America’s First Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2018
- Since its heyday in the late 1800s, bare-knuckle boxing in the US has been relegated to parking lots and grimy basements, an underground sport that couldn’t find a way to bring itself above board. But in June of 2018-after spending years petitioning almost 30 states to sanction the brutal fights-promoter David Feldman finally managed to stage America's first-ever legal bare-knuckle boxing match in Wyoming.
VICE went to the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championships in Cheyenne a few days ahead of the big event to hear how Feldman managed to pull it off, and to meet a handful of fighters for whom boxing-and even MMA fighting-just isn’t hardcore enough.

Sometimes people have to protected from themselves though.
The only problem is that everyone can have a child, even those people. And let's face it, it's not exactly role modeling...

@@wickedbeanz but you can say the same for boxers
Exactly and it is grown adult prizefighters.
Back when bare knuckle boxing was the normal you would see less brain damage because boxers wouldn’t punch full power because they would be scared of breaking their hands. The longest boxing match ever lasted over 50 rounds and only ended when both fighters gave out of exhaustion. With bare knuckle boxing less knockouts happened and allowed better and longer fights. The reason why bare knuckle boxing is illegal is because it opens more cuts and blood is scary to some people.
Exactly sir.

I agree
I support that! Let them do what they wanna do, its their choice.
Yep, I don't like that it may lead to severe permanent injury, but there's no reasons to stop well informed fighter from doing what they want with their own bodies.
@Peter Evans Haha, I thought you were talking about cops, until I saw what you were responding about.
I'm a huge fan of decent education, especially the kind that uplifts individuals to think for themselves, and give them the tools to go out and learn anything their hearts desire. Honestly... though... the best teachers I've had were all unconventional that saw the world from an unusual perspective, and they were very good at questioning what many took for granted.
@Peter Evans Actually, I found teachers that followed curriculum were often uninspiring, and had nothing much to teach of value. But they would be shunned in their department as the strange ones. Automatons don't make a great thinker. They're good at producing robots.
School/education at its best would equip and empower a person to live well. Anything short is denying a person from teaching their full potential.

lol k psycho
Personal opinion here: I saw a lot of sportsmanship here. These folks are here to test themselves. Fair match ups. Not to beat someone to death.
That’s kinda how it starts, ufc, boxing, there will always be prime example of douchebaggery.
Well said my man
Apart from the ref you buffoon. The "holding" was a massive part in that "win". You need to wise up, JANSEN face, or be a bit more objective, like. ( It's in the dictionary, if ya do'nt know what it means, flower ! )
The mountain man KO was the best damn one punch and done I have ever seen in Any of the combat sports. It was amazing he faked a bit with his left and the other guy took the bait then BOOM WENT THE DYNAMITE!! The biggest and probably one of the hardest haymakers ever! Fantastic!
Pretty sure he's got a future in the sport if there's more sanctioned fights.
That was a serious banger. Guy was out cold on the way down. & the promoter argued in the beginning there are no knockouts in bkb.
I mean if people wanna do it why not let them do it
Truee, some people want to punch each other in the face, some want to get high on mushrooms. As long as you dont punch me Iam okay with them doing it

I been to a few BKFC fights live and it’s always action packed and super awesome, it’s amazing to see how far they’ve come 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
They’re some of the best cards/ fights happening right now. I love it. It makes me pretty happy that this 3 year old video was right at the time of their first event. Look at them now.
Man, I dont fight. I never needed to. But man. My hat is off to these people; for courage, focus, discipline, physical perfection.
People sending death threats, the irony is disgusting.
They don't want "brutal violence"
Yet they will commit brutal violence to prevent violence?
I just.... I don't get it.
Nobody is dying in the ring...
probably coming from the people that hold this kind of events illegaly
Ryan Gregory how do you know that?
True staement. Yet we have kids as well as adults recording fights on their phones yelling out World Star! This is legal and under strict rules, I approve.
You may not die, but you will get old fast.
"So why not make it safer and regulate it?"
"So we found this guy that can punch over 1700 pounds."
… but that is exactly what happened.
UFC when it first came out had no weight class and one martial art would go agaisnt anything else. And it was bare knuckle. So, this person's UA-cam account doesn't know what he's talking about. Ya'll forgotten about Hoyce Gracie and Shamrock already? They were BARE KNUCKLE in 1995. EVERYONE was bare knuckle back then! So VICE needs to get it together.
Maybe its in the words "AMERICAS" & "FIRST" & "CHAMPIONSHIP". But UFC started as bare knuckle and classless and there was no weight class either. Just BRAWLERS vs BRAWLERS, regardless if you were ju jitsu, taekwondo, boxer, street fighter, … it didn't matter what you were. If you thought you were a FIGHTER and you wanted some, you came and got some! I've seen skinny guys fight big muscle moutains. I seen short guys fight tall guys. I've seem 3rd degree black belts fight street fighters.
It was far more "entertaining" back in its early days. Then it became popularized and managed and boring.
@@DonCornelius366 In the real world you don't choose the size or skill of your opponent.You either stand or fall.
@@williamtell2496 I know.
I've had 9 fights in my life.
All older, all bigger (cause my sister is older, and her boyfriends are older than her, so, to get with the girl you have to be cool with the little brother - all my friends are OLDER than I am)
I've never lost a fight.
That is why I say someones ability to fight - they are BORN with it. It's like singing. Either you are BORN with the skill, or you're not. It comes natural … like its always been there.
So, yeah, I get it. There are no rules outside the squared circle.
The guy talking is referring to strictly boxing.
@Clench Chad Man If he's lying, he is doing so only to himself... With that being said I can totally relate to what he said as I've had similar experience myself... I would add that if ANYONE fucked with my family he would get rekt, doesn't matter how big, strong, fast or crazy they are PERIOD. Due to my size at that time and sizes of my opponents I wasn't a stranger to baseball bat or steel pipe...even rocks... whatever gets the job done. I had more than few fights and 90% of them were for wrong reason, I realize that now that I'm more mature... and reason I had that was cause I was growing up in poverty and being surrounded by dumb people. Still, I wouldn't change jack shit even if I could... all of my past made me who I am today
Huge respect to these warriors, bare knuckle fighters and mma fighters are the closest things that we have to gladiators that we have today
Comparing them to gladiators is a valid critique of fighting as well.
And boxers
Vice, you fucking nailed this documentary. Excellent direction, implicit interviewers (you don't hear the interviewer, you just hear the answers.(
Oh hell yea, we're slowly getting back to roman gladiator standards
ikr lol. there are even bouts where 2 guys are Knights gear going at it. Granted the Weapons are as sharp as a butter knife but still, it's sick in the most epic way.
You're being judged moron.
Need more distractions as our government fucks us.
AlChesoir Yeah!! It’ll be great when the allow swords !! 🤔🥴😒
Actually Romans very rarely killed each other. They usually killed strictly at executions and if you killed another fighter you could either get jail time or executions. It'd be the same as McGregor killing Maywether. You just lost an extremely good fighter for no reason.
Damn Vice, this is some high level promo shit. I thought I was watching an epilogue on HBO's 24/7
Dude did something I didn’t think was possible. And watching that first shot show of a live fight was awesome. It was all about the fighting and getting us to watch it and I was glued. It was badass and they did great. Warriors, there’s no bullshit in a street fight.
Bruh this dude is the real life one punch man
"Life is not easy, life is rough, there's a lot of people out there that wanna hold you down you know and knock you down and to keep you there...
I just want people to know that, just keep trying, dust yourself off. Just let your light shine in the world." -Sam ‘Mountain Man’ Shewmaker
Great quote.
Who knew that a guy dubbed the Mountain Man would be this generation's closest thing to a Warrior Poet. BTW that was one of the best knockouts I've ever seen. I didn't believe it when they said that he had 1700 pounds of punching power but it definitely showed wow
Mike Hansen ikr that was a monster overhand right with bad intentions. I can’t wait for these folks to come to Arkansas!
@@MallThat Agreed, then I saw his overhand right. Very fast and accurate, reminds me of Big Country Nelson in the UFC/Bellator.

That one punch knockout was so hard I felt it through my phone
These are real fighters
In old Rome you would have two benches brought together end-to-end. The combatants were given special gloves designed the inflict damage. They were secured in place. The pummeling would continue until one man was dead.
I learned about this when reading about a champion in this sport.
Rome loved it's blood sports.
The gloves are meant to protect the fighters hand. Not his jaw.
Prevents cuts somewhat too. Sure in mma ppl get cut with elbows and knees often but in bare knuckle every punch that lands good has a chance to slice you open
True.
No rules in a street fight. Phuck all that gear.
Still safer to fight without gloves. So whats your point?
@Peter Evans actually yes it as as without gloves you can't punch to your maximum power without a risk of injury so usually people don't punch their hardest
THEY HOSTED IT IN A HOCKEY RINK.
A HOCKEY RINK WHERE MEN FIGHT BARE KNUCKLE ON ICE.
LEGENDARY.
@Tom Silverheart That's a judgement call based on your limited viewing of actual hockey fights while also completely missing the point.
I don't think the current NHL is a good representation of bare-knuckle boxing on the ice. However, if you watch some of the more "backyard" or even some of the lower pro leagues under NHL, there is still a lot of the goon aspect involved. You need only to look to the past and see there were countless fights in the 80's that resulted in blood baths. These men often trained in formal boxing to keep up with their skills on the ice. (Ray Emery - Goaltender was a proficient boxer, there's COUNTLESS others, but I won't go into a list)
Fighting on the ice is very different from in the ring too, you just got done playing a hard working shift, your coach asks you to step in, you get in a scrum to help get your teams motivation back and draw the energy from the crowd to hopefully make a nice turn for your team. Then you have to play out the rest of the game after. So to say its only 10-15 seconds is like excluding the swimming and biking a triathlon runner just did and say well, it doesn't count cause you only ran half of what normal runners run. Most of the time, you're right, they are missing, glancing, punching helmets, or having an intense hugging match - but that's street fighting though. However, if you watch some of the actual fights on a hockey rink, they are brutal and the only "real" bare knuckle fight you can pay to watch in today's modern age.
To me, this bare-knuckle boxing gave a nod of respect towards one of the only modern sports to incorporate bare knuckle fights in the game and allow it as a tactic to let you change the tide of the game. It's sad that the NHL has turned into a wussy sport. I like to compare it from full contact football to flag football. Now a days, the NHL is just a shell of what it's former league once was - the grit is no longer there and they prefer Skill over Will.
@@zedmoeIt mades a great sport trash...I love hockey...youth hockey where there is no fighting
fooglez I’m not that old but I remember back in the day how me and my friends would beat he shit out of each other on the rink back in Sweden and it was awesome. I have to admit that it’s nowhere close to actual boxing and MMA and when it comes to commercial hockey like the NHL it’s horrible and when it’s actually happening during matches it gets broken up quickly as hell.
Wish it was like back in the day and perhaps even worse.
lol @ comparing this to hockey.... I'd rather watch men REALLY fight than play a sport where men can't even play a game without being thrown into a penalty box or throwing fists. Either watch sports or watch fighting. They don't go together and they honestly contradict the values of playing sports.

Talking about sanctioned fights.
you can feel the pain in this mans voice, you know this is gonna be something big one day.
Holy SHIT. I love the mountain man, and totally expected him to lose. I've met dudes like him though, and they're tougher than nails. That was insane. One hitter quitter.
There's only one way to punch anything that hard without significant training, and that's to have naturally good punching mechanics. That knockout strike was virtually a textbook hapkido strike, and probably how boxers get taught to throw overhand strikes. Perfect, tight shoulder roll forward that whips the arm and hand over the top, making impact at full extension in a downward direction, tightly closed fist, and turning the thumb down towards the ground after impact. They are devastating strikes.
I was at a bar once and a bunch of big dudes (210-260lbs) were wailing on one of those boxing games that measures how hard you punch. The machine maxes out at 1000. 1000 what? Who knows. They had pushed the high score up to 790. They were at this for about 20 minutes taking turns. When they were done I went over and fed a coin in, hit it once and got 862 at a weight of around 195lbs. Owner comes out of his office and buys me a drink and says he'd never heard anyone hit the machine that hard in the 6 years he had it. Mechanics make ALL the difference. The look one of the dudes gave me when he walked over to see the score was of disbelief, but also respect.

It was incredible.
Dudes a beast good for him. And another reason for people to watch their mouths when their talking shit to somebody, ya never know who can put ya in the dirt with 1 punch. I'm6'4 230lb and in shape always been the big guy since grade school but around 7th-8th grade my dad gave me best advice ever. He said son your gonna be a big dude but just cause your the biggest and think the baddest there is always some better and badder and just cause they may be 5'8 and 125lb don't mean they cant knock your big ass out. But i sure do like watching a loud ass running his mouth getting knocked out by the smaller dude cracks me up

@@jonathanzuckerberg8850 You mean elbow. Knee is different muscles so might be a different range or even lower. Now elbow is same motion range. N a harder surface. Thats a fucking ouch n a half

that one punch shewmaker scene is pretty inspirational!
David Feldman is actually a pretty nice dude. I went to the BKFC Prospect Series in Albuquerque and I saw him walking by and I just said "excuse me, Mr Feldman" and he actually stopped walking. He turned toward me as I held out my hand and said "I'm a big fan of what you've done with your organization" and he shook my hand and said thank you. He could've totally pretended like he didn't hear me or something.
that 1 punch ko damn
Honestly, knees and elbows to the head is more devastating than a bare knuckle...
Honestly it feels terrible but bare knuckle fighters looks terrible have you seen lobov.
All i think is that bk doesnt look like an art i mean you cant do shit if the guy in front of you has more power than you
The thing is: bare knuckle hurts both fighters. It's gruesome. Knees and elbows are brutal, but the man landing them feels nothing.

Think the most important thing here is to have health regulations around HIV ect. If every match includes blood, there has to be some systems in place to protect fighters who are and aren't HIV positive.
His point was exactly to NOT let that happen. If you don't think about the risk of that happening, it will eventually, so it was a good suggestion from Reclusive Eagle.

People criticise bare knuckle being more brutal than boxing. But that’s just what it looks like. In boxing you’re getting hit by padded gloves multiple times and taking multiple blows to the head, in MMA & bare knuckle you’re rarely able to take the same amount of blows to the head as you do in boxing.

I have about thirty bare knuckle fights in the early 70’s in Chicago. I made about 5,000 per fight. I always had a 1911 in my gym bag. I started karate at age 10 and started doing knurled push ups around age 12.
Won all my fights and always got hurt to some degree.
Not worth it. $5,000 for possible permanent damage? Soooooo not worth it.
0:27 "This event that we're doing is actually the first bare knuckle fighting event in the history of the world" - This is as wrong as a claim such as "Beer has originally been invented in the US".
There is a huge misconception about this, boxing gloves are to protect the wearer not the receiver. My grandfather was a bare knuckle boxer in the Royal Navy, they did it for sport and they were told not to do it because they kept breaking their fingers and hands and this makes you useless on board a ship.
thank you for the free wisdom sun tzu
You really sound smart and educated on the topic, thank god your grandfather was a bare knuckle boxer in the Royal Navy
Lemme hit u with my bare hand. Bare hands does more damage
Kml Salapata
It may cause more pain because the knuckle comes to a sort of point, but it does not do more damage to the skin or bones of the head than a punch with a glove would do.
Kml Salapata sure they do but it’s not the single bombs that give you brain damage it’s sustained and full force head shots that boxing gloves and wraps allow you to throw that gives boxers brain damage.
If it's true that bare knuckles reduce chances of brain damage then that's interesting...but is there evidence of that?
Also why would you want to take part in a sport where you break your hands (aside from maybe reducing your brain damage potential...but then why not just choose another sport or hobby).
Way to go violence cool dudes lets just promote violence.
Let's bring back the colosseum and animal baiting...
I once hit a bong with 50lbs of pressure.

And went on to consume 50 lbs of food. Then proceeded to stare at a crack in the wall for hours, trying to understand how it came to be, and why it isn't the answer humanity needs. Then a bird flew by the nearest window in distress, and someone hit the car horn which sounded a bit off, and then you probably thought to yourself, "I might need some chocolate".

@MarkThisWayAfter well yes and no. Yes the it's legal to fight in hockey. The refs will allow it. But they do get penalties for it after. But the actual fight is allowed to go on till one person is down. And it's Illegal to throw a punch in a fight with a glove on.
Ps hockey is the best sport
MarkThisWayAfter it’s aloud but you get a penalty after the fight
Leandro Peanuts ps no
come on.. hockey fights are kinda a joke. It's like half patting and half hugging.
I'm pretty sure you can throw down in lacrosse too..
Why would ppl send them death threats? That is rediculous and I don’t get why.
Pure haterade my friend. People hate on other's success.
Yeah you are right but they need to get a life.
@@tristanmason7405 Agreed
Would have been great if Kimbo Slice could have been apart of this..
Yea considering that we've all watched his videos doing this before it was legal in middle in highschool.
We found the real one punch man
HIs punching power proves it at the beginning.
WAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNN PUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNCCCCCCCCHHHHHH
is it gonna be called "KFC" for "knuckle fighting championship"
It's actually gonna be called BKFC (Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship)

Bare knuckle boxing is the original boxing
I've been watching this since it came out. Hope it goes international.love it
Dear diary, Vice is pretty cool today.
I really like this comment
@@awolff3381 delete your comment
@@pilot4910 delete your face
Sawce Vice is for democrat hairy vegans
@@JoseLopez-fg5sn maybe, but this video is about bare knuckle boxing I don't think vagens would be interested in this shit they probably would wet themselves this clearly is more of a conservative leaning video
That may be the shittiest angel wings back tattoo I've ever seen on another human being 🤦🏿♂️
on another human? so your angel wings are shit too hahaha
only slaves need tattoos lol
I bet you won't say shit to his face about his tattoo.
@@tence_6965 i knew some ass was gonna make this comment
@@jermainetalaepa8463 how did you come to that conclusion based on what I stated above? Did logic play any part in your retort? 🤔
That first hit was so fast that I had to rewind multiple times to see it lol!
These fighters are literally risking their lives in this sports. Crazy but exciting.
Pretty sure the beard guy is doing the Saitama Workout

One of the best video contents Vice released. The quality is on a whole new level. This is what Vice should be!
Like the Peterson video. BS as it's best.
What other stuff are they putting out? They better be fucking awesome because Vice's reputation is on the sewer with just a few exceptions...
This is and always has been vice? xD
@@hfvales They did a really good video on Cat hunting in Australia, seriously, I couldn't believe they actually showed hunters explaining why is needed, and how humane are the ways they kill them, or at least how they try to make it as quick and clean as possible
This is what Vice was before Murdoch media got involved.
other boxers: wear gloves but have bare foot
bare knuckle fighters: have bare knuckles but wear shoes!!!
I think it's a very entertaining combat sport. Short sharp fights, loads of action and a lot of respect between the fighters (from what I've seen). Big fan 👍🏻 (I train for this, but only as a fan 🤣)
bruh, mountain man is POWERFUL
Where tf does he get all that power from? Buddy he was fighting was jacked as fuck and ol mountain man, relatively out of shape, just threw a fucking jackhammer in in his face. Guess his beard gives him the power or some shit
They should call him one punch man after that fight
@@djxkoxxf6898 man threw a haymaker with the power of ZEUS
@@djxkoxxf6898 guessing part of it comes from baseball, takes a whole lotta power to throw a ball at those speeds, and mountain man did say he played baseball at some amateur level.

"Watch when i get older. Now everybody thinks im crazy. Cuz im older" 😂
I don’t see how this is worse than regular boxing considering that even with gloves, Canelo still broke Billy Joel’s orbital and nearly blinding him proving the stigma of gloves protecting the fighter is a load of bullshit.
Smart using Joe Rogan speech
I agree aha
But strange to not attribute it to his podcast
Smart move by Joe Rogan. How can you pad and justify the UFC? Seek to justify a lower animalistic form of fighting. I just love that intro where they have some dude tell his poor life choices of street fighting as a sob story, and try to make into a success story of doing it as a profession..."kill or be killed", what a novel degradation of values.
Lol how many people thought the same thing now we’re here
@@Bedenskii You're statement isn't clear. "Now we're here", is that a good, bad, or neutral statement? You're statement reflects that you are unable to communicate a thought. Is it fair to conclude that you aren't thinking things through? Maybe. It would help if you can explain/demonstarte why "here" is an improvement or rather a step back for humanity.
In anticipation of the response being under thought and naive, I would like to state that "freedom" and "rights" do come with consequences. These consequences can be beneficial or an additional problem. I do not see promoting street fighting as being beneficial. I see it promoting more violence on the streets.
My dad will be the best at this he practices on me all the time!😁
SAme
My dad did untill I tried the same on him. Helped very well untill today. Now he is like my little brother
I’ll call the police for you, I got your IP address.
They’l get you VERY soon
Israel Maya luna my dad always does this to my mom, or my pee pee. We are bro’s! 😂💖💩🙌😘🥳🌈
Another unfunny and unoriginal dad beating joke
Bare knuckle is awesome it takes mad skill to do what the fighters do I’m glad it’s taken off 3 years later still going strong keep your hands up everyone ✌️💪
No American has ever beaten a British man in this sport where it was invented!🇬🇧
The ref in the female fight,was an idiot to allow the continue holding of the head and neck.
Thank u! that was total BS!!
It’s called the clinch and it’s a legal move in boxing and mma nothing wrong with a little dirty boxing but I will say it seemed like that want legal in this fight seeing as it’s a stand up fight and no grappling it’s a iffy call
allowing her to be a warrior
You're correct, if it is in their rule book that it is illegal, then it should have been stopped. If it is legal, then whatever, I haven't read their rule book so I wouldn't know...
@@LogicbyDesign "nothing wrong with a little dirty boxing" dirty boxing is literally against the rules ergo it is wrong.
They need to ban holding the back of the head and punching. It's banned in boxing, it's defiantly the most dangerous thing they were doing.
rofl0bot dude, this idea comes from rio heroes and vale tudo. If you think this is unfair you would hate that. The rules are essentially no groin shots, no biting, no eye gouging and no kicking if you wear shoes.
Headbutts, grinding your chin into their eye socket, kicking them in the head when they are on the ground, hitting the in the back of the head are all legal
@@IXSICNESS Has anyone died or gotten brain injury from that? Sounds like it'd happen every week with hits to the back of the head and floor kicks to the head.
JordanWoodland not that im aware of. A lot of the fighters went on to pride and k1
Sure it's legal, but isn't it still dangerous as fuck?
rofl0bot muy Thai they hold and knee. U guys are so scared. The Brazilians have been Vale Tudo since for ever. It was all bones on bones and everyone is alive with bright minds. Gloves hurt the brain.
I swear I thought at 19:59 he was going to say "ITS TIME, TO D-D-D-DU-DUELLLLLL" 🤣😂🤣😂😂😂
It takes emotional Strength to engage in combat like this. Very few ppl could be good fighters
Mexican dude was the bullied kid that became a bully such a nasty "I got something to prove to myself" attitude
cancerous attitude
Thats a great character development
he's weird as hell
@@ridunnafuz8952 that's a great degradation
The fact he mentioned UFC fighters being pussies its like, if they got in with him, literally any, hed just die lmao
I didn't think the mountain man would win, I was like "poor dude". The only thing that kept me holding on was hope that he could land one of those super punches but I didn't even see that punch coming. I was like, "wait; what, what happened".

Well.... hadn't thought of it that way but it was kinda cool watching though like that. I would like to see that more often.
