BKFC 8 Results: Gabriel Gonzaga KO’s Antonio ‘Bigfoot’ Silva (Video) By Chris Taylor - October 19, 2019 at 8:53 PM PDT // 0 Comments Trending:Ronda Rousey says UFC, Dana White ‘not exactly interested’ in booking Gina Carano fight before MVP announcement

Former UFC heavyweight title challengers Gabriel Gonzaga and Antonio ‘Bigfoot’ Silva collided in tonight’s BKFC 8 main event.

Silva and Gonzaga will clash for five 2-minute rounds, this unless someone goes down sooner.

Gabriel Gonzaga (17-12 MMA) was last seen in action at ‘Russian Cagefighting Championship 2’ in May of 2018, where he suffered a second round TKO loss to fellow veteran Alexander Emelianenko.

‘Napao’s’ most recent victory came in the squared circle in October of 2017, when he defeated Alejandro Esquilin Santiago in his professional boxing debut.

Meanwhile, Antonio ‘Bigfoot’ Silva (19-12 MMA) will also be making his Bare Knuckle Fighting debut at tonight’s BKFC 8 event.

Silva suffered a TKO loss to Rico Verhoeven in a kickboxing match in his most recent match in October of 2017.

Tonight’s main event ended in the second round after Gabriel Gonzaga unloaded a plethora of punches on Antonio Silva.

An uppercut followed by a left hook sent ‘Bigfoot’ crashing to the canvas, which ultimately spelled an end to the fight.
