Joe Riggs got a tomato smashed in his face and then finished at BKFC 24 this weekend. Man, combat sports are brutal.
In the main event of BKFC 24, Lorenzo Hunt defended his light heavyweight belt by knocking out UFC veteran Joe Riggs less than two minutes into round two.
A day prior at the BKFC 24 weigh-ins, Hunt smashed a half-eaten tomato into Rigg’s face.

Hunt is currently riding a six-fight win streak in bare-knuckle boxing and is coming off two wins against former UFC fighters. Before knocking out Riggs, he defeated former Bellator middleweight champion Hector Lombard in a nasty grudge match.

Future
After his win at BKFC 24, Hunt said he wants to go up to cruiserweight and heavyweight to become a three-division champion. With the way he has been looking, it is very possible he does it.
