UFC Veterans Have Emerged as Stars in BKFC​

Perry has emerged as one of BKFC’s biggest stars in recent years, compiling a 5-0 record within the promotion. The 15-time UFC veteran has earned victories over the likes of Thiago Alves, Eddie Alvarez, Luke Rockhold, Michael Page and Julian Lane in bare knuckle competition. More recently, the 33-year-old suffered a sixth-round stoppage loss against Jake Paul in a boxing match in July 2024.

Stephens, meanwhile, is on a three-fight winning streak under the BKFC banner, including a stoppage win against Alvarez at Knuckle Mania 5 on Jan. 25. “Lil Heathen” returned for a one-off Octagon appearance in his home state this past May, when he dropped a decision to Mason Jones at UFC Des Moines.

[Siver!]

Mike Perry vs Jeremy Stephens is actually just a pretty cool fight, don't think it needs the naff made up title.

Unless you're going to create a "King of Violence" belt for the belt system on here, then I'm in full support?!

[Uber_Noober]

This event will deliver, Perry vs Stephens will be swang and bang till someone drops.

Also, who’s Perry’s opponent?

 

[Söze Aldo]

King of Violence>BMF.

Fuck I'd better get to New Jersey for my coronation!

 

[WoozyFailGuy]

BKFC has evolved to a sport that understands its own cornball-ness. With this belt, they've cemented themselves as the "attitude era" promotion of combat sports.



I watch their events when they're on, will definitely be tuning into this one.

 

[Neck&Neck]

The real BMFs

 

[CC27]

KOV shit is an incredibly lame copy of UFC BMF but they have to do something. Till would have been much better fight, Stephens is just too small coming up, plus losing in UFC doesnt help either.

But BKFC just doesnt have anyone, they have to find any former UFC guy they can get. Also really dumb going the same night as UFC 320.

 

[HNIC215]

BKFC is corny… D leagues.

 

[Mohawk Banditó]

Prediction: Stephens gets too meatheaded and assaults Perry at the weigh-ins, then gets arrested because that's a hate crime.

 

[UWPguy]

Prediction: Stephens gets too meatheaded and assaults Perry at the weigh-ins, then gets arrested because that's a hate crime.

This is one of those VERY rare fights where Perry is smarter, or at least has better impulse control, than his opponent.

Regarding the fight, despite Stephens being a UFC FW/LW he always was super aggressive and hit super hard. One of the few smaller guys with a chance against a decent sized WW like Perry who is also stupidly violent.

 

[BullyKutta]

Stephens is cashing checks these days.

It's going to be an easy win for the face of BKFC (which is Perry, not Conor).
