David Feldman reacts to BKFC 70 Hollywood brawl
Former professional boxer and founder of BKFC David Feldman shared his thoughts on the altercation between heavyweight contenders Leonardo Perdomo and Steve Herelius.
In an interview, Feldman described the emotions that testosterone and weight-cutting can bring up. Although the scuffle was intense, the 54-year-old did not seem surprised and appreciated such interactions as it is essential for promoting the event.
In an interview with journalist Patricia Duong following the ceremonial weigh-ins, he said:
Look. Anytime you get two guys who got a lot of testosterone, they're cutting weight, they're excited about the fight, you know, you're gonna get that. When we get it, and it doesn't go really bad, It's good viral moments for promotion. So, I liked it. I thought it was a great, great weigh-in and I'm really happy with it.
