LFA 60 results: Julius Anglickas claims vacant light heavyweight title

BAD MMA News — Sat, 16 Feb 2019 06:22:20 +0000

An emotional Julius Anglickas (6-1), who lost his grandmother in the weeks leading up to his fight, claimed LFA’s vacant 205-pound title over late replacement Clayton York (5-1). The light heavyweight contest served as the main event of Friday’s LFA 60, which aired on AXS TV from 7 Flags Event Center in Clive, Iowa. York opened the contest with several powerful low kicks before driving in for a takedown, though Anglickas defended well against the fence, sprawling and then hopping briefly on one leg to stay upright. Anglickas eventually slipped to the floor while trying to strike, and York was able to capitalize by slipping over to the back and quickly locking in a figure-four around the body

Robert Emerson For the first time in more than a decade as a professional fighter, Robert Emerson claimed an organizational championship when he defeated Shawn West to capture the vacant Victory FC bantamweight title in Friday’s Victory FC 51 main event. Emerson (17-11) put his veteran savvy to work against a more inexperienced foe in West (12-7) in the UFC Fight Pass-streamed headliner at Buccaneer Arena in De Moines, Iowa. He mixed up his striking and grappling attacks in the first round to wear his opponent down and set up the rear-naked choke finish at the 1:30 mark of round 2. Despite experiencing a popped cauliflower ear in the first round that splatted blood across his face, Emerson continued to press the action in the 135-pound championship contest. He eventually got on top of West and into mount, forcing his opponent to give up his back and open up for the fight-ending choke.
