BKFC is giving influencers another shot.
Social media superstar Bryce Hall (0-0) will give bareknuckle boxing a try, as he takes on undefeated Gee Perez (3-0) at BKFC 48, a BKFC official informed MMA Junkie on Friday. The bout is expected to take place Aug. 11 at Tingley Coliseum in Albuquerque, N.M.
The two scheduled combatants already had one physical interaction, as Perez smacked Hall at BKFC 45 ceremonial weigh-ins Thursday.
Hall, 23, is a social media personality known for his TikTok and YouTube videos. In June 2021, Hall competed in a celebrity exhibition boxing match against fellow influencer Austin McBroom. He lost by third-round stoppage due to strikes.
Perez, 34, is undefeated in bareknuckle boxing with three stoppages. Friday at BKFC 45, Perez defeated Phillip Ryan Carroll by first-round TKO.
The current BKFC 48 lineup includes:
- John Dodson vs. JR Ridge
- Bryce Hall vs. Gee Perez
