6 former UFC, Bellator alums added to BKFC 31 lineup in Colorado

Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship keeps rolling into new territories.

Although bare-knuckle boxing’s origins run centuries, it’s one of the newest combat sports when it comes to regulation – and it’s still illegal in many states.

As of this coming Oct. 2, BKFC will have touched down in 10 U.S. states, as well as a handful of foreign countries. Tuesday, the promotion made state No. 11 official. BKFC 31 will take place Oct. 15 at 1STBANK Center in Broomfield, Colo. and stream on BKFC+.

Among the announced fights are six MMA notables, four from the UFC and two from Bellator. Scroll below to see which familiar faces are on the card and check out the full lineup of announced bouts at the bottom.
