The main card is set for LFA’s trip to Colorado next month.
LFA 10 will be headlined by a previously announced middleweight fight between Ian Heinisch (6-0) and Lucas Rota (12-6). But the promotion recently announced the rest of the main card for the show, which takes place April 21 at Massari Arena in Pueblo, Colo., with a main card on AXS TV.
In the co-main event, Brandon Royval (4-2) will take on Nick Urso (9-2) in a flyweight bout. Additionally, the card features Zac Riley vs. Jerome Rivera at bantamweight; Slobodan Maksimovic vs. Dominic Montoya at lightweight; Andrew Tenneson vs. Andrew Yates at featherweight; former Cuban Olympic wrestler Maikel Perez Gonzalez vs. Adam Martinez at bantamweight; and NCAA D-I All-American wrestler Cody Yohn vs. Mike Jones at welterweight.
Royval will fight in front of his home Colorado fans. He has won three of his past four fights, including a WSOF 29 knockout of Michael Schivallo favorite Danny Mainus and, most recently, a submission of Rakan Adwan at LFA 5 in February.
Urso, who trains at Jackson-Wink MMA in Albuquerque, N.M., has fought for both Legacy FC and RFA, which announced a merger this past year and became LFA in 2017. Urso was submitted by current UFC flyweight Ray Borg at Legacy FC 30 nearly three years ago, his most recent loss. Since then, he has wins over Joshua Montoya and, most recently, Ken Porter this past September at RFA 44.
