Extreme. Even so, you can look at the sports careers of female fighters who can cut themselves in the boxing ring without gloves. Apart from hard training and fights between the ropes, they can impress with their photos, which they sell to their fans. A mix that is very far from each other, but obviously works.
And just such two fighters will meet on August 20 in London at the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championships (BKFC) gala. Paige VanZant vs. Charissa Segal.
Both bet on their appearance, it sells them, they earn more than in the ring. Still they go and brawl between the ropes. And it’s not a scam. Just look at the two photos that are a few minutes apart. Sigala before the fight and the same warrior after the fight. The difference is diametrical.
“Tonight is amazing for combat sports. It’s a big day for women’s boxing, I love it. Of course I’m most excited for BKFC 24. I hope to hear news about the fight soon because I’m ready to put on another bloody show for everyone,” she wrote Sigala posted a photo on Instagram where she is covered in blood after the match.
After leaving the UFC, Paige VanZant had two fights without gloves, losing twice, but still got paid royally. For her two duels against Britain Hart and Rachel Ostovich, she collected 670 thousand dollars, which is 16 million crowns.
Sigala has played four games for BKFC, her score is 1-2-1. “I think it’s going to add a lot of hype to this card,” BKFC stable boss Dave Feldman told MMA Fighting in response to the women’s fight in London.
Which boxer will be happy in England? And in what condition will he leave the ring? Going forward, it is certain that a lot of attention will be focused on both of them, and the careers of both fighters will grow a bit more. Here, the path to the increase in popularity does not have to be primarily through winnings.
“I just do what I want to do. If I’m honest, I’ve put myself in a great position. I’ve been financially smart. I’ve put myself in a position where I can spend my time doing what I want, and that’s the true definition of wealth. I like to fight , I like to fight in BKFC and I don’t want to prove anything to anyone or myself,” VanZant was quoted by givemesport.com.
