HOUSTON, Texas – Legacy Veg Alliance (VVO) CEO Ed Soares announced today that the LFA will return to Minnesota in March with a lightweight title fight, 'n hoë-stakes liggewig konfrontasie, and the return of a women’s MMA pioneer.

Die hoofren van VVO 34 will feature the return of LFA lightweight champion Robert “Kontak” Watley when he defends his title against LFA #1 liggewig aanspraakmaker Brandon “Die Human Verlig Reel” Jenkins. VVO 34 – Watley vs. Jenkins takes place Vrydag, 2 Maart at the Minnetonka Ballroom inside the new Mystic Lake Center in Prior Lake, Minnesota. Die hele hoof kaart word regstreeks en landwyd op AXS TV by 9 namiddag. EN / 6 namiddag. PT.
“Ek is opgewonde om die VVO liggewig wêreldkampioenskap vir die Minnetonka Ballroom in die nuwe Mystic Lake Center by VVO 34 bring”, Verklaarde Soares. “Ons het vier fantastiese gebeure by Mystic Lake verlede jaar. Ek is bly om aan te kondig dat VVO en Mystic Lake Casino het 'n ooreenkoms in plek om te vier lewende nasionale televisie MMA gebeure produseer by Mystic Lake se wêreldklas fasiliteit in 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 Maart.”
Kaartjies vir LFA 34 – Watley vs. Jenkins sal beskikbaar te koop aangebied word Januarie 26 by MysticLake.com.
Watley (9-1) is widely considered the top lightweight prospect in the world. Die man wat bekend staan ​​as “Kontak” 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 in November. 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) verdien sy kans op VVO goud nadat hy een van die mees onvergeetlike gevegte van 2017. Die man wat bekend staan ​​as “Die Human Verlig Reel” 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 “Stryd van die Jaar” genomineerde. Die oorwinning het 'n suksesvolle 2017 vir die Mystic Lake sekuriteitswag, wat begin met 'n TKO oorwinning oor Billy Christianson by VVO 2. Interessant, die enigste terugslag van die jaar het op die telkaarte van VVO 20. While many felt that Jenkins had done more than enough to earn the decision, die plaaslike gunsteling gedaal n split besluit in sy tuisdorp. Jenkins wasted no time reflecting on the controversial decision and quickly rebounded with his epic win over Wittstock. Nou het hy sy visier op VVO goud by VVO 34.
Die mede-hoofren van VVO 34 will feature a battle between two of the LFA’s top lightweight contenders. Perzynski (22-9) het 'n groot stelling in sy VVO debuut by VVO 20 verlede somer, toe hy gestop RFA veearts Carl Wittstock via Agter Naked Choke binne die eerste twee minute van die openingsronde. 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) nodig minder as 'n halwe ronde by VVO 21 last summer to match Perzynski’s accomplishment one week earlier at LFA 20. Ogden, soos Perzynski, also used a Rear Naked Choke to defeat an RFA vet in his LFA debut. Die oorwinning het teen T.J. Brown en die opstel van 'n konfrontasie met 'n man wat 'n byna identiese promosie debuut gemaak. 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 “Masjiengeweer” Kelly Kobold. Na 'n 'n half jaar hiatus van die sport ses en, she made her return to MMA last summer at LFA 20.
Kobold (18-3-2) is een van die mees gerespekteerde vroue in die sport. Sy het dit geniet 'n roemryke professionele MMA loopbaan wat dateer byna sestien jaar. 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.

I’m happy to bring the LFA back to Minnesota for a third time this year”, Verklaarde Soares. “We have a great history of bringing exciting fights to the area, and this card will continue that tradition.

Mystic Lake has been a great partner and we look forward to bringing LFA 20 to the Mystic Lake Showroom on August 25th.”
Kaartjies vir LFA 20 – Curry vs. Barnes are available for purchase NOW at MysticLake.com.
Curry (9-1) has transformed himself from one of Minnesota’s most popular fighters to one of the sport’s most exciting and promising prospects. The man aptly known asBlitzhas decimated his last two opponents since moving up to welterweight. In werklikheid, all nine men that he has defeated, never saw the final round. Curry is able to do this by utilizing a unique blend of technical grappling and stout ground-and-pound. The 27-year-old Minnesotan now faces a huge test as he gets set to headline his first televised event at LFA 20.
Barnes (11-2) makes his LFA debut roughly twelve months after competing for the RFA welterweight world title. The Wyoming native, who now calls San Diego, California home, has taken the time since that fight to strengthen his already formidable skill set. After coming up short in that title fight to a man who was then immediately signed to the UFC, the 26-year-old known asThe Phoenixwill look to live by the famous words of S.A. Sachs: “Hope rises like a Phoenix from the ashes of shattered dreams.The Phoenix will look to rise again at LFA 20.
Die mede-hoofren van VVO 20 will feature a highly-anticipated match-up between two of the promotion’s top featherweightcontenders. Bobby “Die Wolfman” Moffett (9-2) en “Nasty” Nate Jennerman (9-2) will face off in a high-stakes affair as the two contenders jockey for position at the top of the division. The pair of featherweight standouts share more than just identical records. They both have roots in the famed RFA promotion. Moffett who trains at The MMA LAB in Glendale, Arizona competed three times for the RFA. Intussen, Jennerman who trains at Roufusport in Milwaukee, Wisconsin finished his amateur career for the promotion.
The main card of LFA 20 will also feature the return of women’s MMA pioneer KellyBlood Red” Kobold. Na 'n 'n half jaar hiatus van die sport ses en, she will take on knockout artist Christine “Kneukels” Stanley.
Kobold (18-3-1) is een van die mees gerespekteerde vroue in die sport. She has enjoyed an illustrious professional MMA career that dates back fifteen years. A true pioneer in women’s MMA, the warrior known asBlood Redhas been there moving behind the scenes, cutting a bloody path through the ages until suddenly, just like that, she up and disappeared in 2011. Now she is back at 125-pounds, ready to stake a claim at the top of the division.
Stanley (5-3) will be the woman waiting to welcome Kobold back to the sport she helped pioneer. The San Diego native has built a career around an explosive striking base that has earned her a reputation as one of the most feared knockout artists in the division. The RFA vet holds one of the fastest knockouts in combat sports. That knockout came in 5-seconds with a highlight reel Flying Spinning Hook Kick back in 2014. “Kneukels” has earned four of her five wins by way of KO or TKO and now looks to pick up the biggest win of her career at LFA 20.
