Rico DiSciullo is an undefeated BKFC featherweight from Peabody, Massachusetts, who has quickly established himself as one of the promotion’s most dangerous finishers. Since making his bare-knuckle debut in February 2025, DiSciullo has built a 4-0 BKFC record with four straight stoppage victories, including a fifth-round finish of Elijah Harris in March 2026. A compact, pressure-oriented striker, he combines sharp boxing fundamentals with a Muay Thai-influenced approach, heavy hands, and the ability to work effectively in the clinch.

DiSciullo has stated that BKFC is the ideal arena for his style. He fights with physicality, steady forward pressure, and a willingness to force exchanges rather than rely on point-fighting. While pursuing a matchup with BKFC Featherweight Champion Kai Stewart, DiSciullo pointed to his size, punching power, wrestling background, and understanding of clinch work as assets that make him a difficult matchup in the division. He's on a short list of valid challengers for the belt.

Before BKFC, DiSciullo competed for promotions including Bellator, CES MMA, Combat Zone, and Combat FC. He earned a spot on Dana White’s Contender Series in 2018, where he faced future UFC competitor Montel Jackson, then appeared on season 31 of The Ultimate Fighter. Representing Team Conor McGregor, he earned the team’s first win of the season before being eliminated in the semifinal round by Cody Gibson.
