Trouble has hit the BKFC Welterweight Division as popular champion Gorgan Slaveski was stripped of his title due to his participation for Karate Combat. BKFC released a statement just an hour ago:
Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC), has stripped welterweight world champion Gorgan ‘GoGo’ Slaveski of his title, it was announced today.
“Unfortunately, Gorgan accepted a fight outside the organization without our approval which resulted in BKFC stripping him of his welterweight title,” stated BKFC President and Founder David Feldman. “We will have a further announcement forthcoming about the now vacant welterweight title.”
Slaveski compiled a record of 6-0 fighting under the BKFC banner, winning the world title by defeating Jake Lindsey at BKFC-49 on August 25, 2023.
