LFA 21 takes place at the Branson Convention Center in Branson, MI this Friday (September 1, 2017) at 9 p.m. (ET) live on AXS TV. The main event pits two undefeated 205-pound fighters as Kyle Noblitt faces Antonio Paulo Branjao.
Noblitt (8-0) moves down to light heavyweight for the first time since his professional debut in May 2015, and he has stopped seven of his eight career opponents. The 27-year-old split time for this training camp at Factory X in Colorado and at his home gym in Missouri at Glory MMA. Branjao (4-0) makes his North American debut and hasn’t competed since an August 2015 TKO victory over Stefano Alves at Max Fight 16. “Montanha” trains at Team Nogueira and has won all of his fights by knockout.
In the co-main event, Grady Hurley battles Kevin Holland in a middleweight matchup. Hurley (15-1) hasn’t lost a fight since 2001 and has stopped his last four opponents. The 36-year-old is coming off a second-round submission victory over Ben Brewer at V3 Fights 57 in February. Holland (9-3) had his four-fight win streak snapped in his last bout, losing by unanimous decision to Curtis Millender at LFA 13 in June. The 24-year-old has won all of his fights by stoppage.
