BKFC Making Manchester Debut on 29 March

BKFC will visit Manchester for the first time on 29 March.

The event takes place at Planet Ice in Altrincham, and two matches are official.

The BKFC Manchester main event pits unbeaten Jonno “JCB” Chipchase (3-0, 3 KOs) against Gary Fox (3-2, 2 KOs) for the inaugural BKFC UK Featherweight Title.

The hard-hitting Chipchase challenges for the belt in his hometown. He’s coming off a first-round stoppage over BKFC and BKB veteran Toby “Wardog” Bindon last November. None of Chipchase’s matches have gone past the second round.

After losing his debut at welterweight, Fox dropped down to featherweight, where he’s won 3 of 4 bouts. His sole defeat is to Ellis Shepherd, who seems to have left BKFC UK and joined BYB.

Tickets for BKFC Manchester will be available directly from BKFC. The event streams live on the BKFC + app.

The last BKFC event in the UK took place last Saturday, 8 February in Newcastle. Karl Thompson won the BKFC UK Cruiserweight Title in the main event, stopping Rob Boardman in the first round.
