On Friday, February 6, Legacy Fighting Alliance hosted LFA 226 live from F & M Bank Arena in Clarksville, TN. The main event saw the LFA middleweight title on the line with recently crowned champ David Allakhverdiev meeting his first challenger, Joseph Kropschot.
Allakhverdiev won this title only in August, KO’ing John Moore in about a minute. But his title reign wouldn’t last long. On Friday is was submitted in the second round. That makes Kropschot the twelfth middleweight champ in LFA history.
In the co-main event Dedrek Sanders put away Nikolay Kiosse with some brutal knees to the body. Elsewhere on the card there were loads of submissions. Among those were Bellator veteran Mackenzie Stiller tapping Kendra McIntyre with a scarf hold armlock and a number of triangle chokes.
