Brian “The Juice” Newman is a New Jersey heavyweight scheduled to make his BKFC debut against Mark Culp on October 9, 2026, at the Wind Creek Event Center in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. 

Representing Ten4 Training Co., Newman has participated in a BKFC tryout and holds a 4-4 amateur MMA record. Without extensive fight experience and a long layoff from his very active years of 2011-12, Newman had one further amateur MMA bout in 2025 before crossing over to bare-knuckle. All but one of his fights have ended by finish and most of his wins have come by KO so he fits right into the heavyweight division.
