Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) is going to crown a ‘King of Violence’ at BKFC 56 this Saturday. The two fighters vying for that championship are perhaps the most violent on the BKFC roster, as Mike Perry and Eddie Alvarez have agreed to share the Squared Circle in what is already a potential ‘Fight of the Night’ contender. In their most recent appearances, ‘Platinum’ earned a teeth-shattering (T)KO over Luke Rockhold and the ‘Underground King’ won a war against Chad Mendes at BKFC 41 this past April.
As expected, Perry and Alvarez promise to turn in a violent classic.
“I’m going to smash your face because I’ve been practicing boxing all this time now,” said Perry during the BKFC 56 pre-fight press conference. “I’m the best bare-knuckle boxer on the planet, period. I don’t care what anybody else has to say about it. The proof is in the pudding. I’m going to play a little game with you. We’re going to see how many times you can get up from the floor when I knock your ass down.”
“I have more knockouts than this man has fights,” said Alvarez. “I have more title rounds and more wins over more world champions than he’s ever fought. I’m more conditioned, I’m more violent — the only thing this man has on me is he’s slightly taller, he’s slower and he has better hair than I do. And that’s it.”
Finally, a trio of championship fights — Christine Ferea vs. Bec Rawlings, Kai Stewart vs. Howard Davis and Arnold Adams vs. Mick Terrill — round out the rest of the pay-per-view.
