BKFC 31 results, highlights: Mike Richman claims interim light heavyweight title with comeback KO

Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) was in action on Saturday with BKFC 31, the event headlined by an interim light heavyweight championship bout between Mike Richman and Issac Doolittle.

Richman became the interim light heavyweight champion by third-round KO of Issac Doolittle, but it was not easy. Following a successful first round, the ‘Marine’ fought through adversity in the second round after Doolittle started moving forward and dropping bombs on him. Fortunately for Richman, he survived and returned fire in the third round, where he hurt Doolittle with a body shot and followed up with a sneaky right hand that sent him to the canvas.
