LFA is back in South Dakota on Friday night, and the vacant lightweight title is up for grabs.
In the LFA 64 main event, Demarques Jackson (10-2) meets Harvey Park (11-2) in a fight that originally was set to be for an interim lightweight title. But when lightweight champion Austin Hubbard, who won the vacant belt in December, left for the UFC, things changed.
Jackson has three straight wins, including two under the LFA banner. In April 2018, he stopped Hamilton Ash with a first-round TKO at LFA 37. He got a shot at the next level at Bellator 204 and took a split decision from Bryce Logan. Then this past December, he submitted Bobby Lee with a guillotine choke at LFA 56.
That submission win turned out to earn him his crack at LFA gold. Ahead of Jackson’s fight against Park at LFA 64, take a look back at his win over Lee at LFA 56 in the the AXS TV “Fight of the Week” in the video above.
Then don’t miss LFA 64, which takes place Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls. The main card airs on AXS TV.
