Camozzi ended the show with a huge right hook that landed perfectly on Deppy’s nose.

The eye-watering slow-motion footage shows Deepy getting punched in the face as a shot lands in front of Montana MMA the fighter falls to the ground in agony.

boss of BKFC Conor McGregor was incredibly impressed by Camozzi’s knockout, and praised the new world champion the next day.

Addressing X, he wrote: “WONDERFUL SURPRISING TO WIN THE WEIGHT WEIGHT GOLD WOW! Say hi to your new Heavyweight King,

“@ChrisCamozzi! Hey Chris, what can they say? Everyone’s sweet damn baby! Big congrats! BARE FISTED CHAMPION OF THE WORLD!! @bareknucklefc.”

Deepy went into the fight with three wins and was confident of a lead, but Camozzi’s crushing blow shattered both his nose and his world title dreams.

The win will come as a huge relief for Camozzi, who missed out on winning the same title last year due to a split decision loss to former champion Lorenzo Hunt at BKFC 50.

However, Hunt vacated his title after breaking his arm against heavyweight kingpin Michael Terrill in April.

As a result, Camozzi and Depy were booked to face each other for the vacant title.

“I can’t put it into words,” Camozzi said immediately afterward. “This is the best moment in my career.”

Camozzi burst onto the MMA scene in 2010 as a contestant on the eleventh season of The Ultimate Fighter.

He had won his previous bout against Victor O’Donnell, but the grueling fight left both men unable to continue on the show.

O’Donnell left with a badly broken orbital bone, while Camozzi suffered a broken jaw.

Although Camozzi was eliminated from the show, he competed in the finals, defeating James Gemmortree by unanimous decision.

In the years that followed, Camozzi traded wins and losses with varying levels of opposition and was fired and rehired three times by the UFC.

After parting ways with MMA for good in 2017, he had brief stints with Glory Kickboxing and the PFL before joining BKFC in 2022.

He is now 3-1 with the no-fingers boxing promotion.
