Who is Sean Wilson? The one half of BKFC Fight Night: Miami main event
Sean Wilson's next fight will witness him return to compete under the BKFC (Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship) promotional banner. He's set to headline the BKFC Fight Night: Miami event, going up against fellow pugilist Howard Davis in a much-awaited lightweight bout.
The event is booked to transpire at the Vivo! Dolphin Mall in Miami, Florida, USA, on March 15, 2024. It'll air live on the BKFC app. Heading into the fight, the consensus is that Wilson (3-1 bare-knuckle boxing) would likely be the betting underdog against Florida's Davis (5-2-1 bare-knuckle boxing).
Fighting out of Papillion, Nebraska, USA, Wilson has extensively competed as a professional fighter, particularly in the sport of MMA. 'P-Town' boasts a professional MMA record of 40 victories, 31 defeats, and one draw. On the other hand, he's amassed a bare-knuckle boxing record comprising three wins and one loss.
Speaking of Sean Wilson's run in the top-tier bare-knuckle boxing organization, the BKFC, he made his promotional debut at BKFC 21 in September 2021 with a first-round stoppage victory over Will Shutt. Following that, 'P-Town' secured a unanimous decision victory over Rocky Long at BKFC Fight Night: Omaha in May 2022.
However, Wilson suffered a setback in his next outing inside the squared circle, as he was beaten by Kevin Croom via second-round stoppage at BKFC 33 in November 2022. Regardless, 'P-Town' returned to the win column in his next bare-knuckle boxing bout, besting Brandon Meyer by unanimous decision in May 2023.
Besides, Wilson's most recent professional combat sports contest was an MMA bout that took place at DCS 90 in January 2024. He lost via second-round stoppage owing to strikes against David McKinney.
On that note, the 41-year-old fighter now has his sights set on making a triumphant return, albeit in the bare-knuckle boxing ring, as he headlines the BKFC Fight Night: Miami event.
