The King Defends His Crown at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & CasinoI’m
The reign of “King” Kai Stewart faces its most dangerous threat yet.
In the main event of BKFC 87 on March 20th, BKFC European Featherweight Champion Nicco Gaffie crosses the Atlantic to challenge Montana’s own Kai Stewart for the BKFC World Featherweight Championship.
Gaffie arrives in the United States unbeaten under the BKFC banner and riding a wave of destruction. The Spanish standout has scored three knockouts across the globe, announcing himself in his promotional debut on home soil with a dazzling second-round finish.
One year later in Dubai, he shocked the world by stopping perennial contender Brendan Allen in the fourth round. This past June in Italy, he needed just one round to blitz through Jell Zeakers and capture European gold. Now, he looks to add world championship status to his résumé.
Standing in his way is a champion who has built his throne on grit, pressure, and an unbreakable will.
Stewart has ruled the 145-pound division for over two years, defending his title four times. Once a raw, hard-nosed wrestler entering the world of bare knuckle, “The King” has evolved into a relentless machine. His gas tank borders on weaponized, his mental fortitude undeniable.
From overwhelming Howard Davis with suffocating pace to dismantling Tommy Strydom in his most recent defense, Stewart’s growth has been exponential. No one has solved the puzzle. No one has dethroned the King.
On March 20th, a European champion steps onto American soil looking to conquer the throne.
But at featherweight, the crown still belongs to Kai Stewart.
