Bare knuckle knockout! Watch Gabriel Gonzaga whup Bigfoot Silva in Tampaby Ryan HarknessOct 20, 2019, 11:48 AM UTC

FITE.TVRyan Harkness breaks down daily mixed martial arts (MMA) news, providing unique context to stories that only 15 years of obsessing over the sport can provide, having worked for FOX Sports, Yahoo! Sports, UPROXX, MSN, Bleacher Report, HDNet and CagePotato, among others, before joining MMAmania.com in 2017.

Bare Knuckle FC returned on Saturday night for their eighth show in two years, this one featuring a heavyweight showdown between UFC veterans in Tampa, Florida. Gabriel Gonzaga and Antonio Silva were both looking to prove they still had a little something left in the gas tank to give.

In the end it was Gonzaga who got his hand raised after pummeling Silva and KO’ing him 1:50 into the second round.

Here’s highlight video of the final moments of the fight, with Gonzaga teeing off on “Bigfoot.”

From another angle, you get to witness Silva’s ankle giving out on him as Gonzaga unloads. Nasty.

The loss is Silva’s sixth in a row, with five of those losses coming via knockout or technical knockout. “Bigfoot” had taken two years off to recover from a knee injury and ‘reset’ his chin, but all that recuperation time didn’t save him once “Napao” took over in the second.

Gonzaga’s recent MMA record looks almost as bad as Silva’s, with the Brazilian heavyweight going 1-5 since 2014. But following this highlight reel bareknuckle win, and we’re sure BKFC will have him back in the ring again soon. “Bigfoot” Silva? We can only hope not.

Here’s the rest of the Bare Knuckle FC 8 results from Tampa, Florida.
