Event Context
BKFC 94 took place at AO Arena in Manchester, with Darren Till defeating Yoel Romero in the five-round main event. Joe Lister also recovered from a knockdown to stop Harry Bray in Round 2. The card’s bare-knuckle rules make the recorded distance and stoppage details part of the event context.
The judges’ verdict is part of the result, not a detail to be inferred from the headline. The reported scores show whether the panel agreed or whether at least one judge saw the contest differently. Where the scores are available, they are included with the official decision so readers can distinguish a unanimous result from a split or majority verdict. A decision also means the bout reached its scheduled conclusion; it should not be described as a stoppage.
