Tuesday, Aug 16 2022 by BKFC Staff

BKFC 27 goes down at OVO Arena Wembley in London on Saturday afternoon, LIVE on the BKFC app. As always, there’s no shortage of intrigue heading into Saturday's action. Here are the Top 3 storylines for the event as we count down the days until BKFC’s highly anticipated European debut.

Intercontinental Battle in the Main Event 

It’s the United Kingdom against the United States in the Main Event, as Englishman Michael “Venom” Page makes his bare knuckle fighting debut in his hometown against American Mike “Platinum” Perry. Page, of course, is known around the world for his many triumphs in the Bellator MMA cage. He makes his BKFC debut after starting his MMA career with a nearly spotless record of 20-2. Perry, formerly one of the most polarizing and popular fighters in the UFC, is coming off a victory in his Squared Circle debut at BKFC Knuckle Mania 2. All eyes will be on Page and Perry as they look to make a major statement in BKFC's stacked middleweight division.

BKFC Finally Touches Down in London

After promoting highly successful events across the United States and in Mexico and Thailand, the Squared Circle finally touches down in London, one of the biggest fight cities in the world. This destination has long been a target for BKFC, and it’s finally time. We truly couldn’t ask for a better line up of proud fighters from the United Kingdom representing their roots in the fastest growing combat sports in the world.

Stacked From Top to Bottom

Although the Page-Perry Main Event showdown has rightly dominated headlines, many BKFC fans around the world are just as excited for the events preceding the headline bout. The stacked Main Card includes a welterweight battle between Connor Tierney (6-1) and Joe Elmore (2-1), a heavyweight tilt featuring Sam Shewmaker (4-3-1) and Mick Terrill (4-1), a lightweight battle between James Lilley (1-0) and Tyler Goodjohn (1-1) and MUCH more
