Bryce Henry pulled off the ultimate troll job last night (Fri., April, 18, 2025) at BKFC Fight Night: Omaha from inside The Astro in Omaha, Nebraska, as the bareknuckle boxer coached his own cornerman on the stool in between rounds.
Friday’s Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) card produced a ton of knockouts and downright bloody action. This included back-to-back stoppages to start the event followed by four five-round brawls that painted the ring red. It left the top fighters on the card looking for a way to impress fight fans even more and leave Omaha with a memorable performance.
Henry came into this weekend with a 4-0 BKFC record, but he was coming off his first professional loss at the hands of boxer Yoenli Hernandez last October. Friday’s bareknuckle throwdown was a good chance for Henry to return to the win column and prove that he’s the next big thing for BKFC. Luckily for Henry, he was able to do his thing against co-main event counterpart Derrick Findley.
In fact, Henry’s confidence was so high on Friday night that he switched roles with his coaching staff in between the first and second rounds. Henry made his coach take a seat on the stool and proceeded to stretch his legs out. The coaching staff kept trying to talk to Henry and give him pointers, but the young fighter was too busy jokingly checking his coach for cuts.
It was a pretty cool moment that preceded a second-round knockout finish by Henry. Check out the video footage in the above player and below:
