Overview

  • Mike Perry will defend his 175-pound King of Violence championship against Jeremy Stephens in the BKFC 82 main event on October 4 at Newark’s Prudential Center.
  • Perry holds a perfect 5-0 BKFC record and last competed in a boxing match in July 2024, suffering a sixth-round TKO loss to Jake Paul.
  • Stephens enters the fight with a 3-0 bare-knuckle mark, highlighted by a stoppage of Eddie Alvarez, and recently dropped a decision to Mason Jones in a one-off UFC return.
  • BKFC president David Feldman said earlier considerations for Perry’s opponent included Darren Till and Robbie Lawler, but contractual hurdles led to securing Stephens instead.
  • The undercard is set to feature the Queen of Violence title clash between Christine Ferea and Jessica Borga, with further bouts to be announced as ticket sales open mid-August.
