Harrison “The Head Hunter” Aiken Gears Up for BKFC Co-Main Event in Albuquerque
Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) fans, mark your calendars—this Friday night, Harrison “The Head Hunter” Aiken steps into the famed Kiva Auditorium in Albuquerque, NM to face Donald Sanchez in a high-stakes Co-Main Event. Streaming LIVE worldwide on The BKFC App, BKFC Albuquerque will showcase a thrilling lineup of knockouts, rankings shakeups, and rising talents.
But all eyes will be on Aiken, a proud Georgia native and stand out SaltyMF athlete, who is looking to continue his remarkable comeback story with a dominant performance against another respected knockout artist.
Aiken’s Climb Back to the "Squared Circle"
Harrison Aiken's return to BKFC has been nothing short of inspiring. After a tough debut in 2020, "The Head Hunter" took a five-year hiatus from the sport, tackling adversities both in and out of the ring. Now, at 35 years old and two years sober, the Roswell, GA fighter is back with a vengeance.
“I had to look myself in the mirror,” says Aiken, “if I was going to pursue this sport, I had to do it with my whole heart and put everything into it.”
Aiken’s hard work has been paying off. He blasted back onto the BKFC scene in December 2024, winning an all-out war against Idrees Wasi at BKFC 69 in front of a roaring hometown crowd at Gas South Arena. Now, only some 12 weeks later, Aiken has been tapped to fight in the Co-Main event at BKFC Albaquerque, a nod from fight organizers that Aiken, even though having just returned, is still among the league's best talents.
Knockout Kings Collide in Albuquerque
Aiken’s nickname, “The Head Hunter,” speaks for itself. His goal is to put his opponents on the mat in a rather unconscious fashion; KO or bust. His opponent, Donald Sanchez, is no stranger to dishing out his own brand of devastation, either. Both fighters bring raw knockout power to this light-heavyweight showdown, so be prepared to see a true grown man fight.
With rankings implications on the line, this fight isn’t just about who gets their hand raised, for Aiken it’s a major stepping stone toward a BKFC World Title belt. “I’m here to win the belt,” Aiken proclaims, “and I know this fight is going to keep me moving in the right direction.”
