Mick Terrill and Lorenzo Hunt squared off in a Heavyweight title contest earlier tonight (Sat. April 27, 2024) from Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, California for BKFC: KnuckleMania 4.

Hunt came out explosively, slipping as he fired a wild combination. Terrill landed a glancing right before Hunt exploded forward a second time. Terrill burst forward with a good right hand lead, and the two met in the clinch briefly. Terrill did good work in the close distance exchanges, firing uppercuts and right hands over the top. Moments later, another uppercut from Terrill floored Hunt.

Hunt hit the canvas badly, landing directly on his wrist behind his back at a terrible angle. I’m no doctor, but it was beyond obvious that Hunt dislocated SOMETHING in his arm. Immediately, Hunt knew the fight was over, and the referee called it off.

It’s an unfortunate injury, but Terrill fought well and got the job done! After the brief feeling out process, Terrill seemed confident that he could flurry forward. Before long, he was landing hard punches-in-bunches, and the fight didn’t seem to be going all that well for Lorenzo Hunt.

There was a lot of time left, of course, but the margin for error is thin in the bare knuckle ring. Hunt’s opportunity to become BKFC triple champion is sidelined at least for the moment, but the broadcast seemed to indicate an interest in rebooking the fight at some point.

Until then, Mick Terrill remains BKFC Heavyweight king.
