(Oktober 9, 2019) – Voormalige UFC-uitblinker Artem Lobov en Mississippi-boorling Jason Knight sal vergader in 'n herkansing van hul 2019 Kandidaat vir die stryd van die Jaar as die hoofgebeurtenis van Bare Knuckle Fighting-kampioenskap(BKFC) aksie Saterdag, November 16 woon op betaal-per-uitsig vanaf die Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Mej.

Kaartjies vir die regstreekse geleentheid word Dinsdag te koop aangebied, Oktober 15 uitsluitlik by www.bareknuckle.tv.

Die eerste geveg was een van die beste gevegte wat ek nog ooit gesien het,” het die stigter en president van BKFC, David Feldman, gesê. “Lobov en Knight is ware gladiators. Hulle illustreer waaroor BKFC gaan en dit gee die ondersteuners waarvoor hulle betaal. Ek kan nie wag om hierdie herkansing te sien nie, en ek dink dit sal selfs beter wees as die eerste een!”

“Ek het Jason 'n rematch belowe, en nou is dit tyd om my belofte na te kom,” sê Lobov. “Mag die beste man wen!”

“Ek is baie opgewonde om die hoofbyeenkoms by BKFC 9 te wees,” sê Knight. “Dit beteken vir my die wêreld om hierdie geleentheid weer voor my tuisdorpskare te kry. Hulle is my aanhangers en dit is my huis. Wat die uitslag van hierdie stryd betref, een van ons gaan slaap! Die beoordelaars sal nie in hierdie stryd nodig wees nie.”

Lobov en Knight het hul eerste keer in April in die Mississippi-kus-kolosseum gaan uitspook in die uitspeelwedstryd van BKFC 5. In 'n geveg waarin albei mans die mat geslaan het, Lobov het 'n noue eenparige besluit gewen, geskei deur net een punt op twee beoordelaars’ telkaarte. Kyk na die aksie via die BKFC YouTube-bladsy.

“Ek het gedink hy is baie keer verower,” sê Lobov, onmiddellik na die geveg. “Ek het hom drie of vier keer laat val. Hy is 'n taai, taai kind. Hy het aangehou kom en kom. Dit was 'n groot geveg.”

“Ons weet almal dat ek nie die stryd verloor het nie,” sê Knight, kort na die verlies. “Ons weet almal dat ek beroof is. Dis reg so, Ek gaan nog vanaand partytjie hou.”

Lobov het die oorwinning op Knight opgevolg deur sy mededinger te verslaan, en voormalige wêreldkampioen-bokser, Paulie Malignaggi in die BKFC 6 hoofren. Daardie kitsgebeurtenis het ongekende opbou tot 'n geveg gehad wat geëindig het met Lobov wat Malignaggi per beslissing verslaan het.. 'N 32-jarige vegter uit Rusland, Lobov het op seisoen naam gemaak 22 van Die uiteindelike Fighter as deel van Team McGregor, waar hy hom tot die eindronde van die toernooi gewerk het voordat hy teen Ryan Hall verloor het. Hy daag Cub Swanson uit tydens 'n UFC-hoofwedstryd in 2016, nadat hy oorwinnings oor Chris Avila en Alex White behaal het. Hy besit 13 professionele MMA wen en het die ervaring na BKFC-aksie oorgedra. Kyk hoe Lobov sy gunsteling vegters bespreek via die BKFC YouTube-bladsy.

Verteenwoordig sy tuisdorp D'lberville, Mej., Knight het 'n 20-6 professionele MMA-rekord sedert hy net sewentien jaar oud geword het. Hy het sy UFC-debuut in 2015 toe hy net twee weke inkom’ kennisgewing om Tatsuya Kawajiri in die gesig te staar Die uiteindelike Fighter seisoen 22 finale, 'n eenparige besluit te laat vaar. Knight het sy volgende vier UFC-wedstryde tussen Julie gewen 2016 en Mei 2017. 'N Favourite-gunsteling in die gevegsportgemeenskap van Mississippi, die uiters veelsydige Knight het in Junie ook 'n aangepaste reëlstryd in Biloxi gewen.

BILOXI, Mej. (April 6, 2019) – Former UFC veteran Artem Lobov defeated former UFC veteran and Mississippi native Jason Knight deur 'n eenparige besluit (48-47 X 2, 48-46) to win the main event of “BKFC 5: Lobov vs.. Knight” in a Fight of The Year candidate on Saturday night at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Mej. en leef op betaal-per-uitsig.

Knight started off fast, knocking down Lobov just 10 seconds in to round one. Egter, Lobov quickly popped up and came back to knock down Knight later in the first frame, again in round two, and for a third time in round three. The fourth and fifth stanzas showcased furious exchanges with both fighters leaving every ounce of themselves in the ring.

“Ek het gedink hy is baie keer verower,” sê Lobov. “Ek het hom drie of vier keer laat val. Hy is 'n taai, taai kind. Hy het aangehou kom en kom. Dit was 'n groot geveg.”

“Ons weet almal dat ek nie die stryd verloor het nie,” sê Knight. “Ons weet almal dat ek beroof is. Dis reg so, Ek gaan nog vanaand partytjie hou.”

The co-main event featured former UFC veteran Chris Leben quickly overwhelming former Bellator standout Justin Baesman with a devastating left hand, followed by a series of uppercuts that stopped Baesman just :25 in to the light heavyweight contest.

Christine Ferea scored a technical stoppage win over Britain Hart for the Police Gazette American Women’s Featherweight Bare Knuckle Championship. Ferea had Hart in trouble midway through the second round as referee Dan Miragliotta called for time to have Hart’s severely bloodied and bruised left eye checked. The ringside physician stopped the contest moments later at 1:09 in to the second round.

I’m the first woman to ever have this belt,” said Ferea. “I’m going to rep it strong and I’m super happy right now. The first round I was feeling (Hart) out. I was watching some of her footage and she can do it all. So, I just felt out the first round, touching her with the jab. And then the second round that’s when I went in and let my power go.

I would love (a fight against Bec Rawlings)!” added Ferea. “I’ve been asking for a fight with her for three fights. Ek dink ek verdien dit.”

Former BKFC heavyweight title challenger Sam Shewmaker and former UFC veteran Chase Sherman fought to a split draw (50-45 Sherman, 48-47 Shewmaker, 48-48) in a crowd-pleasing heavyweight attraction that featured spirited exchanges all the way until the final bell of the fifth round.

One BKFC lightweight tournament semi-final matchup saw Reggie Barnett nederlaag Rusty Crowder deur 'n eenparige besluit (50-44 X 3). An extremely evasive Crowder was deducted one point in the fourth round for throwing Barnett to the canvas as Barnett cruised to the victory by a wide margin.

After his win, Barnett said, “Everybody expected me and Bedford to be fighting in the championship. Johnny comes to fight. Ek kom om te veg. So, you’re going to see nothing but fireworks and I personally think it’s a main event-caliber championship fight.

In the other BKFC lightweight tournament semi-final contest Johnny bedfordgestop Abdiel Velazquez :58 in to round four. Bedford scored two knockdowns in the second round, a third in the third frame and sent Velazquez to the canvas for the fourth and final time in round four, with Velazquez electing to not get back up and continue.

Before Barnett and Crowder fought, Bedford prophesied, “I anticipate I’m going to fight Reggie Barnett in the finals. I thought that from the beginning. I think Reggie knew that from the very beginning. And I think Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship knew that from the very beginning by putting us on opposite ends of the bracket. I think it doesn’t matter who you name the number one and number two seeds, we are the two top dogs in this division.

With Barnett and Bedford winning their respective BKFC lightweight tournament semi-final bouts they will now face each other in the finals for a chance at BKFC’s first lightweight championship title.

In undercard aksie, former UFC fighter Isak Vallie-Flag scored a technical knockout victory over Randy Hedderick in a 165-pound showdown. Vallie-Flagg recorded two knockdowns in the third round and forced Hedderick to quit 1:22 in to round three due to an injured left hand.

The swing bout saw Gulfport police officer Harris Stephenson nederlaag Khalib Harris deur split besluit (50-47 Stephenson, 48-47 Harris, 49-46 Stephenson).

NEW YORK (April 2, 2019) – Bare Knuckle Fighting-kampioenskap (BKFC) hosted a media event in New York Tuesday as recent BKFC signee and former two-division boxing champion Paulie Malignaggi and former UFC standout and Conor McGregor stablemate Artem Lobov had a heated exchange and had to be separated in anticipation of a possible showdown between the two later this year.

Lobov is preparing to take on Jason Knight in die belangrikste gebeurtenis van “BKFC 5: Lobov vs.. Knight” this Saturday from the Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi and live on pay-per-view. If he is successful on Saturday night, a highly-anticipated showdown against Malignaggi looms.

“BKFC 5: Lobov vs.. Knight” sal regoor die Verenigde State en Kanada uitgesaai word, uitsluitlik betaal-per-uitsig deur MultiVision Media, Inc., op alle groot televisie verspreidingswinkels vir $29.95. It will also be available worldwide via stream to all in-home and out-of-home connected devices at FITE-TV and www.bareknuckle.tv.

Kaartjies vir “BKFC 5: Lobov vs.. Knight” are available now exclusively at www.bareknuckle.tv begin by $35.

Here is what the fighters had to say Tuesday from Mendez Boxing in Manhattan:

Paulie Malignaggi

Without disrespecting Jason Knight, because we’ll see what happens Saturday, but I think everyone here would like to see Malignaggi vs. Lobov. I see that it’s picking up traction and fans in general are talking about it.

When I get Lobov in the ring, the goal is not just to win. I have to really excel and show something more. The goal would be to hurt him bad.

Being in the gym every day gets me excited. In that way, I feel mentally reborn. I’m sure there will be tough days, but that’s par for the course. I think mentally you can find motivation that will spur you on to chase certain goals.

I started talking to David Feldman first about being involved on the broadcast aspect of BKFC. But then he threw out numbers for me to fight that got my attention. Once we got past that first part of the conversation, things started moving along and here we are.

There’s always adjustments to be made in a new discipline as far as how you’re going to throw and receive punches. We’re going to make small adjustments, but your base is your base. My base is boxing and we’re going to keep the things we want to keep.

I’ve watched some of the bare knuckle fights and there are some fundamental differences. There are some things that boxers can take advantage of. But there are also some aspects that boxers might not be used to in bare knuckle.

ARTEM LOBOV

I’m a real fighter and I’m going to fight Paulie in a real fight. I want to make money for it. He knows I’m down. If you’re a real fighter, let’s fight in the ring.

Let’s be honest, Paulie doesn’t want to fight me on the street, because he knows I’d tear him apart in seconds. But I want to prove myself in the boxing ring. That’s why I’m doing this. I want Paulie safe until the day I can finally put my hands on him.

This is the only chance he has to get a shot in on me. When we do get to fight, he won’t get a hand on me, I guarantee that.

I’m here to fight on Saturday night. I’m a true fighter. No one will ever make me quit. I don’t care about anything that Paulie can do to me.

Paulie was always the fight I wanted. It’s ‘night nightfor Jason Knight this Saturday, then it’s on to Paulie. That’s the only fight I want. He deserves to get slapped around.

Jason Knight was a top UFC fighter at one point. He’s a very tough opponent, but his strength was mixing disciplines. Just boxing me, he doesn’t have a chance.

I love the bare knuckle training. This is my game. I love the stand-up fighting. My approach is that if you want to be a good boxer, you have to box a lot. I went into all of the best gyms in Ireland and got great sparring.
