Background
Former UFC fighter Jimmie Rivera is expected to take part in the main event against two-time Bellator Featherweight World Champion Daniel Straus.
The main event was scheduled to be a women's bantamweight bout with former WBO female featherweight boxing champion Heather Hardy in her debut taking on BKFC Women's Flyweight Champion Christine Ferea. However, due to an injury, the bout has been postponed. This pushed the Rivera vs. Straus bout to the main event.
Former UFC fighter Michael Trizano and former Bellator MMA fighter Derek Campos were set to face each other in their BKFC debuts. However, in early May 2024, the bout was removed due to unknown reasons.
Former Bellator MMA lightweight title contender Rick Hawn is expected to make his debut at this event as well. Former UFC fighter Louis Gaudinot was expected to face Sean Santella, but the bout was removed for unknown reasons on April 24, 2024.
Saturday’s must-see action features an exciting mix of world-class bare knuckle fighters and a number of hungry prospects from across New England.
