Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship returns to Mohegan Sun on Saturday, December 20th, with a heavyweight main event built for violence — PARKER PORTER vs ANTHONY GARRETT. Two seasoned heavyweights. No gloves. All heart.
Parker Porter brings nearly two decades of fight experience into the Squared Circle. A professional mixed martial artist since 2007, the New England native has tested himself against elite competition, including Jon Jones, Gabriel Gonzaga, Chase Sherman, Jailton Almeida, and Braxton Smith. A former UFC heavyweight with a 14–9 record, Porter is known for fighting anyone, anywhere. Well-rounded and battle-tested, expect him to take his time early, make his reads, and then march forward looking for a full-on firefight — because in BKFC, it’s all hands. Outside the ring, Porter is the owner of Heavy Hitters Club in New Britain, Connecticut, a proud father, husband, and a true New England grinder.
Standing across from him is Anthony Garrett, a pure finisher with an aggressive, come-forward style tailor-made for bare knuckle. Garrett is a veteran of MMA, boxing, Muay Thai, and kickboxing, with experience in Bellator and LFA, and has spent his entire professional career at heavyweight. Fighting professionally since 2016 — and as an amateur since 2012 — Garrett has nothing but finishes on his record, win or lose. As the head trainer at TITLE Boxing Club Dallas Uptown, he brings relentless pressure, power, and the mindset of a man who expects the fight to end decisively.
Two proud fathers. Two heavyweight enforcers. One Squared Circle.
