Filed under: AXS TV Fights , Featured , News , Videos Curtis Millender and Mackenzie Dern were the stars of LFA 24, earning impressive finishes in their bouts. LFA 24 took place Friday from Comerica Theatre in Phoenix and aired live on AXS TV. In the main event, four-time Bellator veteran Millender (13-3) helped his cause to return to the big stage with a highlight-reel head-kick knockout of Matthew Frincu (11-3) in just 38 seconds of their welterweight contest. The two explosive fighters came out looking to bang, but it was Millender who patiently absorbed blows before countering with a right high kick that landed flush on the chin and sent Frincu crashing to the canvas. In a featured women’s flyweight fight, jiu-jitsu world champion Mackenzie Dern (4-0) earned another submission win by locking in a rear-naked choke to make Mandy Polk (3-4) tap out at the 2:55 mark of the first round. What stood out, though, was the fact that Dern’s striking – not her grappling – set up the finisher. Watch the full highlights above.
