For the 22nd time Legacy Fighting Alliance is in the Land of 10,000 lakes, this time an interim Women’s Flyweight title is on the line.

The Mystic Lake Casino Hotel in Prior Lake, Minnesota is host to LFA 193 where the promotion will crown their seventh Women’s Flyweight champion. The opportunity for an interim champion was created when champion Shannon Clark accepted an invitation to compete on Dana White’s Contender Series.

The LFA 193 main event will see Minnesota’s own Cheyanne Bowers against Russia’s Veronika Borisova. Bowers was a track and field athlete who competed in college at Dakota State University. All three of Bowers’ finishes have come on the ground. Borisova has been doing Judo most of her life and has a master of sport in hand-to-hand combat. A championship win in Kazakhstan in 2023 got her the global attention that led to signing with the LFA.

Recap:

Veronika Borisova sat Cheyanne Bowers down quickly with a straight hand. Borisova followed to the ground getting in Bowers guard. Bowers locked up both armbars focused on the right forcing Borisova to verbally tap. Cheyanne Bowers third career submission win claims the LFA interim Women’s Flyweight title. Massive favorite Mitch McKee flattened Ashton Caniglia with a left hook and finished him on the ground for a finish inside of a minute. Denzel Freeman took Steven Asplund down and in the second round took Asplunds neck as he tried to get out from bottom. Devon Lozej & Michael Blockhus scored decision wins on the strength of their wrestling. And the main card started with Alvin Hines stopping Taylor Escamilla’s takedowns with elbows.
