Bare Knuckle FC 12: Phil Baroni out, Julian Lane in for main event vs. Thiago Alves
There’s been a change to the main event of next week’s Bare Knuckle FC 12.
The card at the Ocean Center in Daytona Beach, Calif. on Sept. 11 was scheduled to feature old-school standout Phil Baroni against former UFC title challenge Thiago Alves.
But the promotion announced Friday that Baroni has dropped out of the fight and will be replaced by former “Ultimate Fighter” contestant Julian Lane. No reason was given for Baroni’s removal from the card.
Lane is best known in MMA circles for his stint on TUF 25. But he’s competed in bare knuckle boxing the past two years, the past three in BKFC, where he’s put together a 1-2 record. His most recent fight was a decision loss to Jim Alers last October.
Alves, meanwhile, will make his BKFC debut following a long and memorable stint in the UFC. His 14-year run in the UFC peaked with a seven-fight win streak, which culminated in a shot at then-welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre at the landmark UFC 100 in 2009. GSP won the fight via unanimous decision.
