There have been special types of sports cruises over the years, like Chris Jericho’s Rock ‘N’ Wrestling Rager at Sea, Raiders Fan Cruise, or even WCW’s Bruise Cruise. Now, Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) is jumping aboard with its own 2027 voyage — hilariously reusing the “Bruise Cruise” name.
BKFC announced the BKFSea Bruise Cruise, set to sail from Miami to Nassau, Bahamas, for a three-day festival. While details remain sparse, cruisers can almost certainly expect a special BKFC event
somewhere along the way.
But let’s be honest — being stuck on a cruise with bare-knuckle fighters and alcohol could be a recipe for chaos. Fights might break out not just in the ring, but anywhere from the buffet line to the shuffleboard court. Combine that with cramped quarters, sun-soaked decks, and late-night parties, and things could get… bruising.
Of course, that’s also what makes it potentially a blast. Fans could rub elbows with fighters, watch unique onboard matches, and maybe even see impromptu sparring sessions. Add tropical cocktails and island excursions to the mix, and you have a bizarrely thrilling, if slightly dangerous, vacation concept.
The BKFSea Bruise Cruise might be one part boxing festival, one part wild adventure, and all parts unforgettable.
Fight fans have reacted probably how you’d expect.
This is a blunt rotation idea come to life, & im so here for it
Whoever came up with BKFSea needs a raise
That ship jail is gonna fill up quick
Lmfao what could go wrong
We got a BKFC Cruise before GTA VI
I didn’t think it could get any trashier than Carnival
Over or under 20 fights all aboard
Without doing any research, this is a REALLY bad idea on many levels.
Someone gonna get air lifted off this ship
We gonna be throwing down for 3 days on a cruise!? Sign me up!
As MMAMania’s resident cruiser, I have to say — this is a wild idea. Just this year, I saw about six fights on my way to the Dominican Republic, and those people ended up in the ship’s jail — which, honestly, I didn’t even know existed.
With the right security and a stern warning from the bosses, BKFSea Bruise Cruise could still be a blast.
I’ll pass though.
