This exclusive interview with BKFC world champion Dave "Redneck" Mundell offers an unfiltered look into the life, mindset, and philosophy of one of bare-knuckle fighting’s elite athletes.

Mundell opens up about his disciplined approach to training, the mental challenges of combat sports, and the sacrifices he makes to stay on top. He contrasts his unwavering focus with fighters who lose their edge due to distractions like partying before fights, emphasising his commitment to being the best.

Key Highlights
The Journey into Combat Sports

Mundell traces his path from wrestling in high school to participating in jiu-jitsu, kickboxing, MMA, and ultimately BKFC.
Despite a late start in wrestling during his senior year, he quickly excelled, realising his natural talent for combat sports.
Mental and Physical Preparation

Mundell explains the rigorous discipline he applies to his training and how it sets him apart.
He discusses weight management, choosing to maintain a higher muscle mass, and adapting his conditioning to BKFC’s fast-paced, two-minute rounds.
Adrenaline and Post-Fight Challenges

He candidly shares the emotional highs and lows of fighting, including post-fight depression, even after significant victories.
Mundell uses these moments as motivation to create generational wealth and teach his daughter life lessons about hard work and dedication.
Passions Beyond Fighting

Mundell enjoys fishing and hunting, having caught a 300lb goliath grouper and plans to participate in hunts supporting disabled veterans through the Patriot Hunts organisation.
He ties this passion to a larger purpose: raising awareness for suicide prevention and providing support for veterans.
Generational and Societal Reflections

He critiques modern attitudes that prioritise participation over striving for excellence, advocating for teaching kids resilience and the importance of winning.
Respect for the Craft

Mundell reflects on the respect between fighters while asserting that experience and preparation create a clear distinction between competitors.
This interview is a powerful glimpse into the psyche of a champion who balances fighting, family, and community outreach while staying grounded in his purpose.
