Austin Peterson is an American mixed martial artist who made his BKFC debut in Omaha on April 18, 2025 against Josh Krejci. Peterson has mostly competed in Fury FC, a South Dakota based MMA promotion. He took a nine year hiatus in 2008 after going 5-1 and made his return in 2017 in King of the Cage.

Peterson had a second break from fighting starting in 2019 and the six year layoff came to an end in the Squared Circle. Depending on Peterson’s activity in the BKFC, you may see a rising contender in the grappler looking to test his striking in the highest level bare-knuckle promotion on the planet.
