Social media personality and avid combat sports enthusiast, Bryce Hall, is set to venture into the world of bare-knuckle fighting. His debut in this intense sport will take place at BKFC 48 in Albuquerque, N.M. on August 11, where he will face off against Gee Perez.
MMA Hook received confirmation of the matchup from BKFC officials on Friday. This move comes after the 23-year-old TikTok star’s previous boxing career took a hit when he was knocked out in the third round by fellow influencer Austin McBroom in 2021. However, Hall has since explored acting, with a small role in the Netflix film “He’s All That,” and is set to star in the upcoming horror movie “Skill House,” which also features BKFC star Paige VanZant. The film is being produced by Proxima Studios, owned by Ryan Kavanaugh, who coincidentally serves as the majority shareholder in Triller, the company that owns BKFC.
The anticipation for Hall’s bare-knuckle debut was fueled by BKFC president David Feldman’s recent teasing, and tensions escalated further when Hall got into a physical altercation with Perez during the BKFC 45 weigh-ins.
Perez, who emerged victorious in his fight at BKFC 45, bringing his bare-knuckle record to an impressive 3-0, will strive to maintain his undefeated status when he squares off against Hall in August.
The Hall vs. Perez matchup adds to the growing lineup of BKFC 48, which includes a highly-anticipated main event featuring local favorite and UFC veteran John Dodson against J.R. Ridge, with the winner being crowned the new BKFC flyweight champion.
