Eddie Alvarez, a former UFC and Bellator champion, admitted suffering two orbital fractures shortly after his bareknuckle fight with Mike Perry. After losing the fight, Alvarez shared a post on X (formerly Twitter) confirming the fractures and expressing his love for the unpredictable nature of the sport. Perry walked away with a hard-fought victory, claiming the promotion’s inaugural “King of Violence” belt. Now 1-1 in two BKFC appearances this year, Alvarez expressed his desire to continue doing bareknuckle and asked Perry for a rematch in his hometown of Philadelphia next year.
