The LFA stayed in Oklahoma for LFA 102. Elijah Johns was beaten by Bruno Souza by Split decision in the main event. The Event featured the 3 person booth, and although I’m not a fan of the three person booth, I didn’t mind this one. Rafael Lovato Jr. was on commentary, and the man is good. -Analytical, fair, immense BJJ knowledge. – I was very impressed. Sanko was there also… She was OK, but at times you could hear a little fighter bias in her commentary. IMO commentators need to throw their egos and biases out the door and call what they see.
It seems like Kansas loves MMA and MMA loves Kanas. The LFA was Parked in Park City Kansas for LFA 95. It was a fun card. LFA is known for its good match making, and just for being an organization that spots talent. The big thing on this fight card was was the Kickboxing powerhouse Alex Pereira. There were a few fights on this card that were cancelled, but we got to keep some gems
Main Event
Round 1
Pereira nails Powell with a body kick and beats him up on the ground for a while. Powell clinches. They separate Powell throws a right highkick and a left hook behind it, the left hook puts Powell in dreamland. It was actually very scary, because Powell was down for a very long time. 🚩Pereira wins by KO
So, the LFA is back. The show took a very long break, and the pandemic really crushed some of the fighters. The pandemic is doing a number on all contractors actually. Its not good, but, we are slowly trying to get back to where we were. The LFA was in Sioux Falls South Dakota for LFA 84
Main Event
Round 1
Gonzales boxes up Childers, lands a big knee, takes Childers down and pounds on him.
Round 2
Gonzales rocks Childers then tries to go to work on the ground again. Childers uses a Kimura to turn the tables, going for a Rear Naked Choke, a head and arm choke and a von Flue choke. Gonzales scrambles out of all of them.
