Deron Carlis has been in the fight game professionally since 2014 and holds an MMA record of 9-9. He cut his teeth as an amateur two years prior and racked up five wins while suffering just three losses at that level. At the height of his career which was his most recent MMA fight at the end of 2023, Carlis fought for the Synergy FC 170 pound title but lost there via rear naked choke. Lucky for him and for us, he will be able to focus on his striking in the BKFC which he thrives doing.
Nearly every fight that involves Carlis ends before the final bell rings and that pattern is expected to continue in the promotion. His debut is slated to take place in Kansas City on August 16, where he will face Theo Brown, a fellow debutante.
Deron Carlis is a U.S. Army Veteran and a massive fan of the second amendment. He’s also a father and husband and you can tell instantly that his family is his identity over his fighting or his military experience. Besides being active in the fight game, Carlis is a personal trainer and he has an entrepreneurial side as well. Look for Carlis to put on entertaining fights, win or lose in the BKFC Squared Circle.

Ramiro Figueroa continues his rapid climb up the rankings at BKFC 88
April 28, 2026
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.”
