Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship heads to Biloxi, Mississippi, this Saturday for BKFC 5.
In the main event, former Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter Jason Knight makes his promotional debut when he takes on another veteran of the Octagon in Artem Lobov.
Knight last fought back at UFC 230, where he lost to Jordan Rinaldi and extended his losing streak to four. This resulted in the 26-year-old getting cut. Meanwhile, Lobov lost to Michael Johnson in October to extend his losing streak to three. The Irish fighter then asked for his release from the promotion to sign with BKFC.
Also on the card is a bevy of former UFC fighters in Chase Sherman, Chris Leben, Isaac Vallie-Flagg and Johnny Bedford.
The pay-per-view main card starts at 9 p.m. ET, with the two prelim bouts live for free on Facebook.
