PHILADELPHIA – Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship returns to the historic home of bareknuckle fighting – London, England – with BKFC 37 on Saturday, March 4 at the Crystal Palace National Sports Centre.
BKFC 37 is headlined by the can’t miss welterweight clash between longtime division rivals, Connor “Brum Town Bomber” Tierney (6-1, 3 KOs) and “Gypsy” Jake Lindsey (3-0, 3 KOs) of Manhattan, Kansas.
Tickets for BKFC 37 are now on sale starting at £54.88 and can be purchased at BKFC.com. BKFC 37 will also be broadcast internationally on the new BKFC app and is sponsored by Only Fans, Crescent Tools, LIONS NOT SHEEP, Nerd Focus Energy Drink, Global Fight Token, and Knockout Gummies.
“The first BKFC event in London last August headlined by Mike Perry‘s extraordinary six-round win over Michael Page was the U.K.’s best night of combat sports in 2022,” said David Feldman, president of BKFC. “Connor Tierney versus Jake Lindsey is an explosive fight in our very deep welterweight division and a main event anywhere in the world.
“We’re putting together a sensational undercard which we will announce shortly but wanted to announce this headline clash and distribute the ticket information to our massive U.K. fan base.”
The 28-year-old Tierney burst onto the BKFC scene against Jeremiah Riggs on March 12, 2022 with a fifth-round stoppage at “BKFC Fight Night: New York 2.” Fighting in one of the premier BKFC clashes of the year, Tierney would bravely stop the valiant Riggs at the end of an outstanding war which featured memorable two-way action throughout. Tierney followed up with a dominant unanimous decision against veteran Joe Elmore on the stellar undercard of the Perry vs. Page event at Wembley Arena.
The hard-hitting Lindsey returns to the squared circle following a second-round stoppage of Brandon Girtz on October 15, 2022 at BKFC 31. His two previous BKFC bouts also ended in stoppages with knockout victories over Derrick Findley (BKFC 23) and Eric Thompson (“BKFC Fight Night: Wichita”).
Further details on this outstanding event will be announced shortly.
