BKFC 92 Scheduled for Fenway Park on Aug. 29 With Stewart vs. Gigliotti

The matchup highlights BKFC’s move into stadium spectacles under review by the City of Boston

Overview

  • BKFC announced on Monday that BKFC 92 is scheduled for Aug. 29 at Fenway Park with featherweight champion Kai Stewart set to defend his title against Massachusetts native Harry Gigliotti.
  • Stewart is presented by BKFC as an undefeated 9-0 fighter and the promotion’s No. 3 pound-for-pound fighter while Gigliotti is listed at 6-0 with five knockouts, creating a champion-versus-local narrative for the card.
  • Tickets and a presale sign-up were posted by the promotion with general on-sale set to begin Thursday, June 25 at 10 a.m.
  • BKFC and venue partners say the card will be staged on the field and billed as the first regulated bare-knuckle event in Massachusetts, but the show remains subject to final licensing approval from the City of Boston.
  • The Fenway date follows BKFC’s recent outdoor venue push — including events at Sturgis and a bullfighting arena in Spain — and organizers have suggested a possible FOX broadcast deal after co-owner Conor McGregor’s informal comments, though that distribution arrangement is not yet confirmed.
