LAS VEGAS, Nevada – LFA CEO Ed Soares announced today that LFA will return to southern California in November with a women’s flyweight title fight headlining LFA 54.

 

 

 

Päätapahtuma LFA 54 will bring a highly-anticipated women’s world title fight to Orange County. The headliner will see undefeated LFA women’s flyweight champion Sabina “Colombian Queen” Mazo defend her title against BJJ black belt and Brazilian stalwart Caroline “Japa” Yariwaki.

Koko pääkortille televisioidaan suorana ja valtakunnallisesti AXS television 10 p.m. JA / 7 p.m. PT.

 

 

 

“I am excited to bring the LFA women’s flyweight championship to southern California”, Totesi Soares. “This will be our sixth show in my home state of California. Sabina Mazo is excited to defend her title in her adopted hometown after she recently had an opponent pull out just a few days before her last fight. Mazo will now face top Brazilian prospect Caroline “Japa” Yariwaki at LFA 54.”

 

 

 

Liput LFA:lle 54 – Mazo vs. Yariwaki are available for purchase NOW at LFAtix.com.

 

 

 

Mazo (5-0) is the 21-year-old LFA women’s flyweight champion. The Colombian wunderkind signed with LFA when she was 19-years-old and took the MMA world by storm in 2017. She burst on to the global scene three weeks after her 20th birthday at LFA 9. This happened when she knocked out 82nd Airborne Army veteran Jamie Thorton with a jaw-dropping head kick that went viral on mainstream media and MMA media outlets alike. The Kings MMA product doubled-down in her sophomore appearance for LFA by knocking out Minnesota National Guard member Linsey Williams with a nearly identical first round head kick at LFA 23. The “Colombian Queen” finally received her crown this past April. The title winning performance came courtesy of a unanimous decision over Shannon Sinn at LFA 37, which saw Mazo provide a brilliant display boxing and clinch work, as well as her signature Muay Thai skills. The Medellín, Colombia native now looks to begin her reign as champion with another masterful performance at LFA 54.

 

 

 

Yariwaki (7-2) will be making her highly-anticipated international MMA debut after building a name for herself in her home country of Brazil. The 31-year-old is a second degree black belt in Jiu-Jitsu that just celebrated seven years of being a black belt in her country’s most famous martial art on October 7th. Her head coach is her husband Werique Silva, who is a black belt in the Chinese martial art of Sanda. Yariwaki has a purple belt in Sanda and has used her well-rounded skill set to gain a reputation as a relentless finisher in her native Brazil. The Strong Team co-founder made her professional debut in 2016 ja on ansainnut 7 wins in her career, while finishing 86% of those opponents. Yariwaki is known by her nickname “Japa”, because she was born in Brazil to Japanese descendants just like fellow Belém, Brazil native Lyoto Machida. Yariwaki will look to follow her fellow Belemense’s success in the sport by capturing LFA gold. History will also be made at LFA 54 as Mazo vs. Yariwaki will be the first women’s bout to headline and LFA event.

LAS VEGAS, Nevada – Legacy Fighting Alliance (LFA) CEO Ed Soares announced the promotion will kick off 2018 kanssa 1-2-3 punch in January with a trio of star-studded shows in California, Arizona, and Louisiana.

Päätapahtuma LFA 30 will feature the long-awaited clash between southern California kingpins and top LFA welterweights “Curtious” Curtis Millender and Nick “The Phoenix” Barnes. LFA 30 – Millender vs.. Barnes takes place Perjantai, January 12th at Costa Mesa Hall at OC Fair Grounds in Costa Mesa, Kalifornia.
The following week, LFA heads to Arizona with a fierce interim featherweight title fight in the Valley of the Sun. Päätapahtuma, former RFA title challenger and BJJ black belt Bobby “Wolfman” Moffett battles knockout sensation Thanh Le for the LFA interim featherweight title. LFA 31 – Moffett vs. Le takes place Perjantai, January 19th at the Comerica Theatre in Phoenix, Arizona.
LFA caps the month of January with a pair of title fights in southern Louisiana. Päätapahtuma, former LFA title challenger Brendan “All In” Allen faces top undefeated prospect Anthony “Fluffy” Hernandez for the vacant LFA middleweight title. Vuonna yhteistyössä pääesiintyjä, red-hot Ryan “Supermies” Spann will lock horns with UFC vet Alex “The Spartan” Nicholson for the inaugural LFA light-heavyweight title. LFA 32 – Allen vs. Hernandez takes place Perjantai, 26 tammikuu at the Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Lake Charles, Louisiana.
The entire main card of all three of these events will be televised live and nationwide on AXS TV at 9 p.m. JA / 6 p.m. PT.
“I’m excited to kick off 2018 with three straight weeks of LFA action across the country”, Totesi Soares. “Curtis Millender and Nick Barnes are coming off big wins in LFA headliners and will meet in the main event of LFA 30 in southern California on January 12th. The following week, we head to Arizona with top contenders Bobby Moffett and Thanh Le meeting for the interim featherweight title in the main event LFA 31. We finish the month with two title fights at LFA 32 in southern Louisiana. Brendan Allen faces Anthony Hernandez for the vacant middleweight title in the main event and Ryan Spann will take on Alex Nicholson for the inaugural light-heavyweight title in the co-headliner.”
Mill Ends (13-3) returns home to the building where he fought and won his first seven fights. The Orange County juggernaut is looking to build off a perfect 2017 where he won three fights, including back-to-back LFA headliners. His most recent win came via highlight reel Head Kick KO in the main event of LFA 24. Millender will meet Barnes (12-2) in a long-awaited showdown between two of southern California’s finest. The welterweight stars started their careers in the southern California regional circuit, moved on to Bellator, and will finally meet in the main event of LFA 30. Barnes, like Millender, is coming off an impressive win in an LFA headliner.
Päätapahtuma LFA 31 is a fight that casual fans and MMA purists alike are salivating over. It pits a rugged and accomplished BJJ black belt in Moffett (10-2) against one of the most dynamic strikers in all of MMA in Le (7-1) with the LFA interim featherweight title on the line. Paperilla, this is a textbook grappler vs. striker bout at its highest form. Kuitenkin, both men bring so much more to the table than what their respective martial arts backgrounds represent. Moffett, who trains out of The MMA Lab, has shown a willingness to throw down with anyone, while Le trains with BJJ wunderkind and UFC star Ryan Hall in northern Virginia.
LFA will conclude its busy month of January with a pair of title tilts in southern Louisiana. LFA standout and Louisiana native Allen (8-2) will get a second shot at LFA gold after going five rounds with current UFC star Eryk Anders for the inaugural LFA middleweight title in June. Allen quickly rebounded six weeks later with a submission win in the co-main event of LFA 18. He will face another highly-touted undefeated prospect for the title. This time it comes in the form of the northern California destroyer Hernandez (5-0). Mies tunnetaan “Fluffy” has finished everyone he has faced inside the first round.
Co-päätapahtuma LFA 32 will crown the inaugural LFA light-heavyweight champion. Spann (12-5) is a former Legacy FC title challenger that will look to capture LFA gold in front of his home crowd. “Supermies” is riding considerable momentum heading into this fight after dispatching a pair of top contenders in the first round of his last two bouts at LFA 23 and LFA 27. He will face Nicholson (10-4) who has been a man on fire since his four-fight run with the UFC ended in May. The Florida native has been a tour de force since then as he looks to make his way back. In the past two months, “The Spartan” has knocked out three quality opponents in grand total of 3 minutes and 28 sekuntia.
Syyskuussa 2016, Legacy FC and RFA officials announced that they would be merging to form the premier developmental organization in Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) alkaa tammikuussa 2017. Legacy FC and RFA have launched the careers of over 150 urheilijat, jotka ovat huippuunsa MMA kilpailemalla UFC.

MMA, kuten useimmat urheilu, on vanha sanonta, joka tehtiin suosittu näyttelijä Will Smith, joka todetaan, “Jos pysyt valmis, sinun ei tarvitse saada valmiiksi.” Tämä on yksi niistä periaatteista, jotka Oklahoma natiivi ja blue chip MMA näköpiirissä Jamal Parks elää. Parks laittaa nämä sanat viisauden täysimääräisesti voimaan viime viikolla. Vain viisi päivää pois hänen uransa viidennen MMA voiton viidessä kilpailuihin, Parks suosineet seuraava haaste esitettiin hänelle hänen jo mahtava urheilullinen ura.

Tämä haaste tuli, kun voittamaton RFA tähti Sam Toomer joutui pois ensi viikon RFA 23 kortti Costa Mesa, Kaliforniassa aiheutuneen vahingon myöhään hänen harjoitusleiri. Toomer asetettiin kohtaamaan Raoni Barcelos, joka on yksi pisimmälle mainostetut höyhenenkevyt näkymät MMA. Barcelos on poika 7. asteen jujutsu musta-punainen vyö Laerte Barcelos ja on huoliteltu suuruutensa kamppailulajeja vuodesta kaksivuotiaana. Se jätti monet ihmettelevät, jotka voisivat tehostaa ja haastaa Brasilian ihmelapsi riittävästi näin lyhyellä varoitusajalla.

Vastaus tähän kysymykseen tulee muodossa Parks, joka käytetään kilpailevat huippu-urheilijoita painissa ja näyttää jatkuvan pitkään perintö Oklahoma State painijat, jotka ovat kukoistaneet osaksi MMA tähteä. Luetteloon kuuluu Randy Couture, Johny Hendricks, Daniel Cormier, Mark Muñoz, Jake ROSHOLT, Jared Rosholt, Shane Roller, Mo Lawalia, sekä RFA eläinlääkärit Steve Mocco ja Tyler Shinn.

“Tämä on loistava tilaisuus ja olen valmis sytyttää sen ylös,” totesi innoissaan Parks, who is now set to travel to southern California this week to participate on the biggest stage of his promising MMA career.

Parks oli kolme kertaa lukion valtion paini mestari Oklahoma, opiskellessaan unionin Lukio Tulsa, Oklahoma. Sitten hän paininut rinnalla Jared Rosholt ja Shinn Oklahoma State ja tuli NCAA Division I All-American hänen vanhempi kausi. The proud Oklahoma State Cowboy then turned his attention to MMA after graduating and has seen his hand raised five times in five contests. Kuitenkin, perjantaina näkevät hänet kilpailevat kansallisessa televisiossa (AXS TV) ja kansainväliset televisioalan (Fight Network) ensimmäistä kertaa. Hän myös edessään tiukin testi uransa Barcelos.

Näet, Barcelos ei ole tyypillinen jujutsu musta vyö. Hän on myös taitava painija kun kerran oli jäsenenä Brasilian National Wrestling Team. Barcelos, joka sai jujutsu musta vyö vuotiaana 20, myös voitti Brasilian kansallinen otsikko Vapaapaini samana vuonna. Barcelos on myös tärkein koulutus kumppani UFC höyhenenkevyt kingpin Jose Aldo. Tämä sukutaulu on tarpeeksi pelottaa pois monia mahdollisia vastustajia jopa täysi harjoitusleiri valmistelemaan. Kuitenkin, Parks tuoretta pois hänen viides voitto ja äskettäin allekirjoittanut usean taistella käsitellä RFA, tuntee olevansa enemmän kuin valmis haasteeseen ja on innokas osallistumaan kaikkein high-stakes MMA bout hänen career.Parks ja Barcelos kohtaavat höyhenenkevyt bout tärkeimmistä kortin RFA 23 – Murphy vs..
