Luis “Baboon” Palomino and Howard “HD” Davis collide tonight in the hugely anticipated Main Event of BKFC 70, LIVE worldwide on DAZN from the legendary Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, FL. With a combined BKFC record of 16-3-1, this one might be too close to call — but we checked in with some of BKFC’s most knowledgeable fighters for their fight night predictions.
“Super” Chad Lucanas: This is hard. I’m a fan of both guys, but I’ll go with Davis on this one.
Zach “Shark Attack” Calmus: Luis Palomino has shown us his high level of skill on many occasions, and you don’t bet against the champ. Long live the king. Luis Palomino in the third round.
Ramiro Figueroa: Luis Palomino and Howard Davis are two of the best in the division. Both are absolute warriors, but I have to take Howard Davis in this one. He’s younger and hungrier. Anything can happen in this fight game; both will be bringing the heat on fight night.
Michael “Papa G” Larrimore: I’ve got my brother HD coming out with a UD. I see the first few rounds being the most competitive, with Howard’s youth and speed carrying him in the later two.
“Royal” Ryan Reber: Man, I really like Luis Palomino! One of the greats, but I have to roll with my brother “HD” Davis! If he plays the smooth boxing game like he always does, he can win this fight!
Wanya “The Rated R Superstar” Reid: Palomino is one of the best in this sport and was the reigning champion for a while. He was a lot of new bare knuckle fighters’ idols, but like they say — idols turn to rivals in this sport. I believe “HD” will show why he’s the leader of the new school and come out victorious over Palomino.
Gabrielle Roman: I’m going with Palomino for the win.
Andrew “Legend” Strode: This is a good scrap, but I’ve got Davis for the win in a close one against the arguably the pound-for-pound BKFC king of the sport Palomino.
Zeb “CWB” Vincent: I’ve got “The Baboon.” Experience and skill will win this one.
Andrew “Golden Child” Yates: I feel Luis Palomino is a bit too much for “HD.” Luis by decision.
