Fan favorite fighter Taylor ‘Killa Bee’ Starling has announced her much anticipated comeback to the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) in which she’ll be facing off against fellow flyweight Jenny Savage on January 27th.
Comeback Kid?
Deemed the “world’s sexiest bare knuckle boxer” by TheSun.com, this upcoming fight against Savage will mark Starling’s first fight since her defeat via KO against Christina Ferea at BKFC 28 in 2022.
Starling was overwhelmed merely minutes into her last bout against Ferea, who overpowered her from the beginning and left her in a very visible stupor until the referee decided that the bludgeoning needed to come to an end, calling the fight. That victory ensured Ferea’s record of “four straight BKFC bouts and successfully defended the title” according to MMAFighting.com.

Money’s Not the Issue
While Starling didn’t win that fight, she has certainly continued to win the hearts and attention of fans online, with her salacious OnlyFans account featuring adult content definitely contributing to that viral popularity.
It’s been reported that her “hobby” has brought in more money than her fighting (just look at Paige VanZant or Australian boxer Ebanie Bridges if you doubt that).
The Fighters
‘Killa Bee’ holds a fighting record of 3-2-0 in bare-knuckle boxing and 1-1-0 in professional MMA. Based in South Carolina, Starling quickly ascended the BKFC rankings, showcasing her prowess in the ring until she faced challenges against top-tier fighters like Christine Ferea and Jade Wong.
Despite experiencing back-to-back losses, her determination remains unshaken, with a clear focus on clinching a title.
Jenny Savage, known as “The Tennessee Gangster,” has a bare-knuckle (BK) record of 3-2-0 and a professional MMA record of 3-4-0. In the BKFC, her losses have come exclusively from Britain Hart, one of the sport’s elite fighters.
In her MMA career, Savage has faced a range of competitors, including BKFC athletes like Taylor Starling, whom she defeated via TKO, making this upcoming BKFC match even more exciting for those who have paid attention to the rivalry.
