Shewmaker has always been my favorite. He’s a class act who respects his opponents. I’ve been watching him since he went and fought bare knuckle in the UK.
Evil Bong420 did you try typing in his full name along with the word “fights” That usually works for me haha But i dont know if any of his previous fights was recorded or not lol
This is the 2nd fight ive seen of him and he does seem like a decent honorable guy! Other guys a cocky smug tit 👎🏻
@SALTY SALLY Source? Google says his only pro boxing fight was against a guy called Mario Munoz, which he won.
I live in the lake of the ozarks mo real close to him and I’m just waiting till one day i see him and I can meet him
Hes around ha
Notice how for such a "barbaric" or "bloodthirsty" sport, this is probably the most positive comment section of a professional fight I've ever seen.
@Michael Fitzpatrick a "barbaric" or "bloodthirsty" sport? seriously? in MMA they can repeatedly pound an opponent in the face/head with elbows+ knees and while they're down pound their face while sitting on them... and bare knuckles are... a "barbaric" or "bloodthirsty" sport? Reality beg to differ...
Seriously!
that's not too barbaric at all... lol, look at the skills they need to defend themselves in "skilled combat". its art.
@@eaglint I think they where trying to get at the bare Knuckle aspect of it
@@beninem8600 or just fighting in general. Basketball and football comment sections are toxic
Both riders are so humble . One of the reason why I like bareknuckle fighting
true sportsmanship right here
Except betford
These two big men put on one of the best technical fights Ive seen from heavyweights ever. 👏🏾👏🏾✊🏾
I absolutely love the mutual respect that comes with this sport.
Yes. That's what makes this sport better than the UFC.
Lloyd Holm Same. That's how it should always be.
it's funny because the refs are pretty much just enjoying the fight. fighters even call themselves out on fouls and the fight very rarely needs broken up at the bell
Until that hillbilly found out that he lost, then suddenly he disappeared. No sportsmanship then.
Its real I hope it stays so pure long term
Damn... how much coke did the anouncer have before the fight.. He dont need a mic.
That dude hype AF with his spiked-ass silver shoes
Coked up announcer: What time is it!? Crowd: It's time to fight! It's time to get fucked up! Coked up announcer: WHAT TIME IS IT!!!? Crowd: ? Coked up announcer: It's time to knuckle up!!!!!
@@Obshowersyndicate Damn, you noticed that too? FFS bring in a guy who can speak..at the very fuckin least.
First thing it showed was his shoes and I said who the fuck is this... lmao hell naa
@@kenbarr7069 They're sort of free to create their own personalities, the only real constant that seems to unify all of these announcer types is the way they speak. I hope he orders in the drive thru line with the same voice.
It's like if u remove the gloves u also remove the ego lol
Nocturnal RS - couldn’t agree more!
Definitely!! Much more respect without gloves
Nocturnal RS it also seems safer as far as brain damage is concerned
@@anonymousbosch9265 Damage may have already existed prior to the fight, thus nonsignificant
Just noticed after u mentioned
i had to pause to give Adams some fine words on his movement! he is really agile for a big fellow
Surprising head movement. Notice he used his body to push Shewmaker around a little, too.
I wish we could've seen kimbo in this heavy weight division... ✊👊
Yeah Kimbo slice wouldve thrived in bare knuckle boxing' 💪🏼💪🏼👍🏼
Oh that would have been amazing.
Facts bro wouldve been the GOAT..no wrestling no mma just boxing kimbo could not be fuxkef with

Great Sportsmanship from Both Scrappers!!
Adam was a coward he kept grabbing like a bitch
@@d.kvanorder8124 it's called a clinch which is legal so what is the problem
@@d.kvanorder8124 also he knocked him on his ass so why are you complaining
It hard when Santa Claus got to get a side job fighting
Wow, I did not expect a technical boxing match between two fighters with good jabs and decent feet with excellent sportsmanship. Nice job, guys!
one thing I love about fighters they know it takes heart to get in that ring and they have respect for each other thanks for the up load
That knockdown sealed it.
NOW THIS IS PROFESSIONAL BOXING 🥊. Love it.
I can’t say I’ve ever really watched much BK boxing but I came across this channel today and have watched quite a few fights now. The level of respect and sportsmanship between the fighters in all the fights I’ve seen has been amazing to see !! Very impressive.
"make sure ya get me loafers" "what?" "my shoes, with the, the camera. Make sure you get em in the shot"

There's no place like home x3
Savage kicks
when was this? i missed it
The knockdown won him the fight. It was a good tilt all the way through the fight and was neck and neck. However the fight was lost for Shew after the knockdown. Really enjoyed this fight... both of these guys are studs and real competitors. Love the sportsmanship. Salute fellas
Correction, it was neck and beard the whole fight.
@@rip8009 🤣 indeed.
@ 100%
The knock-down only cemented. He stayed a few punches ahead. Can'tbelieve one of the referees actually gave it to the. Sick world we live in.
Boxcar Rick not sure what fight you saw ... Shewmaker was getting gabbed and controlled for tho whole fight he was backing up
The way that two men can engage each other in a brutal conflict and at the end of the contest show mutual respect for each other is one of the crowning glories of being a man
I like it when opponents respect each other. Adams style seemed effortless and fluid. He boxed like he was mentally in another more tranquil place almost like he was fighting for a belt but for the pleasure of movement.
Wanted to see a KO from shewmaker so bad... But respect for him for the great performance, his opponent is very illusive, smart and strong!
Not quite.. Adam's is soft and dont know how to fight
Jacob Harrington you crazy Adams put on a show if this was a traditional heavyweight match (boxing) 12 rounds sam was going to bed 🤷🏾♂️ I fuck wit Sam tho he a dog
Shewmaker has no skill just a brawler
@@tom11zz884 you wouldn't know skill if it smacked you upside the head. dudes held titles, you, you hold yourself while your crying to sleep at night.
@@cocorkiller2322 Adams won quite easily. his tactic is much better, and he strikes with big force without much effort. He is way more efficient with his fighting than Sam. Sam got a heart of a fighter and a strong overhand right though I'll give him that over Adams.
Thank you for editing out the time between rounds !
Crowd didn't even support him ,you could hear a pin drop it was so quite. they really didn't want him to win.
@@shitwindsshitcity6689 lol he got knocked down. Of course he lose
They were rooting for the other guy
That’s a bad call he shouldn’t of won the guy with the beard was much better bad call
@@MrBlackghost34 the knock down gave Adam the win, anybody with a brain could see that. no bad call was made. you're just a hater. both fighters were awesome.
Of course because he's black.
First one of these Id seen, really was not as “brutal” as I thought it would be. The few times I’ve been in a fight with someone(s), it was something that was over in a minute or 2 and the damage done was always, well very visible. These guys being so professional in protecting themselves I guess is that difference. I’m surprised at how little banged up both these guys look after 5 full rounds, geez.
Watch a few more, most fights end up with someone with a face that looks like it was in a blender, haha
In my heart I wanted that split decision to go the other way, but that knockdown by Earl in the last round stunned me! This was a great fight and I love the comradery shown between the 2 fighters. This was one of the most exciting fights I've seen from you guys, and not a drop of blood was spilled.
They got Shewmaker at 6'3" and Adams at 6'0", but Adams looks an inch taller
Facts I had to rewatch lol
It's his stance his
@cozy Cool wtf are you taking about haha
@Poisonous Nut he's talking about the mercator projection on maps like google earth where countries get stretched to fit the globe
Yeh they look the same height at most
The mutual respect they showed each other, proves they're both winners, no racism in this ring. Quality fight guys hold your heads high.👏🏼💪🏼
Racism isn’t really a thing. Don’t give it more credence than it truly deserves. None.
Me: Wonder if that beard absorbs uppercuts? 12:20: Guess not.
I respect the way Adams gave his take on the fight. It was truthful and honorable.
As a Brotha from Washington D.C., I just wanted to stop in and say "salute" to both Fighters.....excellent, excellent FIGHT, and both Men showed "Grown Man Respect" to each other, which to me, is by far, most important.....can't wait until BARE KNUCKLE GOES TO OTHER STATES.....🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🤔😃👌👍 ( And one more thing.....if we/us as a United States, could settle our collective or individual differences like this.....versus Guns🔫.....THAT WOULD MAKE OUR NATION SO MUCH BETTER, OVERALL, SO🤔👊✊)
Agreed. Should be able to file a challenge in court for a fist fight if you got a problem with someone and they're willing to handle it that way. Never gonna happen though.
My man’s right 18 years old and I can’t get enough of the bkfc and all the other bare knuckle promotions that started after bkfc
What a great fight between two great fighters. That knockdown won him the fight
I think it was a great decision. Great fight and sportsmanship also. Would love to see a rematch.
Really enjoyed this, thank you.
These guys had mad respect for each other. Great to see such respect. Props to both fighter's
This was an amazing and satisfying fight! I was on the edge of my seat through the entire bout. Very entertaining indeed!
Close fight. Knockdown decided it. Right decision by the judges.
And already passin ufc up w ring ladies 🤘🏼
i love the fast edits between rounds...but damn I would love to see/hear some corner advice in-between to hear how the fighters/coaches are seeing things from up close
Best thing I found on KZhead in a long time. Wish this sport the best moving forward.

Good fight, two warriors. We still love you Shewmaker. uk..
I feel like Shewmaker would of had it if it wasn't for that knockdown. Excellent fight, excellent guys
Thanks for showing these fights on KZhead. Normally I cannot afford to watch, especially now. So I really appreciate this.
AJA!! worked with this Brother many times and he's a Genuinely good Dude and good to be around! I'm proud of you CHAMP YOU DID THE CHI PROUD!! AJ AJ AJ AJ AJ !!!
What is he a street fighter or boxer ?
✊👏
@@claudiomonreal4822 No he's a legitimate fighter
@@nothingbutwords5958 🤝🤝🤝❗❗
Amazing fight. I wouldn't say Shewmaker got robbed, i had him winning 2 and 3, the fifth was close but that knockdown did it for my scorecard. Amazing performance by both men!
@vamp nigga I am blushing profusely
The look on your face when you know you’re beat and the judges give you the belt anyway... haha Hell of a fight though, both men put it out there.
how was he beat when the only knockdown was the other guy. Aside from that shewmaker was even with him at best.. Adams really had more finesse and better punches. Not a whole lot better but again, he knocked shoemaker down and Shewmaker did not knock him down. So again I ask how in your mind did Adams not deserve the belt?
The respect in this sport and by these two fighters is so nice to see
This is the best technical fight I’ve watched them put on. 🤔👌🏻
I just got to say at 6min in the clinch fighting👍💯is awesome from both and allowed to do it is the right thing to do! Good fight and thanks BKFC👍👍👊💯
@David Sanchez it usually is that's why it was good here because they were active in it! As long as they keep throwing its a good thing and get rid of any standing 8s anywhere! its not right! It like giving 2nd and 3rd chances at a fight ya probably woulda lost
Adam didn't throw shit till he got lucky in the end he grabbed to much and the judge called it shity adam fought like a coward shew should of won
I know this will get lost in the tons of comments but I can’t get over the moment at 13:44 where just a couple seconds before the round ends, Sam gets the opportunity to land one of his devastating knockout rights. At 13:45 both men are looking at each other square in the face, and the character of Sam really showed. The victory wasn’t worth the damage to his friend, that’s a true friend.
True friends wouldn't stop being friends over an L.
1:31 sounds like he's just been stabbed 😂😂 That knock down made all the difference
Shewmaker to me is starting to show himself to be the face of this sport. You're gonna need to go to the streets to scout some fighters to challenge him. Adams was a hell of a fighter this bout.
James O given that the dude was measured to have 60% more power in his punch than the typical fighter, he’s got a huge future if he can catch up technically to the rest of them, the guy is super impressive for someone who just recently started training boxing, this fight wouldn’t even been close if you gave him another 8-10 months of training given his progression speed. Also not cool how the fans didn’t really show the winner respect, the guy was humble, fought his ass off, even admitted that he thought he was either down or tied until he landed the knockdown, I don’t know what city this was in but that was not a good look for that city judging by that audience
Adams got a knockdown. How is it a split decision?
jhalyn greene exactly the other dude was missing a bunch of punches Adams was stepping around him most of the fight
@@BigMikeGaming25 running from* not stepping around
AustinCoontz Stepping Around He Clearly Wasn’t Running Look How Close They Were In The Fight Goofy
@@BigMikeGaming25 get your eyes checked bub
AustinCoontz just Like Shewmaker Got His Chin Checked
That was fantastic loved both these guys quality individuals. I'd watchem all day. Big respect fellas
It’s refreshing to see actual technical boxing in bareknuckle. Cudos to Adams. Most of the time it’s just two guys seeing how quickly they can rearrange each other’s faces.
Adams out there like he in the WBC lol
It says “Trucks” instead of “Trunks” lmfao
I think Shewmaker is my favorite BK Boxer since the vice episode a couple years ago when it started
I'm a new fan of this league. Wow!
Fight was pretty even until Shewmaker gassed out in the 4th...heavy breathing. Adam's cardio is excellent looking like he can go 12 rounds. I hope Shewmaker works on his cardio to get ready for a rematch! 👋🏿🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑👍🏿
It was good cause he didn't engage at all....
Arnold Adam's is one hell of a fighter.
David: Thank you so much for the work you put into getting this to the world!!!!!!!!!!!! Love what your doing!!!!
That was a very good & competitive fight. With both fighters showing good sportsmanship..Not surprised it was a split decision..
Adams won that pushed the pace and landed more and had more big punches and then in the 5th ADAMS wins
Is no one gonna talk about how good Adams was at the start of the fight?... Edit: the whole fight
His defense is excellent!
After a couple seconds I knew he was gon win he a real bare knuckle boxer he barely get hit
He knew his weakness's, and went in on the defense. Very smart fighting.
Adams seems like an actual boxer. In a sport of wild brawlers, it’s nice to see someone use brains, technique, and ring generalship to control a fight.
You mean using his shoulder to hit his opponent when they are coming in?
I would love to see rematch with these guys some day it was a great fight and I love the respect they give each other
The cardio of these big men is most impressive. They definitely put their time in at the gym. Both were honorable and sportsmanlike and fought hard and fair and showed good sportsmanship. Each showed what it to be a MAN. Both are winners IMO.
I like how he corrected the dude when he called John L. Sullivan, John L. Smith.
Damn the announcer is awesome, this worldwide got me💯
UFC: It's time! Boxing: Let's get ready to rumble! BKFC:It's time to knuckle up!!!! I'm loving this sport
Love when they show the tale of the tape it says Height, Age, Weight, Reach, TRUCKS.
Bkfc is the future. They have top tier talent most of the time and put on a great show. Good refs, good production.
0:30 The blonde girl tho👌😍
I see the way she was looking at you.
She hoping you come back posthumously and smash her out bare knuckle style...raw dog. What's wrong with me.
Blonde was hot for some Jake Lamotta lovin!
@@stevestiffler9120 lol
What's wrong with these fans? "It's time to knuckle up"
I was there, If the announcer wants the crowd to yell something he needs to let them know earlier.
My friend was like "It's 10:30!!" LMFAO!
@@slimmdogg420 😂😂
@@slimmdogg420 That's what's up bro hope you enjoyed it! But yea that's something fans of BKFC know though! It's kind of like "Let's get ready to rumble" with boxing and "It's time" with UFC you know but no biggy was just wondering why the fans seemed lost lol but hope you had a great time brotha I love all combat sports! The live experience is incredible!
@@solophillysfinest7378 This was only the 3rd event so nobody really knew yet. I had a blast for sure too.
Agreed..good sportsmanship always brings alot of class to a sport..
Damn that was great! I live about 45 minutes from Sam! these dudes humble, and for semi-pro fighters I figure i'd call it, they showed some great technique and stamina!
The bedazzle shoes in the intro got me 💀
That beard is like a chin protector. It’s like having a cushion on your face lol
Such a awesome fight! Two amazing athletes right there
Great fight! I had Sam as a winner, but this is one of those fights where I could see both sides. Great moment for Adams! He worked hard for that gold.
3 inch height advantage for Shewmaker? I don't see that much of a disparity...
He looked like the shorter one
Shewmaker is a liar; fake 6'3 in front of a real 6'0
Yeah there's no way there's a 3 inch difference between them, they look around the same height tbh.
Camera angles always make fighters look the same height especially when there’s only 3 inch different
Maybe the 3 inch difference they were referring to wasnt their hight.
Where were the judges at? Were they watching the same fight? Wtf.
Gentlemanly conduct on show from these boys. Fair play to you both.
hats off to both Fighters... This was a very good fight!!!..
The crowd at the end shouting USA LIKE THEY AREN'T BOTH AMERICANS.
Its also very interesting that out of a video nearly a half hour long THAT was not only what you chose to hear but also point out in comments too aswell hmmm very interesting i also think it will get you various likes based solely on your pro pic alone 😊
That CarGuy so he’s going to get likes because he’s black? That’s a weird reason to get likes, over your ethnicity lol By the looks of your picture, I’m guessing you’re white and that’s why you said a video that isn’t even 18min long, is “nearly a half hour long” But based on the odd comment, I’m sure you’ll get a few likes too though haha
KELLEN KASH couldn’t have been directed at the guy in all American flag stuff from his tattoos to his trunks could it be? Nah
I had the same thought LOL, and just in case anyone cares, I am white! This fight was just so close, I was cheering for Shewmaker but when he got knocked down I knew he was in trouble!!
Nathan Adrian lol if you’re really actualy white, when is the last time you went to a gender reveal party for a dog?
Shewmaker is all class. He is also always fun to watch too.
The energy and swagger from the announcer is just as hype as any fight on this channel.
Love this match!
Wonder if they'll get it poppin close to Philly!!!!! I want to go.
Ayyyy, I'm with you.
I don't know man. Lol, I saw the shewmaker dude, do a lot more in this fight in all 5 rounds. That one flash knockdown in the 5th round wasn't even close to enough to justify that guy winning this fight. Shewmaker won the first 4 handily. One lucky punch in the 5th is what did it huh ??Whatever.
AR15cuz BlackGunsMATTER it was a very unsatisfactory fight cuz Adams kept running away every time
@@barackobama4263 ... Yep
@@barackobama4263 ... Shewmaker won those first 4 rounds handily. That last round flash knockdown didn't really mean shit, considering the wide margin that Shewmaker SHOULD HAVE been ahead. But they took the politically correct decision. What a sham
@@shitwindsshitcity6689 ... Just look at boxing. The best fighters in the world are the Europeans(Eastern mostly). Usyk, Lomachenko, Tyson Fury etc.
2 friends. 2 class acts. RESPECT
WOW Great fight with so much respect.
Choosing Antonio Tarver was a great decision. 👍🏻
Chicago stand up baby!!! Shewmaker and Adams my to fav heavyweights
Two class acts rite there impressive great work to the both of you.
He's honest as hell. Hahaha. "I just threw 3 or 4 down the middle and it connected and I was like, thank god" hahah
REMATCH !
Shewmaker at first after the fight acted like he was such a great Sportsman, but once they announced the winner was Adams you ccouldn't find him anywhere.
Everyone get’s a little salty after a close loss. Cmon now. He probably left so he could control his emotions and didn’t want to interview and say something he’d regret when he cooled down. Even if its not that, fighting takes the hell out of you, and he could be extremely physically exhausted. Personally I know how rough it can be, and I sometimes need fresh air and water immediately after a hard training session.
Might be the best bare knuckle match I've seen thus far. A lot of the times it's very clearly going one way or the other the entire time. Not this one, I feel like until Shewmaker fell it was basically either fighter's match.
so much respect between those 2 fighters....they apologyze to eachother when they do mistakes, i ve never seen something like this in any contact sport
