The first knockout for Friday night’s Bare Knuckle FC took place in the second fight of the night.
After the opening bout of BKFC 12 went to a five-round decision, a bout between Robert Washington and Kenmon Evans took place in the 185-pound division. Both fighters came out swinging for the fences in the opening seconds. Washington, the shorter fighter, was having difficulty finding his range, which led to a lot of tie-ups and separations.
Just over 90 seconds into the round following another separation, Evans landed a ferocious one-two combo to put Washington to sleep, bouncing off the ring ropes.
