The Bareknuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) debut of 46-year-old former boxing world champion Demarcus “Chop Chop” Corley was not a successful one. Corley was stopped by Reggie Barnett officially in round four. The event took place at the Civic Center, in Biloxi, Mississippi. Barnett pretty much grappled and beat up the Corley until he retired on his stool in between rounds.
Washed up old man
How many fights have you had lamont?
Looks like Chop Chop got chopped chopped.
Much respect to Chop Chop but I think he’s hanging on to something that may just not be there anymore.
I thought it was a bad idea from Corley… indeed it was.
I hope he is fine after this beating and I hope also he think seriously about another way to round his income
Corely needs to walk away before he is permanently damaged and in a skilled nursing care home eating liquid foods through a G-tube. Sad!
I wasn’t at all impressed with this bareknuckle fight. Looks too much like UFC/MMA. Feels gimmicky compared to the Sweet Science. Kudos to Corley for giving it a shot at 46 years of age. He’s a warrior. The whole bareknuckle concept is a hard pass for me.
LexusNexus” Bareknuckle fights should not be allowed imo. Boxing is brutal at times as it is, and that is with gloves on. And there is the sweet science behind boxing which makes it a higher level of sport.
God Bless Chop Chop. What a courageous warrior. He has earned his living…
