Crystal ‘the Rugged Beauty’ Pittman is a bare-knuckle boxer who made her professional debut in the BKFC back in October of 2021. She has had a fun run in the promotion fighting various levels of competition and always showing a good account of herself win or lose. Facing competition like Jade Masson-Wong and Khortni Kamyron she has seen many different styles and is constantly improving her game. 

After moving over to the evolving Shift MMA with many BKFC standouts like David Mundell and her significant other Jared Warren, it seems like it’s all up from here for Pittman.

Pittman has been following the combat sports world since before she could even remember and she has always liked the grittier fighting styles. Before she knew the term “combat sports,” she learned a lot about fighting from her brothers who fought often on the underground scene and she was roped into being a practice dummy in their preparations for their fights in and around her early 20’s. She’s been very open about having a dysfunctional upbringing which in her words was “unbalanced and crazy.” It’s this that in part created the ‘Rugged Beauty.’

Pittman will utilize different styles when facing different opponents and she always looks to capitalize off of her opponent’s weakest points. It will be interesting to see where Pittman can go with her new gym and her motivation to succeed in a very tough sport.
