BKFC set to hold event at Fenway Park in Boston

BKFC will stage a bare-knuckle event at Fenway Park in Boston on Aug. 29, bringing the promotion to Massachusetts for the first time in its history. The card is presented as a first-of-its-kind for the state and also marks a notable pairing with the home of the Boston Red Sox. In the main event, BKFC featherweight champion Kai Stewart will defend his title against New England native Harry Gigliotti. BKFC president Dave Feldman said the collaboration with Fenway Park is unprecedented and that the matchup is expected to be among Stewart’s toughest challenges. The promotion has expanded into new markets after outdoor events in South Dakota and a card held in a bullfighting arena in Spain.
