Cameron “Jumpman” VanCamp has big plans for his birthday.
He turns 31 on April 27 – the same date as KnuckleMania 4 in Los Angeles.
On Friday, VanCamp earned his first BKFC victory by knocking out Micah Terrill in the Co-Main Event of the BKFC Prospect Series in Manassas, VA. He’d like to keep the great times rolling with a quick turnaround fight in BKFC’s hugely anticipated debut in Los Angeles.
“That would be amazing. Right after my knockout, I went backstage and told (BKFC Matchmaker Nate Shook) that I wanted to be a part of that event,” the hard-hitting Indianapolos, IN fighter says.
“I’d love to be a part of that card; hopefully we can make it happen.”
VanCamp had an impressive MMA career that included a stint with the UFC before transitioning to bare knuckle fighting. Now he’s all in on BKFC.
“I want to go all the way,” he says.
“I started MMA as a wrestler, but I fell in love with striking – so much so that I didn’t even want to be on the ground. Once I started bare knuckle, I realized there’s a very unique element to it – how clean and precise you have to be with your striking. It’s also so raw.
“It speaks to me; this is where I want to have my career.”
