Pandan se tan, Allen fights out of Roufusport, home to UFC star Sergio Pettis. Both Ottow and Pettis became stars in the RFA before signing with the UFC.

Watley then punctuated his championship reign with a dominant TKO victory over Daryl Wilson in his first title defense at LFA 27 nan Novanm nan. 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) touche piki l 'nan LFA lò apre genyen youn nan batay yo nan pi memorab 2017.

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) bezwen mwens pase yon mwatye nan yon wonn nan LFA 21 last summer to match Perzynski’s accomplishment one week earlier at LFA 20. Ogden, tankou Perzynski, also used a Rear Naked Choke to defeat an RFA vet in his LFA debut. genyen an vin atake T.J. Brown ak mete kanpe yon konfwontasyon ak yon moun ki te fè yon prèske ki idantik premye pou chanje klas. 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 “Machin zam” Kelly Kobold. Apre yon sis ak yon lakun mwatye ane soti nan espò a, she made her return to MMA last summer at LFA 20.

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.
