Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Paige VanZant turns in the four-ounce gloves tonight (Friday, February 5, 2021) when she regularly promotes Bareknuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC)’s last outing against PPV (Pay-per-View) against promotion, Britain Hart.
MMAmania.com will provide LIVE coverage of the PPV main map below “Knucklemania”, which starts at 21:00 ET just here. The event also features a trio of free “Prelims” periods Youtube.
The 26-year-old “12 Gauge” ended her Octagon run last year after a lead loss against Amanda Ribas and now faces a tough test in the durable Hart, who went away as a professional boxer 4-4-3 and 1-2 the “Squared Circle”. The two losses come through a split decision to UFC veteran Bec Rawlings and through the interruption of current striker Christine Ferea. The best match of the evening comes in the co-feature, which saw the Octagon flush undefeated (5-0)’s servant, Johnny Bedford, defending his Bantamweight title against former 20-3 professional boxer Dat Nguyen. In addition, Chris Leben returns to action against Quentin Henry (2-0).
