Taylor Starling Returning at BKFC Blood 4 Blood

Former title challenger Taylor “Killa Bee” Starling has been added to the inaugural Blood 4 Blood fight card, taking place on 6 May in Daytona Beach, Florida.

Starling will face an opponent to be announced at the heavy music and bare knuckle fighting event, conceived by Slaughter to Prevail’s Alex Terrible.

It’s Starling’s first BKFC appearance since she won a close decision over fellow contender Shelby Cannon last August.

The onetime pro boxer and kickboxer returned to gloved combat last December. Starling lost a controversial decision to Carla Jade on the undercard of the Andrew Tate-Chase Demoor influencer fight in Dubai. Not only did Starling lose a controversial decision, but she allegedly hadn’t been paid in the weeks after the fight.

The 30-year-old remains one of BKFC’s most popular female fighters. Her 2021 BKFC debut against Charisa Sigala at Knucklemania I went viral and became an instant classic.

Starling went on to unsuccessfully challenge Christine Ferea and Britain Hart for the BKFC women’s flyweight and strawweight titles. Ferea stopped her in the first round. Starling lost a close decision to Hart in 2024.

Starling (5-4, 1 KO) will look to remain in title contention with a win at Blood 4 Blood.
