BKFC weigh-in
BKFC Fight Night Mohegan Sun kept its card on track with a clean weigh-in at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut, where every listed fighter made weight. The event returned to the building for its seventh show at the venue, another stop in BKFC’s run at a site that has become a regular home for the promotion. The card streamed worldwide on The BKFC App and was set to go live at 6 p.m. ET, 3 p.m. PT, giving fans a full slate after the scale check came and went without a miss.
That kind of result matters in bare-knuckle events, where the weigh-in can set the tone before the first bell. BKFC had no last-minute drama here. The promotion got a complete card, and the fighters left the stage with the work of the week done. That included the main event, where two unbeaten-style resume builders entered with real momentum and the division picture in view. In a card built around momentum, the scale delivered exactly what the promotion wanted. No fighter overshot the mark, no bout needed repair and the lineup stayed intact for a night centered on the welterweight class and a main event with championship weight behind it.
Main event
Bryce “Baba Yaga” Henry and Carlos Trinidad-Snake both weighed 165 pounds for the main event, a meeting that carries major BKFC welterweight championship implications. Henry brings a 7-0 BKFC record into the bout, which keeps him unbeaten in the promotion and puts him in line for a meaningful step forward. Trinidad-Snake enters at 7-1, and his lone loss came against former champion Austin Trout. Those records give the pairing sharp edges before the opening round even begins, with one fighter defending a perfect BKFC mark and the other trying to turn a single setback into a launch point for a title push.
The numbers on the scale told a clear story. Henry and Trinidad-Snake matched at 165, which put the main event on even footing and left the talking to the fighters themselves. Henry has built his BKFC run on consistency and unbeaten results. Trinidad-Snake has matched that pace with one defeat against elite opposition and a record that still places him squarely among the most relevant names in the division. The matchup now stands as one of the card’s central points of interest because the winner moves deeper into the welterweight conversation while the loser faces a tougher climb. That is what made the weigh-in more than a routine checkpoint. It locked in a bout with stakes that reach beyond one night at Mohegan Sun and into the shape of the division.
Undercard weights
The rest of the weigh-in stayed orderly, with the supporting fighters making their marks across several weight classes and keeping the show intact from top to bottom. Joseph Creer came in at 186 pounds and Cody Vidal at 185, a heavy pairing that settled near the same range. Joey Gambino weighed 145 pounds, while Tommy Strydom came in at 146, a close matchup that left just a single pound between them. Michael Hernandez also weighed 146, and Kris Moutinho checked in at 144.2, another narrow spread that kept their side of the card within reach of a tight fight night margin. Chris Perreault and Joe Powers each weighed 185 pounds, giving that bout a dead-even reading at the scale before they move on to fight night.
The lighter and midrange numbers also stayed close. Brandon Bushaw weighed 153 pounds, while Matt Denning came in at 154.5. Those figures rounded out a card that showed little separation on the scale and no signs of disruption before the opening bell. In BKFC, that kind of clean weigh-in matters because it keeps the schedule steady and the focus on the fights themselves. Here, the promotion got exactly that. The main event stayed in place, the undercard held together and the entire list of fighters met the requirement. With the weigh-in complete, BKFC Fight Night Mohegan Sun moved forward with its full lineup intact and a headline bout that now carries the kind of title relevance that can shape the next stretch of the welterweight picture.
