05 / THE SPORT

WHY BARE KNUCKLE BOXING

No Gloves.
No Hiding.

Bare knuckle boxing is the original combat sport. Boxing at its most honest, with hands wrapped but no gloves. Every punch lands differently. Every round demands more.

BKB fights are contested inside our proprietary three-sided cage, with 60-degree corners that force fighters to the centre and eliminate defensive rope-and-cage stalling. No rope-running. No hiding. Just two fighters and a result.

About BKB

Built from
the Ground Up.

BKB Bare Knuckle Boxing started in a backyard in South Florida. Dada 5000’s fights went viral worldwide.
From that raw, unfiltered origin, BYB Extreme was born, with a mission to bring bare knuckle boxing
into the mainstream without losing what made it electric.

In May 2024, BYB acquired London-based BKB, the world’s first licensed professional bare knuckle promotion.
In February 2025, the combined entity rebranded as BKB Bare Knuckle Boxing.
Today BKB is the largest, most internationally distributed bare knuckle organization on earth.

BYB Extreme founded in South Florida. Dada 5000’s backyard fights go viral worldwide.

BYB acquires London-based BKB, the world’s first licensed bare knuckle promotion.

Full rebrand to BKB. Deals signed with VICE, talkSPORT, and Telemundo.
