“The Crippler” is continuing his bare-knuckle boxing run.
Former UFC standout Chris Leben is set to face Marcel Stamps in the main event of Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship 12 on April 11 at Boutwell Auditorium in Birmingham, Ala., the promotion announced Friday.
BKFC 12 is the first sanctioned bare-knuckle boxing event in the state of Alabama.
In three bare-knuckle boxing appearances (two for BKFC), Leben is 2-1 with wins over Phil Baroni and Justin Baesman. He suffered his first loss last June by unanimous decision to Dakota Cochrane at BKFC 6.
