Leandro Higo had to survive a scary moment against Steven Peterson late in the first round. And though he may have thought he was on his way to an easy LFA inaugural bantamweight title win, he had to put in some work to get the belt. Higo (17-2) busted Peterson (14-5) up on the feet in the first round and bloodied him up – but then went for a takedown seemingly out of nowhere. Peterson took advantage and caught him in a guillotine choke that looked tight. But Higo stayed patient, worked out of it, got to the second round, then went back to work. And though he did solid work each round the rest of the way, Peterson never quite went away in Higo’s unanimous decision sweep.
