BKFC announced the news of Sanchez’s debut fight in the promotion on Tuesday.
Sanchez was in talks with BKFC in recent weeks as he pondered his combat sports future. He last fought in MMA at Eagle FC 46, losing a unanimous decision to former UFC interim title challenger Kevin Lee.
Eagle FC doesn’t have any USA cards on its 2023 schedule as of now and it’s uncertain if Sanchez will return to the promotion. Eagle FC’s headman, Khabib Nurmagomedov, is reportedly leaving MMA entirely to focus on his personal life and his family.
Sanchez will face Austin Trout, a former WBA light middleweight boxing champion, at BKFC Knuckle Mania 3. He and Trout are both making their bare-knuckle boxing debuts.

Sanchez vs. Trout joins a solid event at BKFC KnuckleMania 3. Paige VanZant was supposed to return to BKFC on that card before suffering a recent injury.
Sanchez and Trout will be hometown fan favorites at the Albuquerque, NM event. Both fighters were born and raised in the state of New Mexico.
