Hollywood, FL – The BKFC 62 event in Hollywood, Florida, was highly anticipated, especially the rematch between Jared “Captain Deadpool” Warren and JoMi “The Archangel” Escoboza for the vacant BKFC World Light-Heavyweight Championship. Ahead of the fight, Escoboza sat down for an exclusive interview with BigFace from Knuckletown, sharing his thoughts and preparations for the showdown.
In the interview, Escoboza expressed his excitement and readiness for the title fight, which he had been eagerly anticipating for two years. Reflecting on their previous bout, he mentioned how he had only used one hand and fought too relaxed, which cost him the match. He acknowledged that in bare-knuckle boxing, moving backward while landing punches isn’t enough to secure a win, especially in an opponent’s hometown. This time, he was determined to bring more action, pressure, and output to the fight.
Escoboza also highlighted the advantage of having faced Warren before, stating that he was familiar with Warren’s strongest punches and felt confident that he could handle them. He emphasized his improvements since their last encounter and was ready to put on a big show, predicting a bloody match but assuring that it wouldn’t be his blood.
Despite his confidence and determination, the fight itself saw Warren dominating from the outset. Warren dropped Escoboza in each of the first three rounds, leading to a decisive victory. The judges scored the bout in favor of Warren, solidifying his BKFC record at 7-2, 1 NC, while Escoboza’s record fell to 9-2.
Warren, who entered the fight as the No. 1 contender, demonstrated his readiness and superiority, claiming the title and leaving Escoboza, ranked No. 4, to strategize his next move in the sport. The victory marked another milestone in Warren’s career, promising more electrifying performances in future fights.
Escoboza, despite the loss, remains a formidable fighter with a dedicated fan base and an unwavering commitment to the sport. As he reflects on this bout and continues to improve his skills, he will undoubtedly return to the ring with renewed vigor and determination.
For now, Captain Deadpool reigns supreme as the BKFC World Light-Heavyweight Champion, cementing his position at the top and looking forward to more thrilling encounters in the bare-knuckle arena.
