Things are getting tense in Philly.

Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) held a press conference today (Thurs., Feb. 5, 2026) in the “City of Brotherly Love” for BKFC Knucklemania 6, which goes down this weekend Sat., Feb. 7, 2026, inside Xfinity Mobile Arena, in Philadelphia, PA.

Several main card combatants were on hand for the festivities and went face-to-face following the press conference — including the night’s marquee attraction.

BKFC Heavyweight champion Ben Rothwell stared down former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski ahead of their long-awaited trilogy bout, which marks the first time the two veterans will collide without gloves.

Saturday’s card also features a massive co-main event, as BKFC Light Heavyweight champion Lorenzo Hunt takes on BKFC Middleweight champion David Mundell in a high-stakes superfight between two reigning titleholders.

Additionally, the women’s Bantamweight division will be showcased when Jade Masson-Wong squares off against Crystal Pittman.
