LFA 156 Main Event Elevated to Title Fight
The stakes have just been raised for the LFA 156 main event.
The 13th LFA title fight to take place in South Dakota will crown a new welterweight champion. The promotion has announced Chris Brown has vacated the welterweight title and seeing as the main event for LFA 156 was already presumably a title eliminator. It makes perfect sense to put the belt up for grabs.
Fuller has only fart once as a professional, outside of the LFA’s, making himself a real home in the promotion. A a highlight reel machine the fighter known as the gentleman has secured four of his last five wins by first round finish. The Duke City MMA fighter is coming off forcing Scott Wirtz to tap from a guillotine at LFA LFA150.
Water is made his LFA debut last June making an immediate impression as he scored a late third round knockout of Benjamin Bennett to earn a spot on the Contender Series. After coming up short against former LFA’s champion, Gabriel bond theme. The top Welterweight in Jacksonville returns to the LFA’s looking to continue the ways that I’ve seen him score stopped in 5 of his 6 wins.
LFA 156 is April 16th at the Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, streaming worldwide on UFC Fight Pass.
