Tickets for LFA 34 – Watley vs. Jenkins verður í boði í boði fyrir kaupin Janúar 26 á MysticLake.com.
Watley (9-1) is widely considered the top lightweight prospect in the world. The Man Þekktur eins “Viltu samband við” 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 í nóvember. 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) unnið skot hans í LFA gull eftir að vinna einn af eftirminnilegri berst frá 2017. The Man Þekktur eins “The Human Highlight 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 “Fight ársins” tilnefndur. Sigurinn lauk vel 2017 fyrir Mystic Lake öryggisvörður, sem byrjaði með TKO sigur á Billy Christianson á LFA 2. Athyglisvert, The Lone áfall ársins kom á stöngina spil LFA 20. While many felt that Jenkins had done more than enough to earn the decision, staðbundin uppáhalds lækkað hættu ákvörðun í heimabæ sínum. Jenkins wasted no time reflecting on the controversial decision and quickly rebounded with his epic win over Wittstock. Nú hefur hann markið hans sett á LFA gull á LFA 34.
Co-helsta viðburði LFA 34 will feature a battle between two of the LFA’s top lightweight contenders. Perzynski (22-9) gerði stór yfirlýsingu í LFA frumraun hans á LFA 20 síðasta sumar, Þegar hann hætti RFA dýralæknir Carl Wittstock um Rear Naked Choke inni fyrstu tveimur mínútum fyrir opnun umferð. 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) þarf minna en helming umferð á LFA 21 last summer to match Perzynski’s accomplishment one week earlier at LFA 20. Ogden, eins Perzynski, also used a Rear Naked Choke to defeat an RFA vet in his LFA debut. Sigurinn kom gegn T.J. Brown og setja upp lokauppgjör með manni sem gerði nánast eins kynningar Frumraun. 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 “Vélbyssa” Kelly Kobold. Eftir sex og hálfs árs hlé frá íþróttinni, she made her return to MMA last summer at LFA 20.
Kobold (18-3-2) er einn af virtustu konur í íþróttum. Hún hefur notið illustrious faglega MMA feril sem nær aftur næstum sextán ára. 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.

HOUSTON, Texas – Legacy Fighting Alliance (LFA) CEO Ed Soares announced today that the LFA will make its third trip to Minnesota at the end of August with a welterweight headliner and the return of two revered Minnesotans.
Helstu atburði LFA 20 will feature a welterweight war between rising star ChadBlitzCurry and former RFA title challenger NickThe Phoenix” Barnes.

I’m happy to bring the LFA back to Minnesota for a third time this year”, Yfirlýst Soares. “We have a great history of bringing exciting fights to the area, and this card will continue that tradition. Both Curry and Barnes have shown to be aggressive, physical fighters, and I really want to see how this match up plays out. Mystic Lake has been a great partner and we look forward to bringing LFA 20 to the Mystic Lake Showroom on August 25th.”
Tickets for 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. Í raun, 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.
Co-helsta viðburði LFA 20 will feature a highly-anticipated match-up between two of the promotion’s top featherweightcontenders. Bobby “The Wolfman” Moffett (9-2) og “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. Meðan, 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. Eftir sex og hálfs árs hlé frá íþróttinni, she will take on knockout artist Christine “Knuckles” Stanley.
Kobold (18-3-1) er einn af virtustu konur í íþróttum. 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. “Knuckles” 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.
