Although several fights fell through during fight week, the
Legacy Fighting Alliance will surge ahead with a shortened
five-fight offering capped off by a title bout.
A new LFA interim flyweight champion will be crowned at LFA
110. All 10 mixed martial artists that remained on the billing
hit their proper marks. The main event will see Charles
Johnson face Japanese prospect Yuma
Horiuchi for the interim 125-pound championship. The promotion
is opening up the title for dispute, as current champ Victor
Altamirano is headed to Dana White’s Contender Series in search of a
Ultimate Fighting Championship contract.
After starting his career at 6-0, Johnson (8-2) has alternated wins
and losses over his last four fights. Victories over Karlee
Pangilinan and Andrew
Kimzey are his most recent accomplishments, with a defeat to
Brandon
Royval breaking up his momentum. “Inner G” stepped on the scale
weighing 124.8 pounds.
Fighting out of Tokyo is Tang Tang Fight Club product Horiuchi
(8-3). The Japanese fighter has seen mixed results inside LFA, with
a setback to Leandro
Gomes in his company debut. Horiuchi bounced back with a
submission triumph over Donavon
Frelow to earn his shot at interim gold. The 23-year-old
weighed 124.4 pounds for the title opportunity.
The five-fight LFA 110 card will air live on Friday on UFC Fight
Pass at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.
