LFA
101 “The Undefeated” lived up to its billing as six fighters
tasted defeat for the first time during
Legacy Fighting Alliance‘s latest event.
The final fight of a night filled with action was between Tee Cummins
and Anthony
Kalani, who missed the light heavyweight limit by 4.4 pounds.
Both men started the fight looking to trade strikes with Cummins
(3-0) landing a number of leg kicks. Kalani (5-1) was throwing the
heavier punches, but Cummins’ speed advantage saw him land at a
higher frequency. Cummins’ capped off an impressive performance
with a beautiful left hook that knocked Kalani (5-1) down. After a
series of punches, the fight was mercifully stopped at 1:20 of
Round 3.
The second-to-last match saw Treston
Vines face Jalin
Fuller, who unprofessionally was 6.2 pounds over the
welterweight limit. Vines (4-1) clipped Fuller (5-0) early but
wasn’t able to capitalize on the opportunity. However, Fuller
delivered a brutal knockout blow later in the round as he
landed a huge right hook after a series of kicks. The fight was
waved off 2:32 of Round 1.
Mark
Climaco came out on top in a battle of unbeaten prospects. The
slick ground game of Climaco (5-0) proved to be too much for
Pololu
Nakanelua during their 129-pound catchweight bout. Climaco
bloodied up Nakanelua (4-1) with punches in Round 1 but failed to
put away the Hawaiian. Nakanelua refused to give up and kept the
fight competitive, but it was Climaco that received a unanimous
decision verdict from the judges (30-27, 30-27, and 30-26).
Lightweight prospect
Miguel Jacob Elmokdisi Neto faced the toughest test of his
career against the experienced A.J.
Nichols. Both fighters had their moments, but it was Nichols
(7-2-1) that had more gas in the tank as the fight went on. The
veteran managed to take Neto (4-1) down in the last round and lock
his opponent into a crucifix. Neto
was unable to defend himself and the fight was called off at
the 2:41 mark as a result.
Strawweight Jaqueline
Amorim completely outclassed the debuting Taisha
Gandy and submitted her opponent in quick fashion. Amorim
needed just 33 seconds to sink in a rear-naked choke that
forced Gandy (0-1) to tap. Amorim moves to 3-0 with the
victory.
In a flyweight bout, Alden Coria
managed to outwrestle Rashaad
Robinson in the first round. However, Coria (4-0) ended the
fight on the feet as he landed a huge left hand that floored
Robinson (3-2).
A flurry of punches later and the fight was called off at 1:05
of Round 2.
Middleweights Hunter
Colvin and Obinwa
Ikebunna opened the main card. Colvin (3-0) showed a grappling
advantage early and eventually got the back of Ikebunna (2-1).
After
sinking in a rear-naked choke, Colvin got the tap at 2:49 of
the first round. After the bout, Colvin said he’ll move down to
welterweight going forward.
In the lone preliminary bout, Elmar
Umarov (3-0) picked up a TKO win over Cody King
(1-2) via elbows and punches at 2:20 of Round 1
