LFA caps the month of January with a pair of title fights in southern Louisiana. Sa an imeacht is mó, former LFA title challenger Brendan “All In” Allen faces top undefeated prospect Anthony “Fluffy” Hernandez for the vacant LFA middleweight title. Sa an comh-headliner, red-hot Ryan “Superman” 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 Dé hAoine, 26 Eanáir at the Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Lake Charles, Louisiana.

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.
