CHANDLER, Arizona — In a highly-anticipated showdown for the vacant LFA lightweight title, JaCobi “Big Toe” Jones defeated Jean-Paul “Mufasa” Lebosnoyani via TKO due to severe cuts that caused the referee to call a halt to the fight at 2:18 of the second round. Jones became the promotion’s seventh 155-pound champion. In the co-main event, An Tuan Ho kept his undefeated record intact by sweeping every judge’s score card en route to a Unanimous Decision victory over Edwin De Los Santos.
