BKFC 50 Is Near: Here's What You Need To Know!

It's almost time for some electrifying bare knuckle boxing excitement with BKFC 50 later this month. Fight fans are gearing up for a HUGE matchup: Chris Camozzi vs. Lorenzo Hunt.

Hunt, a Bare Knuckle Fight Championship winner, will be defending his crown against Camozzi, a kickboxing, UFC and PFL veteran. Camozzi will be trying to continue his amazing start in the promotion, two wins by knockout, and earn his first major combat sports title against Hunt, who hasn't lost a match in more than two years!

BKFC 50 takes place at 1stBank Center in Denver, Colorado at 8 p.m. on September 22. The card also includes two other fights - Keegan Vandermeer vs. Dillon Winemiller and Andrew Yates vs. Christian Torres.

More information about the fighters can be found on BKFC's website.

Camozzi, a Colorado native, is not new to the ring. His career includes a 20-fight tenure in the UFC. His MMA record, 27-15, is made up of eight submissions and seven wins by knockout. He's fought as a professional in six different countries during his career.

Camozzi, 36, signed with the UFC in 2010 at the age of 21. He already had 15 pro fights at the time, but he partly regrets joining the UFC "too early."

"I kind of grew up in the UFC, when you think about it," he said according to BKFC. "Looking back, I wasn't able to string together a lot of solid wins, and I attribute a lot of that to maturity."

Camozzi shares fight clips on his Instagram page for his fans.

"Dropping 💣💣💣," one person wrote in the comments. Another added, "Bring That Man His Belt."

Since joining BKFC in 2022, Camozzi is 2-0. He's currently preparing to enter the ring to go against Hunt, "The Juggernaut" who's 10-1.

"I'm 17 years into my career and I can't yet say I'm a World Champion, but winning that BKFC title checks that box on a career-long goal," Camozzi said. "Winning the belt means more to me than anything. I don't want to be cheesy, but I am willing to die in there - that's how bad I want it."

Hunt, 41, is possibly the most accomplished BKFC fighter, and Camozzi is about to meet him in the ring. He's number two on the BKFC Pound-for-Pound rankings and the title holder in the BKFC Cruiserweight Division as well as the BKFC Light-Heavyweight Division. BKFC 50 will have Camozzi challenging Hunt for the BKFC World Cruiserweight Championship.

Hunt, a native from Saint Augustine, Florida, brings a great deal of experience and an amazing winning streak with him into the ring. He shares fight clips on his Instagram page so his fans can keep up with his upcoming fights and training sessions.

One follower rightfully commented, "Beast mode," in the comment section of the fight clip. On another clip promoting BKFC 50, one fan wrote, "Beast! Let’s go champ," and another added, "Savage as always 🥶😤🔥."
