Ingressos para LFA 39 – Heinisch vs.. Checco está disponível para compra AGORA em TicketsWest.com.
Heinisch (9-1) é amplamente considerado um dos maiores prospectos de peso médio do mundo. O bicampeão estadual de wrestling do Colorado, da Ponderosa High School, impressionou muitos em sua estreia no LFA no ano passado, que serviu como evento principal do LFA 10. “O Furacão” derrotou seu veterano adversário brasileiro Lucas Rota em menos de uma rodada e finalizou com um raro Ude-Garami (Keylock) de Kesa-Gatame (Cachecol). A vitória por finalização espalhafatosa lhe rendeu uma chance pelo título dos médios do LFA em setembro no LFA 22. As coisas não correram como ele planejou naquela noite, mas o jogador de 29 anos rapidamente se recuperou com um nocaute com um soco no carretel de destaque em janeiro. Heinisch foi capaz de mostrar sua mão direita grande e atacante subestimada que eliminou Daniel Madrid no co-evento principal da LFA 31. A vitória rendeu a ele uma segunda chance de ouro na LFA diante de sua torcida na LFA 39.
Checco (10-2) é um brasileiro poderoso e perigoso faixa-preta de Jiu-Jitsu conhecido como “Zangief”. Isso se deve ao seu moicano característico e habilidade de finalização de cair o queixo, muito parecido com o popular personagem de videogame Street Fighter de mesmo nome. Todas as dez vitórias de Checco vieram por KO, QUEM, ou submissão. Isso inclui três acabamentos de carretel de destaque sob o banner RFA. O primeiro foi um nocaute arrebatador de 74 segundos em Joseph Henle no co-evento principal da RFA 23 no sul da Califórnia. A segunda foi uma bela finalização Triangle-Armbar de Mike Jasper na RFA 31, que aconteceu no centro de Las Vegas. O terceiro foi uma vitória de retorno via Heel Hook contra o amigo próximo de Heinisch e parceiro de treino Adam Stroup no co-evento principal da RFA 43. Checco também traz a experiência de duas lutas pelo título da RFA. Ele vai precisar disso quando enfrentar um Heinisch extra-motivado pelo ouro LFA na LFA 39.

Ingressos para LFA 38 – Hughes vs. Greene are available for purchase NOW at CageTix.com.
Hughes (8-1) is widely considered the top heavyweight prospect in the world. He solidified this claim by taking the LFA heavyweight title from Richard Odoms via Unanimous Decision at LFA 26 em Novembro. The proud Ohio native also happens to train alongside the top heavyweight fighter in the world. That would be none other than UFC heavyweight champion and fellow Ohio native Stipe Miocic. The two heavyweight champions, Hughes and Miocic, were featured training together in Episode 1 of the UFC 220 Embedded: Vlog Series. Hughes played a pivotal role in helping Miocic defeat Francis Ngannou, which broke the record for most consecutive title defenses for the UFC heavyweight championship. Now Miocic looks to return the favor by helping Hughes set the record for most title defenses for the LFA heavyweight championship when he faces Greene at LFA 38.
Greene (5-1) is a a towering heavyweight, measuring 6’7and weighing 265-pounds. His formidable size, fearsome fighting style, and affable personality have helped make the man known asMoe The Piratea fan favorite in both MMA and professional kickboxing, where he made a name for himself competing in GLORY. Greene’s most memorable moment in GLORY came at GLORY 21 when he flattened Ashley Epps with a left hook in the first round. Greene later showcased his devastating striking skills in MMA at Legacy FC 60 when he knocked out Zach Thumb with a knee in just 25 segundos. Recentemente, Greene has been grabbing headlines with his impressive grappling skills as he has won his last two MMA bouts via first round submission. That includes a Triangle Choke submission victory over the previously undefeated Bellator vet Jermaine McDermott last summer at LFA 19.
The co-main event of LFA 38 will feature the return of one of Bevon Lewis (4-0). The Jackson Wink MMA product burst on to the MMA scene last year with an impressive LFA debut win over three-time NCAA Division I All-American wrestler Sonny Yohn at LFA 10. Lewis showed poise, adaptability, and a dynamic skill set against the decorated wrestler that drew comparisons to the fighting abilities of his teammate Jon Jones.
Lewis returned on the eighth episode of Dana White’s Contender Series last summer with another breakthrough performance. This time he stopped undefeated TUF 23 alum Elias Urbina via TKO in the second round. This drew the praise of the UFC President himself as Dana White gave him rave reviews and said, “Bevon Lewis is now 4-0. He is a young guy, he’s 26-years-old, and I think he has a ton of talent. Both the matchmakers think this guy is special and can be something. What we’re gonna do is we’re gonna take this kid and put him in our developmental league. We have a place where we develop young up-and-coming fighters and we’re gonna put him there. So we’re gonna bring him in. He’s not getting a contract here, we’re gonna put him in this developmental league. We love this kid.
In the immortal words of pro wrestling icon Ric Flair, “To be the man, you gotta beat the manand that is exactly what CollinYoung Huck” Huckbody (3-1) will be looking to do at LFA 38. He is the man tabbed to face Lewis in the co-main event. The 23-year-old Minnesotan will look to utilize his home crowd advantage and considerable wrestling chops to derail the wave amount of momentum and attention that Lewis is currently receiving and enjoying. If successful on April 27th, Huckbody will be the man everyone is talking about next.
