Felice Herrig might be done with MMA, but she is sticking around in the world of combat sports.
BKFC recently signed Herrig to a multifight deal, weeks after her final UFC bout and retirement from MMA, a promotion official confirmed Tuesday to MMA Junkie after an initial report by MMA Fighting. The promotion later announced the signing via press release.
“BKFC is very excited to announce this major signing today,” stated BKFC president David Feldman. “Felice was one of UFC’s most popular fighters during her eight years with the company and now sees an opportunity to succeed in bare-knuckle fighting. We have a wealth of talented and tough female fighters and look forward to watching her compete in the squared circle.”
