In the Co-Main Event, Albuquerque’s Taylor "Killa Bee" Starling returned to the win column and improved to 4-2 in her BKFC career with a hard-fought, unanimous decision victory over Jenny “Savage” Clausius of Clarksville, TN in their hotly anticipated women’s strawweight clash. Starling, a former BKFC Championship title challenger, earned redemption with her victory over Clausius, as Clausius defeated Starling in their 2019 MMA match. The judges scored Saturday’s bout 48-47, 50-45, 49-46 in favor of Starling. Clausius’ BKFC record fell to 3-3 with the loss.文章源自武享吧-https://hula8.net/upcoming/67692.html

“This is my home. I wasn’t born here, but I was (expletive) raised here, and that’s why I am the fighter I am,” Starling told the sold-out Revel Arena, adding, “I just want to keep fighting. I’ve fought a lot of demons over the last two years, so it feels good to be back in the win column.”

In the Feature Fight, Albuquerque’s Eric “Thuggy Bear” Dodson also returned to the win column in style with a 40-second KO victory over Great Falls, MT’s Dakota “MontanaDak” Highpine. Dodson, the brother of BKFC World Flyweight Champion John Dodson, is now 3-1 in the BKFC featherweight division, with all of his victories coming by first-round stoppage. Highpine is now 1-3 under the BKFC banner.

"Every time I take a little step up towards that title, so we're definitely looking to take on some contenders," Eric Dodson told the sold-out Revel Arena.

Saturday’s event featured an exciting mix of established BKFC stars and fresh-faced rookies competing for life-changing BKFC contracts from BKFC Founder/President David Feldman.

Chavez, the cousin of combat sports legend Diego Sanchez, improved to 1-0 with the win, while Manno’s record fell to 1-2.

Kaine Tomlinson Jr. of Roanoke, VA needed just 33 seconds to knock out Belen, MN’s Apostle Spencer in their welterweight fight. Tomlinson is the son of BKFC fan-favorite Kaine Tomlinson Sr., and brother to BKFC vet Zion Tomlinson.
