Welterweights will be featured in LFA’s return to the Show-Me State.
Officials today announced 170-pounders Derrick Krantz (21-10) and Kassius Kayne (12-4) are slated to headline LFA 42.
The card takes place June 8 at Branson Convention Center in Branson, Mo., and the main card airs on AXS TV.
Krantz is a former LFA and Legacy FC welterweight titleholder who lost his belt with a split-decision defeat to James Nakashima in September. It snapped the 30-year-old Texan’s three-fight winning streak and came after an overall 6-1 run that included five stoppages.
He now meets Klay, a 31-year-old Nebraskan and former Victory FC champion. Like Krantz, Klay, a former RFA fighter, has fought some notable names during his young career. In October, he made his LFA debut and scored a TKO win over Jordon Larson. It was one of 12 stoppages in his 12 carer wins.
