Eddie Alvarez: The Return of “The Underground King”

With a storied career spanning titles in UFC, Bellator, BodogFIGHT, Reality Fighting, and FIGHT MATRIX, Eddie Alvarez (30-8, 2 NC MMA, 1-1 BKFC) is no stranger to the spotlight. Joining BKFC in 2023, Alvarez engaged in a ferocious battle against Chad Mendes and suffered a setback against Mike Perry in December while contending for the “King of Violence” title.

The 41-year-old is eager to rekindle the flames of triumph in front of a hometown crowd—a stage he last graced as a headliner in 2010. While his high-profile clash against Conor McGregor at Madison Square Garden left a bitter taste, Alvarez is resolute in rewriting his Philadelphia chapter.

“I owe it to my Philly fans to deliver,” Alvarez shared with MMA Fighting. “Madison Square Garden was my shot, but I detested my performance. There’s only one venue more iconic to me than MSG, and that’s Wells Fargo in Philadelphia.”

Recalling his global adventures in combat—from Russia to Japan—Alvarez expressed an unwavering belief in his connection to his local fanbase: “When I step into venues close to home, I feel invincible. The spirit of Philly fans fuels me, and I’m ready to shine brighter than ever on January 25.”

Jeremy Stephens: “Lil Heathen’s” Quest for Glory

Jeremy Stephens (29-21, 1 NC MMA, 2-0 BKFC), a name etched into UFC history with 18 knockdowns—the second-most ever—is bringing his ferocity to the BKFC arena. Undefeated in his BKFC journey, having bested Jimmie Rivera and Bobby Taylor, Stephens is embracing the challenge of battling Alvarez in his adversary’s backyard.
