Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship visits Hawaii for the first time this weekend.
The promotion debuts at Honolulu’s Blaisdell Arena, a venue familiar to longtime fight fans. The Blaisdell hosted the legendary Superbrawl events back in MMA’s infancy. MMA legend Frank Shamrock and others competed in the events.
This weekend will surely be nostalgic for local fans who recall the glory days of early NHB/MMA. Bare knuckle brings some of the same excitement-plenty of blood and action and exciting knockouts.
As previously reported, Hawaiian UFC veteran Maki Pitolo debuts in the BKFC Squared Circle versus veteran Doug Coltrane.
Light heavyweight veteran Joseph Creer (5-3), who impressively defeated Taylor Bull at BKFC Michigan, takes on Kealii Kanekoa (1-0) in the co-main event. Creer will be looking for his third straight win.
The BKFC Fight Night Honolulu featured fight should also bring plenty of fireworks. MMA legend “Felony” Charles Bennett (1-3) meets another MMA veteran, Toby Misech (0-2).
Hawaii combat sports veteran Zach Zane sees action against Justin Cornell also.
