This event featured the semi-final of a 8-Man Heavyweight Tournament to crown the inaugural BKFC Heavyweight Champion. The event also featured the quarter-final of a 8-Man Lightweight Tournament. A planned Lightweight Tournament Quarter-Final matchup between Reggie Barnett Jr and Josue Rivera was cancelled when Rivera no-showed the event causing Barnett Jr to advance to the semi-finals due to forfeit.

Now, the former WBC world welterweight champion returns to action, as he faces Sebastian Formella live from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on Saturday night. The bout will be a WBC/IBF welterweight title eliminator, meaning Porter will be watching the unified champ Spence vs. Danny Garcia on Nov. 21 intently if he could get past Formella first.

Gervonta Davis returns to Baltimore in empathic fashion to defend his WBA Super Featherweight World Championship against mandatory challenger Ricardo Núñez Saturday on SHOWTIME from a sold-out Royal Farms Arena.
