LFA 61 video highlights: Middleweight champion makes case for UFC bid

Brendan Allen (11-3) has lost three times in his pro career, and all three of the men who beat him are now in the UFC. After dominating Moses Murrietta (8-2) over the course of five rounds, the LFA middleweight champion says he wants a chance to revisit those matchups, but in the UFC cage.

Allen downed Murrietta in the main event of Friday’s LFA 61, which aired on AXS TV from Mystic Lake Casino Hotel in Prior Lake, Minn.

You can watch highlights of the card in the video above.

  • Brendan Allen def. Moses Murrietta via unanimous decision (50-43, 50-43, 50-42) – to defend middleweight title
  • Nate Jennerman def. Ken Beverly via majority decision (28-26, 28-26, 27-27)
