B-Bad with Andy Topliff


Andy Topliff is a BKB fighter and promoter of B-Bad BKB. Although most are in the opinion that BKB is a Gypsy culture, it is very wrong. Andy is in early days of getting his events mainstream. His up and coming event on October 27th 2012 is set to mark the beginning of an old sport, sprung into modern times. BKB has been around hundreds of years and we had hands- long before we had gloves. MMA was in a similar situation going back fifteen years, but that is now reported as the fastest growing sport in the World. Andy has had to over come many obstacles. it is still an issue of fights having rounds or no time limits. I believe the Gypsy community have always tried to keep a fair fight, having two refs from different families and no hitting when your opponent is on the ground, but they fight till someone can no longer fight, some have gone on for many hours. So as they are moving to main stream there are many things to consider and with Andy being old school he wants to keep an equal balance.

So what is Andys aim?

1/   To set up a governing body of which will consist of highly experienced fighters and experts in BKB.
This will in turn bring more fighters to the sport.  Make a safer environment for fighters, stop mismatched fights and most importantly stop serious injury.

2/   Hire a Doctor who would be a B-Bad employee. He would do all the pre-fight medicals, blood tests and when affordable drug tests. And be on  hand at every fight to assist with any medical problems. The Doctor would also be on hand for the public if needed. 

3/ Also run an official fight league with all fighters registering with B-Bad. Until eventually, we will have a regular roster of fighters. Who can all earn title shots and gain a career in BKB with B-Bad.

4/  Website, we will have an official website with all fighter profiles. Contact to all Board members, Up and coming events, Bkb news, shop, tickets and a forum for all BKB fans.

Andy is very dedicated to making B-Bad a great promotion for all involved. We are going to follow Andy over the next year and see how B-Bad changes in that time. I have a positive feeling and Andy is a really nice guy,  so i truly hope to see the company grow. I have added a link to Andys facebook group and profile. Please feel free to get in touch with him if you have any questions he is happy to chat
