Stokes felt over the moon after his successful bare-knuckle debut and said there’s no feeling like this.

When asked how he saw the opening for the fight-ending shot, Stokes said, “Yeah, it was a bit like - we was both a bit edgy to start off with. Then I threw a couple of feints and as he’s going to come in, I just closed it with a left hook. He fell right onto it, and that was all she wrote, really.”

His opponent had a lot of experience on him over several combat sports. When asked how he overcame all of that knowledge from Chope, Stokes stated,

“I mean, he’s got experience, but in a lot of different backgrounds, whereas I am just boxing. I’ve got a boxing background. So I know I can box. So I knew what I had to do tonight and I just stuck to the game plan and it’s paid off quicker than I expected.”

Tom Stokes aimed to work the body and the head and see what crumbled first. Didn’t get to implement the game plan as fully with Stokes thinking Chope walked on to a devastating shot early on.

The experienced gloved boxer enjoyed the tight dimensions of The Mighty Trigon here. Stokes feels his deep engine is a great attribute as he pushed an immediate pace in this BYB Extreme debut effort.

The West Midlands mauler tied the series 1-1 between team BYB vs team BKB during that juncture in the card at the Police Gazette International Cup. Though team BKB ended up falling short, Stokes seemed proud to represent the UK in this historic cross-promotional event.

As for what’s next, BKB and BYB are on his radar with Stokes excitedly looking towards more bare-knuckle boxing action in his future.
