Travis Dickenson gives up English title to fight bareknuckle

Post by Wales »

Quite shocked to hear Dickenson has quit pro boxing to fight bareknuckle for BKB promotion. Their bareknuckle events have gained popularity with Frank Bruno a regular at their events, almost an ambassador for the sport. BKB are even in talks with ITV over televising some events...

Strange move from Travis who'll surely wipe floor with these guys

I announced this months ago, and there's some decent guys in this. It's very different to boxing, too.

Kevin "Bulldog" Bennett is doing the BKB now as well, he's doing really well at it.

He should go where he'll make the most money I guess.

Well his last appearance in the professional ring was a rather humbling one, maybe he wanted a fresh start...

Travis is a canny lad and I wish him luck. He's gone from punching people in the face for money, to punching people in the face for money. :OhYes:

The ops link was from last November. What's happened since then?

Thanks- seems like the bare knuckle game moves about as quickly as the boxing scene then
