Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) will stage its ceremonial weigh ins tonight, LIVE at 7 p.m. ET in the embedded video above for the upcoming BKFC 82: “Perry vs. Stephens” boxing event, scheduled
for Sat., Oct. 4, 2025 at Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. Headlining the card will be former UFC sluggers Mike Perry and Jeremy Stephens, who throw hands for the promotion’s “King of Violence” title.
BKFC part-owner, Conor McGregor, is expected to be on hand for today’s event.
“They’re betting on the wrong horse again,” Stephens told MMA Fighting. “It’s not only the bag. It’s for opportunity and break this motherf*cker’s neck. Prove that I’m the better man. Delusions to reality. I’m the one who called this. I made this happen. This is out of my own doing. I put myself in a position to do so and here we are, right back home at bare-knuckle. I feel like they’re betting on the wrong horse.”
“I get to go in there and shut [down] a bigger, scarier guy, that everybody’s afraid of, no one’s fighting,” Stephens continued. “We’re too hot for TV sh*t. Orbitals [broken], jaws are f*cking cracking, I’m the better man that night. You should be betting on the Jeremy Stephens’ horse. I’m going to kill this dude. I get to go out there and prove everybody wrong and prove what I already know: that I’m the better man.”
