Bryce Hall has booked his Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship debut. The influencer will face off against Gee Perez on August 11 at BKFC 48 in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Hall announced the news in a video on his Instagram page Thursday, confirming that the matchup was now official.
“IT’S OFFICIAL‼️” the caption read. “Bryce Hall has signed on the dotted line to face Gee Perez August 11th in Albuquerque!”
Hall isn’t necessarily new to boxing, though his experience is minimal. He previously fought fellow influencer Austin McBroom though it ended in Hall being knocked out in the third round.
Since, he’s left the ring to try his luck in acting. Most recently, he starred in the upcoming horror film Skill House, which also features BKFC star Paige VanZant.
While new to the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, the influencer is familiar with his foe.
In fact, Bryce Hall was slapped by his upcoming opponent ahead of BKFC 45, which offered the perfect tease for the now-official showdown. Gee Perez would go on to win his fight in that event to improve to 3-0 overall.
Can Perez stay undefeated, or will Hall pull off the upset?
Fans have been quick to offer their predictions on social media. Most don’t have much confidence in the newcomer.
One follower wrote, “This kid is going to get seriously hurt and thinks it’s a joke.”
Another said, “Bryce Hall is going to get killed in there.”
This fan commented, “He just signed his death sentence.”
Bryce Hall is just the latest celebrity shifting over into the world of boxing. It hasn’t always ended well for others, but we’ll see if he’s able to shock the world in his BKFC debut.
