BKFC 7 Results: Kaleb Harris Faceplant KOs Johnavan Vistante
On a night featuring multiple UFC veterans, it was Kaleb Harris who shined the most during Bare Knuckle FC (BKFC) 7 which took place Saturday night at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Mississippi.
Harris took on Johnavan Vistante and delivered a vicious overhand right that dropped his 29-year-old opponent to the ground face-first. Vistante was attempting an uppercut, but unfortunately for him, Harris connected first.

Vistante would announce his retirement on social media soon after:
“It was a good run,” he tweeted. “Had my first professional fight at 16. I loved every minute of it. It’s took me too long to realize that the dream of my children and family are more important than mine alone. It’s been real guys. I love every single one of y’all who have supported me. Thank u”
