Legacy Fighting Alliance (LFA) delivered another explosive night of action on Friday night, as LFA 242: Lozej vs. Bittencourt took place at the Mystic Showroom at Mystic Lake Casino Hotel.
In the flyweight headliner, Brazilian contender Davi Bittencourt Costa cemented his claim at the top of the 125-pound division with a sensational second-round stoppage over Devon Lozej. After a closely contested, high-paced opening frame, Bittencourt found the timing and elevation late in Round 2, landing a devastating flush head kick that sent Lozej to the canvas. The referee stepped in to wave off the contest at 4:13 of the second round, awarding Bittencourt the marquee knockout victory and positioning him squarely in title contention.
The bantamweight co-main event provided immediate fireworks as Brazil’s Marcos Breno needed only 21 seconds to dispatch Japanese standout Shuya Kamikubo. Breno stormed out at the opening horn, unleashing a blistering barrage of power strikes that connected clean and dropped Kamikubo, forcing a rapid referee stoppage at 0:21 of Round 1.
