BKFC Bethlehem card, start times and how to watch Cisneros vs Petersen
Full BKFC Fight Night Bethlehem card, start time in ET, and how to watch Gregoris Cisneros vs Ryan Petersen in Pennsylvania on Friday, October 9.
BKFC Fight Night Bethlehem brings eleven bare-knuckle boxing bouts to the Wind Creek Event Center in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, on Friday, October 9. There are no titles on the line. The welterweight main event pairs a Venezuelan coming off a 109-second knockout with an American who has spent the last year and a half trading wins and losses.
Gregoris Cisneros (5-2) meets Ryan Petersen (3-2) over five two-minute rounds. Cisneros headlined his last card too, BKFC Fight Night Hammond in June, and knocked out Cameron VanCamp at 1:49 of the first round. Petersen won his first two BKFC fights, over Dan Godoy and Matt Socholotiuk, then was stopped twice in a row: by Dustin Pague in the second round of the July 2025 main event in Philadelphia, and by Enkhtur Bayartsogt in 22 seconds in November. He stopped the slide with a unanimous decision over Daniel Keepers at BKFC 89 in May.
