HOUSTON, Texas – Legacy Ymladd Alliance (ALFf) CEO Ed Soares announced today that the LFA will return to Minnesota in March with a lightweight title fight, uchel stakes ornest ysgafn, and the return of a women’s MMA pioneer.

Prif ddigwyddiad ALFf 34 will feature the return of LFA lightweight champion Robert “Cysylltu” Watley when he defends his title against LFA #1 contender ysgafn Brandon “Mae'r Reel Highlight Dynol” Jenkins. ALFf 34 – Watley vs. Jenkins takes place Dydd Gwener, 2 Mawrth at the Minnetonka Ballroom inside the new Mystic Lake Center in Prior Lake, Minnesota. Bydd y prif cerdyn cyfan yn cael ei darlledu'n fyw ac yn genedlaethol ar y teledu AXS yn 9 p.m. A / 6 p.m. PT.
“Rwy'n teimlo'n gyffrous i ddod â'r ALFf bencampwriaeth y byd ysgafn i'r Ballroom Minnetonka y tu mewn i'r Mystic Llyn Ganolfan newydd yn ALFf 34”, Soares datganedig. “Roedd gennym bedwar digwyddiad gwych yn Mystic Llyn y llynedd. Yr wyf yn hapus i gyhoeddi y LFA a Mystic Llyn Casino cael cytundeb ar waith i gynhyrchu pedwar digwyddiad MMA ar y teledu cenedlaethol fyw yn gyfleuster o'r radd flaenaf Mystic Lake yn 2018. Mystic Lake has been a great partner and we are all looking forward to watching Robert Watley defend his lightweight title against Brandon Jenkins in Minnesota on 2 Mawrth.”
Tocynnau ar gyfer LFA 34 – Watley vs. Bydd Jenkins ar gael ar gael i'w prynu Ionawr 26 yn MysticLake.com.
Watley (9-1) is widely considered the top lightweight prospect in the world. Y dyn a elwir yn “Cysylltu” was highly regarded on the east coast regional MMA scene before signing with LFA in 2017. His fight résumé consisted of multiple regional titles and a seven-fight win streak. That earned him an immediate shot at the inaugural LFA lightweight title against the final RFA lightweight champion Thiago Moisés at LFA 17. The Maryland native shut down the RFA champion on every score card. Watley then punctuated his championship reign with a dominant TKO victory over Daryl Wilson in his first title defense at LFA 27 ym mis Tachwedd. The champ now has his sights set on picking up his tenth straight victory and second successful title defense at LFA 34.
Jenkins (11-5) enillodd ei ergyd yn ALFf aur ar ôl ennill un o ymladd mwyaf cofiadwy 2017. Y dyn a elwir yn “Mae'r Reel Highlight Dynol” added further proof to that nickname with his three round thriller against Carl Wittstock at LFA 29. Jenkins battered his foe in a highly entertaining affair that many fans and pundits considered a “Ymladd y Flwyddyn” enwebai. Mae'r fuddugoliaeth gwblhau yn llwyddiannus 2017 gyfer y swyddog diogelwch Mystic Lake, a ddechreuodd gyda buddugoliaeth TKO dros Billy Christianson yn ALFf 2. Yn ddiddorol, Daeth yr ergyd unigol y flwyddyn ar y cardiau sgôr o ALFf 20. While many felt that Jenkins had done more than enough to earn the decision, y ffefryn lleol gollwng penderfyniad hollt yn ei dref enedigol. Jenkins wasted no time reflecting on the controversial decision and quickly rebounded with his epic win over Wittstock. Nawr mae wedi ei bryd ar ALFf aur yn ALFf 34.
Mae'r cyd-brif achos o ALFf 34 will feature a battle between two of the LFA’s top lightweight contenders. Perzynski (22-9) gwneud datganiad mawr yn ei gêm gyntaf ALFf yn ALFf 20 haf diwethaf, pan stopio RFA milfeddyg Carl Wittstock trwy Cefn Naked tagu y tu mewn i'r ddau funud cyntaf y rownd agoriadol. The Minnesotan set up the submission with a barrage of strikes that thrilled his home state fans. Perzynski now looks to repeat that feat with a man who made an equally impressive LFA debut just seven days after him last summer.
Ogden (9-2) angen llai na hanner crwn yn ALFf 21 last summer to match Perzynski’s accomplishment one week earlier at LFA 20. Ogden, fel Perzynski, also used a Rear Naked Choke to defeat an RFA vet in his LFA debut. Mae'r fuddugoliaeth yn erbyn Daeth T.J. Brown a sefydlu ornest gyda dyn a wnaeth ymddangosiad cyntaf hyrwyddol bron union yr un fath. The Kansas City based fighter Ogden now meets Perzynski in the co-main event of LFA 34. The winner is looking to gain separation in a highly competitive and deep LFA lightweight division.
The main card of LFA 34 will also feature the return of women’s MMA pioneer “Machine Gun” Kelly kobold. Ar ôl bwlch blwyddyn hanner chwech ac o'r gamp, she made her return to MMA last summer at LFA 20.
kobold (18-3-2) yn un o'r merched mwyaf ei barch yn y gamp. Mae hi wedi mwynhau gyrfa MMA proffesiynol enwog sy'n dyddio'n ôl bron i un mlynedd ar bymtheg. A true pioneer for women’s MMA, Kobold returned to the sport against Christine Stanley in a bout that was ruled a draw at LFA 20. Now she is back and ready to stake a claim at the top of the LFA women’s flyweight division at LFA 34.
