"KnuckleMania VI Launch Press Conference"
The KnuckleMania VI Launch Press Conference, held at the 2300 Arena on Wednesday, December 17, 2025, is located at 2300 S. Swanson Street, Philadelphia, PA 19148. During the KnuckleMania VI Press Conference on Wednesday, December 17, 2025, David Feldman, announced that the upcoming and highly anticipated KnuckleMania VI, scheduled for Saturday, February 7, 2026, will take place at Philadelphia’s Xfinity Mobile Arena — Philadelphia’s Xfinity Mobile Arena is located at 3601 S. Broad Street, Philadelphia, PA 19148.
Earlier in the year, on January 25, 2025, BKFC’s KnuckleMania V set the record for having the most people in attendance at any local modern-day combat sporting event. This particular combat sporting event drew a crowd of 17,762 spectators.
We’re excited to announce that Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship is the first-ever promotion in the United States to be a legal, sanctioned, and regulated bare-knuckle event. Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship is based in Philadelphia and only allows established professionals in boxing, MMA, kickboxing, and Muay Thai.
Both referees and judges must have significant experience in combat sports. A variety of fighting organizations and combat sports have been misguided by stating that they are “bare-knuckle” when in fact, many of these varying organizations are required to use wraps, tape, and gauze.
However, when it comes to staying true to your words —BKFC accomplishes just that. BKFC does not allow any of its fighters to wrap their hands within one inch of the knuckle. The Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship organization, and its members have dedicated themselves to being the safest, high-energy, and highest level bare knuckle fighting organization in the world — all while leading the way to a newly recognized combat sport.
David Feldman, the president and founder of BKFC, States:
“We have a lot of fireworks that we’re going to announce in the next couple of weeks. Thank you to the fans and the fighters. This is going to be the biggest and baddest event that we’ve put on in the history of BKFC.”
“This is the baddest, purest combat sport on the face of Planet Earth. People want real, and this is as real as it gets.”
We’re excited to announce the headliner for February, 7, 2026, KnuckleMania VI will be ‘Big’ Ben Rothwell. ‘Big’ Ben Rothwell is set to defend his BKFC Heavyweight World Title against his opponent — the former UFC Heavyweight Champion Andrei ‘The Pitbull’ Arlovski.
Set to co-headline next year’s KnuckleMania VI, in Philadelphia at the Xfinity Mobile Arena on Saturday, February 7, 2026, will be BKFC’s Fighting Legend and Current Light Heavyweight Champion Lorenzo ‘The Juggernaut’ Hunt, Hunt will be battling Cuban MMA Legend Yoel ‘Soldier of God’ Romero, in a non-title matchup at a catch-weight of 210lbs. KnuckleMania VI will feature a fight between arch-rivals in a heated rivalry clash — with the #2-ranked lightweight Ben ‘The Bomber’ Bonner going up against the lightweight Tony ‘Loco’ Soto.
We want to inform you that Ben ‘The Bomber’ Bonner and Tony ‘Loco’ Soto — have both faced each other earlier this summer on June 21, 2025, in their first-ever candidate fight of the year. In a long-awaited rematch, the #1-ranked lightweight female fighters, Jade Masson-Wong and Crystal ‘The Rugged Beauty’ Pittman, will face off against one another.
We’re excited to announce that at next year’s scheduled BKFC KnuckleMania VI event at Philadelphia’s Xfinity Mobile Arena, many of Philadelphia’s favorite local fighters will go up against each other in the undercard tournament — including John Garbarino Jr., Pat Brady, Pat Sullivan, Joey Dawejko, and Lex Ludlow.
