Yes. All the fights were competitive. But, the early prelims and prelims were fantastic.

My wife and I do too. The UFC is the only professional sport we watch actually.

Are any of you guys watching the bare knuckle stuff? We watched Masvidals event.

And as much as Mike Perry is annoying, that dude was built for the stuff.

I watched the event last weekend, Perry is for sure annoying but no denying he's tough. There were some great fights on that card too.

I like the concept of bareknuckle boxing but do not like how bkfc excutes it … because its not bareknuckle! They have tape on their hands that pretty much makes their fists lead weights…

It’s definitely still bare knuckle.. their knuckles are still exposed. They’re not allowed to have any gauze or tape within 1 inch of their knuckles. The tape is to prevent them from breaking hands or wrists.

The rules may have tightened up but there are a lot of examples where it sure doesnt look bareknuckle. People would fight a lot different without the wraps and I would like to see that… they might even have reverted to the old timey boxing style where you sit on your back foot with hands way out in front of you. As it is now you just see a lot of bad boxing technique no amount of blood can cover up…
