Uncrowned has BKFC KnuckleMania 5 live results, round-by-round updates, start time, highlights, live stream and more for the Eddie Alvarez vs. Jeremy Stephens fight card on Saturday night at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Alvarez faces Stephens in a battle of UFC veterans in the main event, while fellow UFC vet Ben Rothwell challenges for the BKFC heavyweight title in the co-headliner.
Alvarez is a former UFC and Bellator lightweight champion who is 1-1 over his first two bare-knuckle boxing appearances. “The Underground King” captured a thrilling split decision over three-time UFC title challenger Chad Mendes in his April 2023 debut before suffering a TKO loss to Mike Perry in December of the same year. A Philadelphia product through and through, Alvarez returns home to fight in his native city for the first time since a successful Bellator title defense against Roger Huerta in 2010.
Stephens is a perfect 2-0 in the bare-knuckle boxing ring since making his BKFC debut in late 2023 with a win over another UFC veteran, Jimmie Rivera. Stephens also captured a decision win over Bobby Taylor this past September. Over the course of his 14-year UFC career, Stephens fought in the sixth-most bouts in promotional history (34) and tied UFC legend Anderson Silva for the second-most knockdowns in UFC history.
Rothwell challenges BKFC heavyweight titleholder Mick Terrill for the ultimate big-boy strap in the night’s championship co-main event.
