Bare Knuckle FC 6 took place last weekend with one of the most anticipated fights of the year in all of combat sports.
In the main event, former UFC fighter Artem Lobov and ex-boxing champion Paulie Malignaggi finally settled their heated rivalry inside the ring, with “The Russian Hammer” pulling off a stunning unanimous-decision win after five rounds. The fight itself might have lacked fire to observers considering all the pre-fight sizzle. But still, as is the nature of bare-knuckle boxing, both men walked away with battle wounds – even if it was just one clean punch that Lobov landed.
Legendary cutman Jacob “Stitch” Duran was in Lobov’s corner at the Florida State Fairgrounds Expo Hall in Tampa. On Monday, “Stitch” joined MMA Junkie Radio in studio and discussed his experience.
