00:00Then the next fight coming up was of course the heavyweight title on the line
00:03between Big McTerrell and Big Ben Rothwell. The two heavyweights Terrell
00:07was the champion over from Britain having won it against Adams defending it
00:12against the juggernaut. Rothwell this guy was undefeated in the BKFC of course a
00:16long time and made that a tough dude a huge beast of a man. Had to cut 31 pounds
00:22a week of the fight he told Daryl Hawane in order to make weight and was almost a
00:25two-to-one underdog. I was amazed at that if you watched the fight last week we
00:29said Rothwell by TKO in the third if it went long we got to the fourth and the
00:33fifth maybe Rothwell get tired out but I thought that he was just too big too
00:37aggressive too powerful for Terrell to outlast him and that came true even
00:41faster than I thought. Round one Rothwell gets the first round KO. They guys
00:47are feeling out early. Rothwell axling out. I poked Terrell about 15 seconds in so
00:51it's a little bit of a break but then once they get back in there Terrell
00:54tries to go after Rothwell and you know lands a good left and then the right
00:58over the top there from Rothwell not the biggest punch not the biggest windup
01:02not a huge hook or anything like that but the guy has so much power that you see
01:07Nick Terrell the champ fall like a tree and his belt is now in the hands of Big
01:12Ben who spoke afterwards about you know having that title but you know what
01:15maybe that's not enough maybe the payday is what really you know is gonna drive
01:19him as we get into 2025 here for the BKFC.
01:22Ben, President David Feldman said that you'd make a great fit for the 25
01:27million dollar tournament. Are you open to that? Yeah! I was like thank you for
01:32asking yes I'm in good luck finding the opponents but I'm in because I if this
01:39is bare-knuckle I'm gonna win it you're gonna make me you're gonna change my
01:43life because I will win it I don't care who you put in there get the biggest
01:46best names bare-knuckle is different than anything I've done in my life I've
01:50done kickboxing boxing MMA I've done it all this is not like anything you just
01:55don't do this you just don't learn it so let's put me in it because I'm the
01:59best I am the best at this. After the fight Rompel talked in the ring there
02:05about how great the Philly crowd was how this was you know one of the best
02:08crafts he's ever fought in and how grateful he was for the BKFC he'll be a
02:12lot more grateful if he gets 15 million dollars win that tournament but but I
02:15don't even think it's fair to put him in there I don't even know a heavyweight
02:17maybe in the BKFC that can take him on and just that weight class you start
02:21throwing guys in for 175 and up how are they gonna take on Big Ben Rothwell I
02:25don't know but he is now the champion for the BKFC
