Background

LFA kicks off Veterans Day weekend in the Valley of the Sun with a Bantamweight Showdown at LFA 196!

announced today that the promotion will return to the “Valley of the Sun” in November with a bantamweight showdown at LFA 196. This will be the sixteenth LFA event to take place in the state of Arizona. Thirteen of these events have taken place at Arizona Financial Theatre in the state’s capital city of Phoenix.

LFA 196: Tanner vs. Ureña takes place Friday, November 8th at Arizona Financial Theatre in Phoenix, Arizona. The main event will feature a bantamweight showdown when Dana White’s Contender Series alum Kasey Tanner faces top Dominican prospect Micaias Ureña.

“We are excited to bring another action-packed fight card to Arizona at LFA 196,” stated LFA CEO Ed Soares. “That includes Arizona’s own Kasey Tanner, who is a Dana White’s Contender Series alum that trains alongside former UFC two-division champion and LFA great Henry Cejudo. He will return looking for his third win inside the LFA Octagon. Tanner faces top Dominican prospect Micaias Ureña, who made a massive statement in his LFA debut this past summer by knocking out Dana White’s Contender Series alum Ashiek Ajim. This bout features two of the most exciting prospects in the bantamweight division and will cap an explosive night of fights in downtown Phoenix.”

Tanner (7-1) is a lifelong martial artist that began training with his father, Billy Tanner, at the age of 6. His father is a black belt in Shotokan Karate and continues to coach him along with the help of one of the greatest combat sports athletes of all-time. That would be LFA great, Olympic wrestling gold medalist, and former UFC two-division champion Henry Cejudo. Tanner now returns to action looking to go a perfect three-for-three in the LFA. Tanner’s first LFA win earned him an invitation to compete on Dana White’s Contender Series in a bout that had the UFC boss standing on his feet clapping as the final horn sounded. White then made a rare appearance inside the Octagon to shake both Tanner and Jean Matsumoto’s hands before the official decision was announced and awarded both men their “show” and their “win” money. Tanner then returned to the LFA last summer, where he earned a quick submission victory at LFA 188. Now he looks to win his first LFA headliner.

Ureña (9-2) is a man that wasted little time making an impression on LFA fans. The top Dominican prospect recorded the second fastest knockout in LFA bantamweight history with his scintillating 11-second knockout of top Trinidadian prospect and Dana White’s Contender Series alum Ashiek Ajim. The bout billed as the “Battle of the Caribbean” took place at LFA 189 in western New York and ended abruptly when a big right hand from the dynamic Dominican landed flush on his opponent’s chin. The man known as “The Pink Ranger” saw his stock rise exponentially with the win and now finds himself headed to Phoenix, which is the adopted hometown of the LFA’s first Dominican champion and current UFC star Waldo “Salsa Boy” Cortes-Acosta. In fact, Cortes-Acosta won his first LFA fight in the same building that Ureña will be looking to re-create his magic from this past summer as he gets set to become just the second Dominican fighter in history to headline an LFA event.
