The 5-round war kicked off the card, and it was suiting of an opener. In a back-and-forth battle, both fighters left their all inside the ring and proved their mettle.
Starling was given two dominant rounds where he knocked down her opponent, Sigala, to the ground. Starling threw fewer strikes than her opponent, but landed more efficient and damaging shots. She landed 70 of her 214 shots, compared to Sigala’s 67 of 298 punches.

In a battle for the ages, both fighters showed what bare knuckle fighting is actually all about, and how much resilience it takes for a fighter to step inside the rings. A true display of heart, grit, courage, and skill was on display last night. These are the battles that fans love to see. One might find similarities between this match and UFC’s fight between Joanna Jedrzejczyk and Weili Zhang last year.
Paige VanZant finally made her much anticipated BKFC debut
’12 Gauge’ finally stepped inside the ring for her new promotion against Britain Hart. VanZant started her fight really well, troubling Hart with her rejuvenated striking. But as the rounds progressed, Hart took control of things and eventually won a unanimous decision. Nevertheless, VanZant has certainly shown promise and glimpses of her talent. One can expect only better things to come from her.
