Noted MMA journalist Ariel Helwani confirmed, via David Feldman, the owner of BKFC, that ex-UFC fighter Mike Perry will be facing fellow ex-UFC fighter Thiago Alves in the main event of BKFC KnuckleMania 4 in Los Angeles on April 27.

Perry is the reigning King of Violence champion at BKFC, while Alves is the inaugural BKFC middleweight champion. This is not the first time that Perry will be fighting at KnuckleMania, as he already headlined BKFC KnuckleMania 2 in his BKFC debut against Julian Lane. Interestingly, Lane was also whom Alves fought on his BKFC debut.

American influencer Bryce Hall will also be on the card after his BKFC debut that saw him defeat Gee Perez via TKO due to a doctor stoppage at BKFC 48. Hall has been in the news after he called out Sean Strickland, the former UFC middleweight champion.

As the promotion is known to stack up its events, BKFC KnuckleMania 4 is also expected to have big names in the undercard. The naming of the event is a homage to the premier professional wrestling event of WWE, ‘WrestleMania’.

BKFC KnuckleMania 4: Cards, time, date, and venue

BKFC had already announced the biggest fight they could make with their roster as the main event of BKFC KnuckleMania 4. With Mike Perry and Thiago Alves in the main event, BKFC owner David Feldman announced a couple of more fights on the MMA Hour with Ariel Helwani.

The co-main event of the event also has a fight between ex-UFC fighters as Ben Rothwell will lock horns with Todd Duffee in a heavyweight fight. The duo was scheduled to fight the event before but had to delay the fight due to certain issues. Nonetheless, It is not the only heavyweight fight on the card.

Lorenzo Hunt, the two-division BKFC champion will be vacating his light heavyweight and cruiserweight titles to challenge the heavyweight champion, Mick Terrill. Hunt was the previous headliner of the KnuckleMania and had also fought at BKFC KnuckleMania 1.

More fights will be announced in the coming weeks, according to David Feldman. As for Bryce Hall, who is on the card, the opponent is yet to be determined. There is a high chance that it would be a relatively unknown opponent as Hall, at 24, is considered by many to have a big future with the promotion.
