LIVE! BKFC 48 Results, Streaming Updates Tonight!

John Dodson fights for the Flyweight title, and social media star, Bryce Hall, makes his bareknuckle debut.

Good evening, punching enthusiasts of all stripes. BKFC 48 goes down TONIGHT (Fri., Aug. 11, 2023) from inside Tingley Coliseum in Albuquerque, N.M., streaming online via Fite.TV.

If you’re reading this, you are probably in one of two camps: here to watch former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) two-time 125-pound title contender and The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 14 winner, John Dodson, who will lock horns with Joshua Ridge for the inaugural BareKnuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) Flyweight title belt. Or, you might be here for a gentleman mostly unknown to the first camp, social media star, Bryce Hall.

First of all, credit and respect to Hall. He is the first social media guy I’m aware of who has been willing to go into a sport that most would deem even more hardcore than regular boxing (just ask this former UFC champion). That said, he is a marked underdog to Gee Perez, who is 3-0 (3 KO/TKO) in this sport. Hall’s TikTok account has 24 million followers, and his YouTube channel has three million subscribers, but for the man whose sole venture into combat sports was a loss to fellow YouTuber, Austin McBroom, those numbers won’t help him as he looks to make a name for himself as something other than a punching bag.

Moving on back to the seasoned veterans of combat sports, Dodson and Ridge for the new title promises to be a barnburner match. The past 1.5 years has seen a career resurgence for Dodson, having won three mixed martial arts (MMA) bouts in a row under the XMMA and RIZIN banners, and is looking to make it another three straight in BKFC. Meanwhile, Joshua “JR” Ridge is on a two-fight win streak of his own and is looking to make a name by collecting Dodson’s scalp.
