Leonardo Perdomo stopped Bear Hill just 14 seconds into the BKFC 93 main event on Friday, September 11, at Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, Florida. The heavyweight finish closed the card after BKFC 93’s tense fight-week build and moved Perdomo to 12-0 with 12 stoppages.
BKFC recorded the outcome as a technical knockout at 0:14 of Round 1. Hill left the bout with a 3-2 promotional record.
Watch BKFC’s official footage of the complete finishing sequence below:
Perdomo Forced The Stoppage With His Opening Attack
Perdomo moved Hill toward the ropes as soon as the opening exchange began. A compact series of punches put Hill on the canvas, and the referee intervened before the first minute could develop.
The result made Perdomo the first fighter in BKFC history to open a career with 12 victories and 12 stoppages. His latest finish was even faster than many of the repeated-knockdown fights seen in the sport, including Joe Lauzon’s five-knockdown BKFC return.
Perdomo immediately asked the promotion to deliver the heavyweight championship opportunity he had pursued.
“I want my title; I want my opportunity. Everyone here knows that this is my time!”
BKFC founder and president David Feldman answered in the ring. The promotion’s footage shows Feldman confirming that Perdomo will challenge heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski at KnuckleMania in Miami.
BKFC Confirmed Andrei Arlovski For KnuckleMania
Feldman linked the championship fight to BKFC’s planned return to Miami and gave Perdomo a direct answer in front of the sold-out crowd.
“The answer is absolutely, 100-percent, yes. We love Miami so much that we’re bringing KnuckleMania to Miami, and it will be Leonardo Perdomo versus Andrei Arlovski for the BKFC World Heavyweight Championship. Let’s go!”
Arlovski owns the BKFC heavyweight championship, while Perdomo entered BKFC 93 as the division’s No. 1 contender. The 14-second stoppage removed any remaining uncertainty about the next challenger and established the matchup before the event ended.
The main-event finish followed a card that also included Chino Blume’s unanimous-decision win over Caleb Joseph Avila. Perdomo’s result produced both the shortest fight of the night and the official announcement of his first BKFC title challenge.
