LFA 158 to Crown a New Lightweight Champion
Legacy Fighting Alliance will make a twelfth visit to the “Grand Canyon State” with a battle for the vacant Lightweight title headlining.
The main event will see California’s Jean-Paul “Mufasa” Lebosnoyani battling Colorado’s Jacobi “Big Toe” Jones for the championship Aaron McKenzie vacated to be on the upcoming season of The Ultimate Fighter.
Lebosnoyani is a lifelong martial artist training Jiu Jitsu since the age of three. The fighter nicknamed “Mufasa” has rebounded from his first career loss with a trio of first round submission wins. Jones has fought all six of his professional fights inside the LFA octagon. “Big Toe” has rebounded from his first loss stopping Riley Wiseman from a cut and submitting Christian Turner with a rear naked choke.
The co-main event will see UFC vet Kevin “Quicksand” Natividad squaring off with Brazilian finisher Matheus “Teeik” Silva. The feature fight will be a showdown between unbeaten welterweight Ray Waters & Tyler Veal.
LFA 158 is set for May 19th at the Gila River Resorts & Casinos in Chandler Arizona.
