Where would someone start a career for Bare-knuckle boxing?

Actors go to talent agents, models have agents, what agency or place would one go to to start a career in bare-knuckle boxing, like Kimbo Slice? I am in Michigan.


Thanks|||A real boxing club would be the best bet.





Since they will teach you to fistfight ten times better than bare knuckle guys.





For example Kimbo from his videos was a very poor fighter. arms held chicken wings, stomach exposed, no rotation on punches, no lead hand.he looked like a guy who tried boxing for a few months but was too lazy to stick at it.





He is only now just getting to a good amateur level of punching with all the training Bas rutten is giving him for MMA.





getting back to the subject go get real boxing lessons.





Then get your friends to record you punching out some street bums and tough guy wannabe%26#039;s.|||There%26#039;s no such thing as BARE-KNUCKLE anymore really. Even the UFC and ELITE XC make fighters wear 3 ounce gloves to protect your knuckles these days. The best option would be to start out in a Martial Arts setting where groundwork is needed. You can train boxing and striking skills to a point by yourself, but you need help and training partners to be able to perfect a ground game. If you saw the fight on tv this weekend with Kimbo then you KNOW the importance of learning how to fight on the ground. As you get more proficient you can take on different aspects of fighting, and move more toward the boxing as well. Striking is really fairly easy to learn compared to ground skills and wrestling. Most of the good ground guys have been wrestling since they were children.|||some of the gypsy sites I grew up on here in England will be an ideal training ground,starting from aged 10!Tough game though!Henry Wharton,former European champ and world title fighter,John H Stracy former world champ who beat Jose Napoles, all started as bare knucklers as gypsy%26#039;s,so dont get the impression bare knuckle fighters dont have boxing skills,but your question was regarding bareknuckle scrapping,was it not?|||well he was more of a street fighter i%26#039;ve heard of some more organized bkb but not sure about michigan man|||in brazil
