Welterweight Beasts Feast In The Main Event
Two of bare knuckle fighting’s most exciting welterweight stars – England’s Connor “Brum Town Bomber” Tierney and American Jake “The Gypsey” Lindsey – square off in the Main Event on Saturday. Tierney enters fight night as the No. 5-ranked BKFC welterweight, and Lindsey is hungry to enter the Top 5 rankings for the first time with a statement win in London. Tierney boasts a 7-1 overall record, while Lindsey is unbeaten in his first three BKFC bouts. Lindsey, a three-time UFC vet, is looking for his fourth straight stoppage in the Squared Circle, while Tierney takes aim at his sixth straight win and fourth KO.
Don’t Blink During The Co-Main Event
English fan-favorites Rico “Bon Bon” Franco (6-2, 4 KOs) and Dan “Hurricane” Breeze (1-1, 1 KO) both enter the Squared Circle for the first time on Saturday, and both hard-hitting welterweights are keen on making a first impression to remember to BKFC’s global audience. Franco has long been regarded as one of England’s top bare knuckle fighters and Breeze brings a spotless 10-0 pro boxing record into his BKFC debut. The welterweight division is one of the most stacked weight classes under the BKFC banner; Franco and Breeze are both ready to rise to the occasion and win big in this must-see Co-Main Event clash.
Fully Loaded Card From Top To Bottom
Fans are still buzzing from the two sold-out shows that BKFC promoted in the United Kingdom in 2022, and Saturday’s card features several returning favorites, including Darren Hendry (2-1, 2 KOs), David "One More" Round (2-1, 2 KOs), Lee Browne (1-0, 1 KO) and Bellator vet Terry "The Dominator" Brazier (0-1).
