Wicked uppercut KO highlights BKFC 24: Hunt vs. Riggs

BKFC’s habit of bringing in fighters with little-to-no pro boxing experience for bare knuckle fights may not be creating a big new wave of future combat sports stars, but it’s absolutely leading to some brutal KO highlights, and this last weekend was no exception.

While former regional MMA neophyte Lorenzo Hunt defended his BKFC light heavyweight title in the BKFC against longtime journeyman and former UFC talent Joe ‘Diesel’ Riggs, the night’s viral moment belonged to a fighter way down on the undercard.

5-2 pro boxer Billy Wagner made his bare knuckle debut against 1-6 MMA fighter Jacob Kreitel earlier in the evening.
