    Default How common is it for MMA fighters to compete in Bare Knuckle Boxing matches?

    I just came across a poster for a Bare Knuckle boxing event that has a UK HW MMA fighter on as the main title fight.

    How common is this?

    Bare knuckle, probably not that common. Unlicensed, very common.

    What's the legal situation here? And is it in a proper venue, with a ring etc. or on a muddy patch of grass encircled by a number of caravans?

    i didnt think it was supposed to be public either but this has a promotor and everything behind it, looks crazy and also a mental mismatch between an mma fighter and a guy who is described as doing Wing Chung
