BKFC 41 prelims saw some brutal action, confirming the bias of those of us who thought it would be better than tonight’s UFC card. The knock on bare knuckle boxing is that without the gloves, it’s hard to get a clean knock out. Well Tyler Winemiller debunked that myth with his under 10 second demolition of Matthew Maestas.

BKFC 41 Tyler Winemiller vs Matthew Maestas: peep the brutality
BKFC 41 has delivered the goods so far tonight live on the free YouTube Prelims from the 1stBank Center in Denver as you can see below. Middleweight Tyler Winemiller was favored to beat Matthew Maestas but I don’t think many had 7 second KO on their predictions card.
Winemiller ripped off a flurry of right hands that hurt Maestas against the ropes. The beating continued until Maestas dropped to the mat and the referee was forced to step in and stop the fight. Watch the free replay here:
