BKB – Post Fight Portraits

By Scott McDermott on February 20, 2015

Now that the next BKB fights have been announced – April 4th in Las Vegas, I thought it might be a good time to show some of the post fight portraits I did just outside the locker room at the last BKB fights. I have to thank all the fighters who posed for this series since it can’t be easy to have your pictures taken just seconds after stepping out of the pit. It does seem to be a lot more fun if you just won the fight, but many of them were gracious enough in defeat to still let me take a few shots. It was a night of high drama, for me as well since I was running back and forth between the pit, to shoot the fights, like the image above and then sprinting backstage between fights to do the portraits. You really can be in two places at once if you need to be. Of course a big thank you to the stellar creative team at DIRECTV that makes it all happen and invites me to their party and an ace local crew in Las Vegas that makes me look good.
