BRASÍLIA, FEDERAL DISTRICT, BRASILE

LAS VEGAS, Nevada — LFA CEO Ed Soares announced today that the promotion will make its second trip to the capital city of Brazil in July with a Championship Headliner at LFA 212. The main event will feature an interim flyweight title fight between two of South America’s most decorated prospects. This interim title defense became necessary as the promotion awaits the status of its sitting champion Eduardo Chapolin, who is currently competing on the UFC’s thirty-third season of The Ultimate Fighter.

This will be the twenty-third LFA event to take place in Brazil and it will celebrate the promotion’s international expansion that began four summer’s ago. LFA 212 will take place in the Federal District, which makes it the third LFA event to take place in the Central-West Region of Brazil. LFA has also visited the Brazilian states of Rio de Janeiro, San Paolo, Pernambuco, and Mato Grosso.

LFA 212: Degli vs. Miguel, presentato daEnergia dei mostri, si svolge Venerdì, July 11th in Brasília, Federal District, Brazil. The main event will feature an interim flyweight title fight when interim champion MarcosTailandês” Degli defends his title against top contender Oscar Miguel. The entire main card will be available worldwide onUFC LOTTA PASS®  a 8 p.m. E / 5 p.m. PT.

We are excited to bring the LFA Interim Flyweight Championship to the capital city of Brazil,” stated Soares.The LFA began its international expansion in July of 2021. We have since hosted 22 events in Brazil in the states of Rio de Janeiro, San Paolo, Pernambuco, and Mato Grosso as well as the Federal District. LFA 212 will be our second event in the nation’s capital city of Brasília and we will celebrate our 4-year-anniversary in the country with a title fight. What makes this title fight even more exciting is the fact that it features two of South America’s most decorated prospects. Marcos Degli(Brasile) and Oscar Miguel (Perù) will also rekindle a Brazil vs. Latin America fight tradition that started in the LFA last July.” 

Degli (12-3) started his year in February by becoming the LFA’s fourteenth flyweight champion. He did this by defeating fellow top prospect Lincon Santos in the co-main event of LFA 201. The crowning moment came when Degli landed a beautiful Left Hook to knock out the fellow Brazilian National Muay Thai champion in the second round of their interim flyweight title fight. The interim title shot became available to Degli after the LFA’s sitting flyweight champion Eduardo Chapolin was cast to compete on the UFC’s thirty-third season of The Ultimate Fighter. Degli’s win over Santos ran his LFA record to 4-0 and earned him a gold belt to go along with his BJJ black belt. Tuttavia, instead of waiting on Chapolin, Degli jumped at the opportunity to defend his interim title much like LFA great Charles Johnson did four summer’s ago.

Degli was also eager to face the biggest challenge in his division, who happens to reside on the other side of his continent. That would be none other than Peruvian kingpin Oscar Miguel. Degli vs. Miguel also rekindles the Brazil vs. Latin America rivalry that began last July at LFA 187, when the LFA hosted a team challenge between the two most dominant factions of MMA talent in the southern hemisphere.

Miguel (14-1) is one of the most beloved fighters to hail from theLand of Incas”. Peru has in fact experienced its Golden Era in MMA over the past few years with Claudio Puelles, Daniel Marcos, Jose Ochoa, Kevin Borjas, Luis Pajuelo, Rolando Bedoya, Jesus Pinedo, James Llontop, and Enrique Barzola all reaching the pinnacle of the sport by competing in the UFC. That success has also carried over to the LFA Octagon, where both Rodrigo Vera and Abraham Racho just won their LFA debuts impressively at LFA 209. Miguel will now become just the second Peruvian fighter to fight for an LFA title and to headline an LFA event after his countrywoman Sandra Lavado became the first to accomplish both these feats two summers ago at LFA 164. Tuttavia, Miguel will be looking to become the first to bring LFA gold back home to Peru.

FULL SCHEDULE OF JULY LFA EVENTS ANNOUNCED

 LAS VEGAS, NV- LFA President Sven Bean announced today that the LFA has entered into two event production agreements in July of 2025. Bean is responsible for developing venue partnerships, booking and scheduling for the LFA.

The LFA team will make return visits to two fantastic markets to produce events in the month of July.said Bean.

We will kick things off with a return to at the ASBAC Brasília Ginásio de Esportes in Brasília, Federal District, Brazil on Friday, July 11th. stated Bean.

This will be our second visit to Brasília for the LFA. In March of this year the LFA Brazil Team, led by LFA VP of South America Rafael Feijão, laid the groundwork for a successful show at ASBAC Brasília Ginásio de Esportes. It was so successful in fact that before the event concluded, plans were put in motion for a return event in July. I’m very excited to see what Rafael Feijão and his team have in store for everyone in July!”

LFA VP of South America Rafael Feijão added:

“I’m very happy to be working again with Secretário de Estado Renato Junqueira, and Governor of the Federal District Ibaneis Rocha Barros to bring the LFA back to Brasília. I am grateful for their continued support of the growth of the LFA brand in the area. Our first event was a great success on all levels, and we are already working on an even bigger show for July!”

LFA 212 will be broadcast live on Friday, July 11th at 5PM PST/8PM EST on UFC LOTTA PASS®
We will then close out the month with a return to Tachi Palace Casino Resort in Lemoore, California for a special Saturday night engagement on July 26thcontinued Bean.

This will be our second event at Tachi Palace Casino Resort. Our inaugural event back in January was successful on all levels. Detto, you always learn a lot when producing first time events on properties. I’m extremely excited to work again with the Tachi Palace entertainment team. Together we will only improve on what was an already great event. This property has a deep history in the sport, and has been hosting MMA events for over two decades. I’m looking forward to continuing to leave the LFA’s mark this coming July.

New Fight News Unlimited Sponsor ODDSJAM Helps Make Sports Betting More Profitable

Da: Rich Bergeron

Fight News Unlimited is on a new quest to recruit sponsors, and we just landed a very important one to bolster our upcoming Weekly Combat Sports Wager Report column. That column will be debuting this coming Thursday, so stay tuned.

Probabilità is a sophisticated software suite that helps users get the best odds and take advantage of profitable betting strategies. The software combs just about every sportsbook you can think of and can easily be tailored to search only the books in your particular area for the best betting opportunities.

I was recently introduced to the concepts ofarbitrage betting” e “middle betting.Both of these strategies specifically target inconsistent odds and varying prop bet offerings on different sportsbooks and sportsbook-adjacent apps like Underdog Fantasy, Prize Picks and Betr.

Probabilità can literally help you make sure you never lose money on sports betting again. Arbitrage betting and middle betting strategies can’t work without the ability to find and capitalize on the best information out there, la quale Probabilità provides. Doing a manual search for the info they provide instantly in real time would take forever.

Keep in mind, you need a bankroll of $2,000 or more to make the best of these two strategies for earning a guaranteed profit. You can also get limited or banned by sportsbooks that are able to detect what you’re doing to generate that profit.

Here’s a great tutorial that shows you exactly how Probabilità works, how to avoid getting limited or banned for using it, and why it’s worth the monthly or yearly subscription fees:

Probabilità is truly the best tool available for sports betting. You can also use their software to find which sportsbooks offer the best lines for different events. I have been a dedicated user for about a year now, and I love the ease of use and amazing features they offer.

I am by no means a professional gambler. I needed all the help I could get when I first signed up for Probabilità. One way I limit my losses is by only betting $5 on each wager and trying to stick to sports I know well. Although most professional gamblers with huge bankrolls advise staying away from parlays, that’s how I capitalize on my $5 personal bet limit. Here are just a few of my biggest wins since I started using Oddsjam:

I do my own research in addition to utilizing software like Probabilità, and one tip I can offer is to watch fights as much as possible to get to know the fighters you are putting your money on.

I also use Sherdog.com to comb through records of each fighter to see how long they’ve been fighting and where they’ve fought. Chances are if Fighter A has 17 fights in the UFC and is facing Fighter B who is making his UFC debut on a week’s notice, Fighter A is typically the best one to put your money behind.

Sportsbooks also often allow for betting on what I callfeeder leagueslike LFA, which is one of the UFC’s deepest recruiting pools. The favored fighters usually win on those cards, so finding an underdog winner to parlay into a profitable bet can be very challenging.

Dana White’s Contender Seriescan also provide winning opportunities if you are capable of a little deep research. The prospects who appear on these cards might have long winning streaks, but it’s important to find out who their opponents really were. Sometimes you might see an undefeated fighter on there against a journeyman and think the smart bet is the guy with no losses. Look deeper and you could find the undefeated guy fought his whole career against tomato cans with no wins of their own.

Inside information is also crucial. Sometimes that type of intel goes public, like a couple weeks ago when UFC fighter and commentator Michael Chiesa hyped up Juliana Miller on the pre-fight show for UFC on ESPN 67. Her opponent Ivana Petrovic was a decent favorite, and Miller came into the fight with a record that did not look all that impressive.

Chiesa reported that Miller was looking like a beast in training at the same gym he calls home. Sure enough, Miller won handily as the underdog against a game and formidable opponent. It pays to keep your ears open for these kinds of tips.

Many times in the post-fight interview a winning male fighter will also cite the fact that he is a new father. I call it the Baby Daddy factor. If you know before the fight that a particular fighter is making a new commitment to the sport after the birth of a child, that kind of inspiration can be key.

A death of someone close to a fighter can also have a huge effect on the outcome of a fight. Consider one of the greatest upsets of all time: Giacomo “BusterDouglas beating “Ferro” Mike Tyson. Buster’s mother tragically died just 23 days before the fight. Douglas promised her before she died that he would beat Tyson. Come tutti sappiamo, he kept that promise and shocked the world in the process. Imagine what it must have felt like to have a winning bet on that fight.

Former UFC Fighter and Coach James Krause literally made a living betting on UFC fights with insider information. Most of us among the average betting public don’t have access to that kind of knowledge, anche se. Così, instead of banking on hunches, we should take advantage of every useful tool we can find to beat the books.

No matter what sport you like to bet on, Probabilità is a tool you should have in your toolbox if you need a little help finding success. Take advantage of their free trial and give it a month to work to your ultimate benefit. Your bank account will thank you for it.

La LFA PORTA IL CAMPIONATO INTERIM FEMMINILE DEI PESI PAGLIA IN BRASILE ALLA LFA 197



VENERDI, 22 NOVEMBRELFA 197: KUZIUTINA vs. GUIMARÉS

Presentato da: ENERGIA MOSTRO

MAIN EVENT:
LA CAMPIONESSA NATASHA KUZIUTINA vs. LO SFIDANTE YASMIN GUIMARÃES

LOTTA PER IL TITOLO DEI PESI PAGLIA FEMMINILE AD INTERIM

VIVI UFC LOTTA PASS® a 7 p.m. E / 4 p.m. PT


LAS VEGAS, Nevada - Il CEO della LFA Ed Soares ha annunciato oggi che la federazione tornerà in Brasile a novembre con un headliner del campionato alla LFA 197. Nel main event, in palio ci sarà il titolo provvisorio dei pesi paglia femminile.

Questo sarà il diciannovesimo evento della LFA che si svolgerà in Brasile dopo l'inizio dell'espansione internazionale della promozione nell'estate del 2021. Questo sarà anche il dodicesimo evento della LFA che si svolgerà nello stato di San Paolo, che è lo stato più popoloso del Brasile. LFA ha visitato anche gli stati brasiliani di Rio de Janeiro e Pernambuco.

LFA 197: Kuziutina vs. Guimarães, presentato da Energia dei mostri, si svolge Venerdì, Il 22 novembre al Ginásio do Polvilho di Cajamar, San Paolo, Brasile. L'evento principale sarà caratterizzato da una lotta provvisoria per il titolo dei pesi paglia femminile con la campionessa ad interim Natasha “Kuzya” Kuziutina difende il suo titolo contro il principale contendente Yasmin Guimarães. L'intera carta principale sarà disponibile in tutto il mondo su UFC LOTTA PASS® a 7 p.m. E / 4 p.m. PT.

“Siamo entusiasti di portare un’altra lotta per il titolo di livello mondiale in Brasile,” Dichiarato Soares. “Abbiamo un'incredibile base di fan a San Paolo e in tutto il Brasile, che è il luogo di nascita delle moderne MMA. Il paese ospiterà ora due delle nostre più grandi star internazionali nell'evento principale della LFA 197.

Natasha Kuziutina è una tre volte olimpionica di judo e la prima donna russa a vincere un titolo LFA. Difenderà il suo titolo provvisorio dei pesi paglia femminile per la seconda volta contro la star brasiliana e campionessa della Muay Thai Yasmin Guimarães. Il vincitore avrà la possibilità di unificare il titolo contro l'attuale campionessa Rose Conceição all'inizio del prossimo anno.”

Li adoro (6-1) è la prima donna russa a vincere un titolo LFA, e ancora una volta, sta cercando di fare qualcosa che non è mai stato fatto. Ciò accadrà se sarà in grado di difendere per la seconda volta il titolo provvisorio dei pesi paglia femminile della LFA, dato che lei e Jaqueline Amorim sono attualmente in parità con una difesa del titolo a pezzo.. Kuziutina ha vinto il titolo sconfiggendo la cinque volte campionessa IBJJF Giovanna Canuto alla LFA 173. Ha poi difeso il suo titolo per la prima volta ad agosto sconfiggendo Bruna Ellen, campionessa di lunga data di Bellator, nell'evento principale della LFA 189.

Prima del suo successo nelle MMA, Kuziutina ha goduto di un'incredibile carriera nel Judo ed è ora il judoka più decorato che abbia mai gareggiato nella divisione dei pesi paglia delle MMA. Ha rappresentato la Russia al 2012, 2016, e 2020 (ha avuto luogo a 2021) Olimpiadi estive. Era al 2016 Olimpiadi estive in Brasile, dove ha vinto una medaglia di bronzo olimpica. Ora torna in Brasile per la seconda difesa del titolo, diventando così la prima donna a dirigere eventi della LFA in due continenti.

Guimarães (8-1) è una combattente decorata di MMA e Muay Thai che ha costruito le sue abilità di livello mondiale gareggiando in tutto il mondo. La dinamo brasiliana ha costruito il suo nome e la sua reputazione gareggiando con successo in entrambi gli sport in tutta Europa e nel Medio Oriente. A quel tempo, ha gareggiato due volte per KSW, che è una delle principali promozioni di MMA in Europa.

Ha anche gareggiato e allenato in Bahrein, gli Emirati Arabi Uniti, e il suo paese d'origine, il Brasile. Ciò include la sfida per il titolo WBC Muay Thai dei pesi supergallo. Dopo aver gareggiato in tutto il mondo in molteplici discipline nei pesi mosca e nei pesi gallo, l'orgoglioso Carioca è tornato a casa a Rio de Janeiro a maggio, dove ha fatto il suo debutto nella divisione dei pesi paglia nell'evento principale della LFA 183. Guimarães ha trionfato quella notte consegnando alla migliore prospettiva Naizi Cantanhede la prima sconfitta della sua carriera. Ora cerca di catturare l'oro della LFA, mentre difendeva il terreno di casa, poiché i brasiliani non hanno mai perso un evento principale della LFA in Brasile.

LAS VEGAS, Nevada – LFA CEO Ed Soares announced today that the promotion will crown a bantamweight king and queen with a championship doubleheader when the promotion returns to Dallas in November.

 

 

L'evento principale della LFA 55 will feature a bantamweight title fight when top undefeated prospect Miles Johns battles fellow top contender Adrian Yanez for the vacant title. The co-headliner will feature a women’s bantamweight title fight when regional queenpin SarahToo SweetAlparfaces Panamanian superstar JoselyneLa PanteraEdwards for the inaugural title.

L'intero carta principale sarà trasmessa in diretta e su scala nazionale AXS TV a 9 p.m. E / 6 p.m. PT

 

 

I am excited to bring a championship doubleheader to the birthplace of LFA,” Dichiarato Soares. “We will crown a bantamweight king and queen when we return to Dallas on November 30th. Miles Johns and Adrian Yanez are two of our most talented prospects. They will meet for the vacant bantamweight title in the main event of LFA 55. We will also crown the inaugural women’s bantamweight champion when Sarah Alpar faces Joselyne Edwards in the co-headliner of LFA55.

 

 

 

Biglietti per LFA 55 – Johns vs. Yanez are available for purchase NOW at TheBombFactory.com.

 

 

 

Johns (7-0) heads into this title fight looking to punctuate what has been a sterling career to this point. The Kansas native, who now calls Dallas home, will get the chance to win LFA gold and run his record to 8-0. That would position him as the undisputed top bantamweight prospect in the world. The powerhouse known asChapoearned his fearsome nickname for his ruthless demeanor inside the Octagon. The 24-year-old Fortis MMA standout has won his last three fights for LFA and Legacy FC (prima della fusione), which includes a statement submission win over fellow top undefeated prospect Eric Ellington at LFA 40. Johns will now up the ante looking for a title winning performance in his first headlining bout for the promotion at LFA 55.

 

 

 

Yanez (7-2) is a Houstonian and fellow LFA standout that will be looking to play spoiler in a long sporting rivalry between Dallas and Houston, which is known as the I-45 Rivalry. Yanez, like Johns, gew up in the promotion. After enjoying a fantastic amateur career for Legacy FC (prima della fusione), Yanez continued his success as a pro. That includes winning his last two fights for LFA in emphatic fashion. They were the types of fights that coaches, fan, and promoters recognize as special moments in a young fighter’s career. The moments where a fighter transforms from a once promising prospect into a legit title contender. The 24-year-old Metro Fight Club standout now looks to take the next obvious step by becoming champion at LFA 55.

 

 

 

Alpar (7-4) has been a force in women’s MMA since making her professional debut seven and a half years ago. The Oklahoman known asToo Sweethas been anything but sweet to her opposition. The 27-year-old most recently earned a regional title by stopping top Paraguayan prospect Pamela Boveda Aguirre via first round TKO. The win gave Alpar two regional titles to go along with a marquee win over Jocelyn Jones-Lybarger earlier in her career. Jones-Lybarger went on to fight for the UFC after wining RFA gold. Alpar will now look to pave a similar path. That journey begins with a shot at the inaugural LFA women’s bantamweight title at LFA 55.

 

 

 

Edwards (8-1) is widely considered the top women’s bantamweight prospect in Latin America. “La Panterahas been unbeatable over the last three years, which includes seven consecutive wins. The 23-year-old has seven stoppage victories in her eight career wins, which includes a 57-second TKO win over Bellator vet Jessica Middleton in May and a second round armbar win over RFA vet Brenda Gonzales last month. The two wins also earned her a pair of regional titles. Now that Edwards and Alpar are both champ-champs on the regional scene, they will look to go all-in with the inaugural LFA women’s title and #1 women’s bantamweight prospect status on the line.

I am excited to bring our year-end event at the world-class Mystic Lake Center in Minnesota”, Dichiarato Soares. “LFA has enjoyed two incredible years since the merger of RFA and Legacy created our promotion. LFA 56 will punctuate year number two in style. It will be the fourth nationally televised MMA event to take place inside Mystic Lake’s new world-class facility in 2018. Mystic Lake has been a wonderful partner and it will now host the LFA lightweight world title fight between Austin Hubbard and Killys Mota on December 7th.

Hubbard (9-2) returns to the LFA Octagon fresh off the most impressive win of his career. That win took place in his LFA debut in May against fellow top prospect Harvey Park. The fight took place at LFA 39 in Vail, Colorado. The resort town is over 8,000 feet above sea level and the event broke AXS TV’s record for the highest elevated event in network history. The 26-year-old Illinois native, that currently trains at Elevation Fight Team in Denver, was able to withstand the thin air and won a war of attrition against the talented New Mexico based Sheriff’s Deputy, who was riding a 7-fight win streak. Hubbard earned a shot at the vacant title with that gritty performance and will now travel back home to the Midwest with his sights set on becoming LFA’s second lightweight champion.

 

 

 

Mota (11-0) will get his LFA title shot after doing what every fighter dreams of achieving after their first 11 lotte pro. That would be attaining a perfect 11-0 record. During the course of that streak, Mota famously knocked out UFC and PRIDE legend Akihiro Gono in his native Brazil. Tuttavia, it was his most recent win that was his most important win. That came in his LFA debut in June against fellow top prospect Bobby Lee. The 27-year-old Glover Teixeira protégé stopped Lee just 21-seconds into the second round of their fight at LFA 41. The win came via Guillotine Choke after Mota battered Lee with his impressive Muay Thai arsenal. The win also came four weeks after Hubbard’s LFA debut win. Now their paths will finally meet at LFA 56 with the LFA lightweight title on the line.
