Ranked across every MMA promotion we track. BKFC is bare-knuckle boxing — two-minute rounds, and a punch count that is not a significant-strike count — so it is ranked only on its own boards.
Career boards need at least 5 bouts with tracked statistics.
Unofficial statistics compiled by UFCalendar from every completed fight in our database. Career boards need at least 5 bouts with tracked statistics and rate boards at least 50 attempts; BKFC is ranked only on its own boards.
