It's BKFC 65 Fight Week in Salt Lake City!

Sunday, Sep 01 2024 by BKFC Staff

Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, the world’s fastest growing and most exciting combat sports promotion, returns to Salt Lake City, UT this week with BKFC 65 at the iconic Maverik Center on Friday.

All the action, as always, streams LIVE worldwide on The BKFC App.

History will be made in Friday’s Main Event as Christine “Misfit” Ferea, the most dominant female fighter in BKFC history, looks to defend her BKFC World Women’s Flyweight Championship for a record fourth time against her toughest challenge yet, Jade “Evil Smile” Masson-Wong, the No. 1 contender in the division.

Ferea’s reign of dominance in the BKFC Squared Circle is unparalleled. She’s won six straight fights – the longest winning streak for any female combatant in BKFC history. Ferea also holds the record for most stoppage victories among female BKFC fighters, with six. But Masson-Wong is certainly no stepping stone. The upset-minded Canadian is 3-1 on the strength of back-to-back victories, and hungry to bring the belt home to Montreal. 

Major rankings implications in the stacked BKFC lightweight division are on the line in Friday’s Co-Main Event as Bobby “ODB” Taylor locks horns with Jeremy “Lil’ Heathen” Stephens. The battle-tested Taylor is the No. 5 contender in the 155-pound division, while the 34-time UFC vet Stephens is looking to break into the rankings with a second straight finish to kick off his bare knuckle career. Taylor’s 6-2 BKFC record includes four wins by stoppage.

Friday's Feature Fight sees Trever Bradshaw battle UFC vet Drako "The Great Drakolini" Rodriguez, with both hard-hitting lightweights trying to smash their way to 2-0 with a second straight finish in the Squared Circle.

Tune in Friday evening to The BKFC App for a full slate of can’t-miss, bare knuckle action, LIVE from the world-class Maverik Center.
