“It will be a great fight,” said BKFC founder and president David Feldman. “Chris Leben is a legend, he always comes to fight and he’s ready to throw down. Marcel Stamps is one of the most athletic fighters in BKFC, and we expect him to do some big things with the organization. This fight is a statement of how we do things at BKFC. The best fight the best!”
“I’m excited to be part of the BKFC 12 main event in Alabama,” said Leben. “Aprila 11, I will make Stamps regret he ever got into this. I will knock him out in front of his hometown fans.”
“I have my hometown supporting me and I will not let them down,” said Stamps. “Leben has nothing left. He is old and is nothing more than a name. I will retire him for good!”
Leben returns for his third BKFC fight, having previously knocked out Justin Baesman at BKFC 5, before losing a decision to Dakota Cochrane at BKFC 6. Porijeklom iz Portlanda, Oregon i sada trenira iz Chula Viste, Kalifornija, Leben je prvi put izašao na scenu u inauguralnoj sezoni The Ultimate Fighter prije nego što će postati WEC prvak u srednjoj kategoriji. Veteran sa više godina 20 UFC događaja, njegova karijera uključuje niz od pet borbi koji su doveli do izazova Andersona Silve.
Born in Brantley, Alabama and now fighting out of Birmingham, Stamps will step in for his second BKFC bout after previously knocking out Kendall Grove at BKFC 3. The 34-year-old played linebacker for Nick Saban at the University of Alabama from 2004 kroz 2008 and played in the CFL before transitioning to combat sports. Stamps competed in Bellator prior to debuting with BKFC in 2018.
