“This is great signing for Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship,” said BKFC Founder and President David Feldman. “At this time in our company’s growth, we needed to add a legitimate and well-established world champion boxer to our roster, and I believe with Paulie’s ability and personality we’ve done just that. Paulie is the perfect fit for us.”
Paulie Malignaggi retired from professional boxing after 38 fights, out of which he got eight loses and seven wins by Knockout. Losing to Sam Eggington in his last fight, Malignaggi had won three of his last four fights and was tipped to return after his alliance with Conor McGregor got soiled.
