Matt Socholotiuk is a Canadian mixed martial artist training out of Tristar Quebec. Training out of a gym like Tristar, Socholotiuk no doubt has gotten some great looks with training partners and coaches Firas Zahabi and Olivier Reynaud. Upon entering the BKFC, Socholotiuk holds a pro record of 2-3-0 but has never lost a fight by T/KO. With a deep passion for boxing, he jumped at the opportunity to be a part of the first ever BKFC event in his home country of Canada where he took on Adam De Freitas.

His chin has been put to the test on more than one occasion in the Squared Circle and so far it has passed with some fight of the night type performances. With a refusal to go down and stay there, Socholotiuk is a handful for anyone who he toes the line against.

Outside of fighting, his second passion or perhaps first, is his German Shepard, Bill who trains what seems like every day with the middleweight. He has been quiet on social media since 2022 but looks to have put on a lot of muscle and dialed in his striking in preparation for higher levels of competition in the BKFC.

The Denver fighter is now 5-1 with 3 straight wins after his Co-Main Event victoryRamiro Figueroa is riding high after earning the biggest win of his career at BKFC 88. In the Co-Main Event at the sold-out National Western Center in Figueroa’s hometown of Denver, he notched his third straight victory at the expense of former BKFC World Champion Elvin “El Bandido” Brito. Figueroa is now 5-1 under the BKFC banner. “(Brito) is a legend. Everybody speaks highly of his accomplishments in bare knuckle fighting, so this was the next step up that I had to rise to,” the 24-year-old Figueroa says. Mission accomplished. In his last three trips to the Squared Circle, Figueroa has taken out the former BKFC World Champion Brito, the previously undefeated Dalvin “Hippy Disciple” Blair and former BKFC World Championship challenger Howard “HD” Davis. What’s next? Figueroa hopes his next fight will be for the BKFC World Lightweight Championship, or he’d also be more than happy to fight for an interim belt, if necessary. Regardless of what’s on the immediate horizon, Figueroa agrees that he’s at the forefront of the hard-charging next wave of BKFC superstars. “I’m 24, and I believe my best is still years away, when I’m in my prime. If I can secure the belt now, I still believe that I’ll be dominant for as long as I want,” he says. “I don’t understand the full game of bare knuckle yet, but I’m learning more and more with every single fight. I believe that the sooner I win the Championship, it’s going to be even better for me, and I’ll hold the belt for many years.”
