DANIEL GARDNER

Daniel Gardner found his way into the BKFC Squared Circle in his home state of Utah in a very interesting way. While having some experience in MMA and running up a record of 4-2 over a three year period (2008-2011) he seemed to have put fighting aside to focus on his career and family.

Gardner is the CSO of Bucked Up, the BKFC’s official supplement/energy drink partner and one of the organization’s biggest supporters. He was looking to push himself and get back in the fight game, and what better way to do so than toeing the line in BKFC? He has made some of his training and prepwork available on his social media and has expressed that he is anxious to get in there and test himself, knowing the risks of a professional bare-knuckle fight. With a lot of wrestling experience and sheer strength you would think clinchwork and fighting inside would be an optimal gameplan, but he is working striking a lot and plans to come in and get a KO in his debut.

Debutants like this are always exciting! Salt Lake City is going to give him a big pop when he makes his walk and his co-workers along with the higher ups at BKFC are going to be excited for this matchup against Shane Fichter.

Daniel Gardner has three children and a supportive wife back home. Being part of a rapidly growing company in a competitive space lets you know that he has a drive that will push him to be the best he can be in any endeavor he undertakes. Win or lose, Gardner is going to bring a fight and entertain when he knuckles up.
