Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) delivered another epic night of action — complete with back-to-back, record-setting knockouts — in its hometown of Philadelphia on Friday with BKFC Fight Night: Philly at the sold-out 2300 Arena.

Friday’s event aired LIVE worldwide on The BKFC App.

Fast-rising welterweight contender Dustin “The Disciple” Pague upped his BKFC record to 4-2 with a TKO victory over Andrew Angelcor in the action-packed BKFC Fight Night: Philly Main Event. The ringside doctor called a stop to the fight at the conclusion of the second round due to a large cut on Angelcor’s forehead.

The Carlisle, PA product Pague told the buzzing 2300 Arena that he’s got what it takes to hold the BKFC World Welterweight Championship that will be defended by Austin “No Doubt” Trout at BKFC 71 on April 4 in Dubai, LIVE exclusively on DAZN.

“For those of you who haven’t followed me since the beginning, my only loss is against the guy who’s fighting for the title next month (Carlos Trinidad-Snake), and I lost because I broke my jaw 13 seconds into the first round, but I kept going and I kept fighting when 99-percent of other fighters would’ve been on the ground crying. I fought through that, and I begged the doctor to let me keep on fighting. I won’t stop fighting unless I’m put to sleep.”

Angelcor, who represents Barstow, CA, is now 4-1-1 under the BKFC banner.

Friday’s action at the rocking 2300 Arena featured two of the fastest knockouts in BKFC history.

Mays Landing, NJ welterweight Dalvin “The Hippy Disciple” Blair stopped Justin Walters in just four seconds — good for the third fastest KO in BKFC history. Just moments earlier in the preceding matchup, Green Castle, PA featherweight Elijah “The Buffalo Soldier” Harris made history in his BKFC debut with a stunning seven-second finish over Brandon “The Downs Warrior” Honsvick — good for the fifth fastest KO in BKFC history.

Walters, a Marine Corps vet fighting out of Powell County, KY, was making his BKFC debut. The Hurricane, UT product Honsvick entered his fight with a 1-0 BKFC record.

Justin Watson holds the record for the fastest KO in BKFC history for his two-second KO over Cole Ferrell at BKFC 69 in December.

Brandon “Stronghold” Conley and Cody Vidal fought to a majority draw in the BKFC Fight Night: Philly Co-Main Event. Conley was deducted a point in the third round due to an eye poke. One judge scored the fight 48-46 for Conley, while two judges scored it 47-47. Conley, who hails from Chillicothe, OH, is now 2-0-1 in his bare knuckle fighting career; the Huntington Beach, CA product Vidal is now 1-1-1.

In the BKFC Fight Night: Philly Feature Fight, fast-rising South Philadelphia light-heavyweight John “Johnny Cannoli” Garbarino smashed his way to 2-0 in his BKFC career with a 47-second KO over Rayne “The Guy On The Couch” Wells. 

“I’m hungry, and I'm ready for a five-round war,” Garbarino told the jam-packed 2300 Arena. “I work hard every single day. Bernard Hopkins told me a long time ago to stay ready so you don't have to get ready, and that's what I live."

Wells, who represents Burlington, IA, is now 0-3 under the BKFC banner.

Billings, MT’s AJ “A-Train” Craig rose to the occasion with a unanimous decision victory over 12-time BKFC vet Travis “The Animal” Thompson in their bantamweight showdown. Each fighter logged a knockdown in the fight. Two judges scored the contest 47-46 and one had it 48-45, all in favor of Craig, who climbed to 1-1 in his BKFC career with the win. The fan-favorite Thompson, who represents Pottstown, PA, is now 6-7 under the BKFC banner.

Debuting Philadelphia light-heavyweight Maurice “God of War” Horne picked himself up off the canvas in the opening stanza and rallied for a second-round KO victory over Adam “Clooney” De Freitas. Time of the stoppage was 1:08 in the second round. De Freitas, who represents Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, is now 0-2 under the BKFC banner.

Levittown, PA’s Lex “The Grizzly Bear” Ludlow edged out Connor McKenna for a split-decision victory in their heavyweight bout. Two judges (49-46, 48-47) pegged the debuting Ludlow as the winner, while one judge saw the Queens, NY fighter McKenna as the winner (48-47). McKenna is now 0-3 in his BKFC career.

Long Island, NY heavyweight Patrick Carroll turned heads in his BKFC debut, cruising to a 46-second KO over Mikey “The American Gangster” Furnier. Carroll logged a pair of knockdowns in his lightning-fast BKFC premiere. Furnier, who represents Portsmouth, OH, is now 0-4 in his BKFC career.

Cornered by BKFC superstar Eddie “The Underground King” Alvarez, Chester, PA lightweight Anthony Pagan needed just 52 seconds to win big in his BKFC debut in the opening bout of the night. Pagan dropped his opponent — the debuting Colin Reeser of North Philadelphia, PA — three times en route to the first-round TKO victory.
