this historic event happen.

BKFC and Its Unique Appeal

BKFC stands out in the combat sports world for its adherence to the true essence of bare-knuckle fighting. Unlike other promotions that allow extensive hand wrapping, and padding, BKFC fighters compete with minimal hand protection, staying true to the sport's legendary roots. This approach not only preserves the sport's authenticity but also ensures thrilling, fast-paced bouts that keep fans on the edge of their seats. The organization’s innovative 16-foot squared circle ring design further enhances the spectator experience by encouraging constant action and engagement.

The Sturgis Buffalo Chip

The Sturgis Buffalo Chip, often referred to as "The Best Party Anywhere," has been a cornerstone of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally since 1981. Known for hosting world-class music and motorcycle events, the venue draws visitors and enthusiasts from across the globe. This year's rally, running from August 2-11, 2024, features a packed schedule of concerts, bike shows, charity rides, and now, the high-octane excitement of BKFC-63. This venue not only offers entertainment but also fosters a sense of community among attendees, making it a perfect location for an event like BKFC.

BKFC-63 at the Sturgis Buffalo Chip is set to be a landmark event, combining the raw excitement of bare-knuckle fighting with the vibrant atmosphere of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. With headline fights like Britain Hart vs. Taylor Starling and the support of Grunt Style, this event promises to deliver unforgettable moments for combat sports fans and motorcycle enthusiasts alike.
