Watley (9-1) is widely considered the top lightweight prospect in the world. Čovjek poznat kao “Kontakt” 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 u novembru. 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) stekao pucao na LFA zlato nakon osvajanja jednog od najupečatljivijih borbe od 2017. Čovjek poznat kao “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 of the Year” kandidat. Pobeda završio uspješnu 2017 za zaštitar Mystic Lake, koja je počela sa TKO pobjede nad Billy Christianson na LFA 2. Zanimljivo, usamljeni prepreka godine došao na rezultat kartice LFA 20. While many felt that Jenkins had done more than enough to earn the decision, lokalni favorit pala split odluku u svom rodnom gradu. Jenkins wasted no time reflecting on the controversial decision and quickly rebounded with his epic win over Wittstock. Sada je bacio postavljena na LFA zlato na LFA 34.
Ko-glavni događaj LFA 34 will feature a battle between two of the LFA’s top lightweight contenders. Perzynski (22-9) napravio veliki izjavu u svom LFA debi na LFA 20 prošlo ljeto, kada je zaustavio RFA veterinar Carl Wittstock preko Zadnji Naked Choke u prve dvije minute prvom kolu. 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) potrebno manje od pola kolu na svom LFA 21 last summer to match Perzynski’s accomplishment one week earlier at LFA 20. Ogden, kao Perzyński, also used a Rear Naked Choke to defeat an RFA vet in his LFA debut. Pobede došao protiv T.J. Braun i postaviti obračun sa čovjekom koji je napravio gotovo identična promotivni debi. 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 “Mitraljez” Kelly Kobold. Nakon pola godine pauze od sporta šest i, she made her return to MMA last summer at LFA 20.
Kobold (18-3-2) je jedan od najuglednijih žena u sportu. Ona je uživala slavnog profesionalnu MMA karijeru koja datira gotovo šesnaest godina. 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.
