BKFC 91 features Lorenzo Hunt facing Walter Pugliesi for the inaugural ironweight title. The card airs live tonight (Saturday, July 18) from Arena Flegrea in Naples, Italy.
Riding a two-fight winning streak, former light heavyweight and cruiserweight champion Hunt (13-2) makes his latest attempt to become a three-division champion. In his first bid for the heavyweight title in April 2024, the 43-year-old native of Elyria, Ohio, fell short by first-round TKO against Mick Terrill.
Italy’s Pugliesi (2-0) challenges for the title in his third BKFC fight. The 32-year-old contender comes off a first-round knockout victory over Karl Thompson last October, after defeating Dominik Herold by unanimous decision in his promotional debut last April.
Also on the card are a pair of BKFC European title bouts:
- Ernesto Papa (2-0) of Italy and Jindrich Byrtus (5-0) of the Czech Republic square off at cruiserweight.
- Tomas Melis (5-0) of Slovakia and Toni Estorer (5-2) of Germany battle at light heavyweight.
How to watch: Live on Prime Video starting at 1:00 p.m. ET / 10:00 a.m. PT.
