Recently, the fame of Bare Knuckle FC, a type of boxing without gloves, has increased considerably. After hiring athletes like Antonio Pezão, Gabriel Napao and flirt with Wanderlei Silva for a future presentation, the company announced 27-year-old Sajad Gharibi as the company's new employee. The giant does not have a debut date, but the company has already started promoting the giant for its debut. On Bare Knuckle's official Instagram account, Sajad was announced.

“A 181kg beast, Sajad Gharibi signs contract with Bare Knuckle FC”, they wrote.

The Iranian's debut should take place in 2020. The company's president, David Feldman, spoke excitedly about the organization's newest 'acquisition'. According to the 'big boss', Gharibi will be the company's big name for next year.

“This guy is making his Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship debut in early 2020. He is literally our biggest signing. I'm sure (Sajad) will stay here for a long time, this will be his home. We are planning very big things for the “Iranian Hulk”, declared the president.

Famous for publishing images on his social networks where he insists on showing off his muscles and frightening physical strength, Gharibi has never fought in a professional fight. There was always speculation about the athlete's possible adventure in contact sports, but nothing had been confirmed until then.

To publicize the hiring, the company used a somewhat controversial analogy. The company released, last Saturday, the image of the United States flags against Iran, and they wrote: 'World War III'.

With no announced opponent, the idea is that the giant should face, in his debut, an American athlete.
