The Legacy Fighting Alliance has put together another night of adrenaline-fueled showcases with LFA 178 on Friday at Kaiser Permanente Arena in Santa Cruz, California.

The event will be headlined by an interim light heavyweight title showdown between formidable contenders Uran Satybaldiev and Bruno Assis. The bout offers a compelling matchup between contrasting styles, with Satybaldiev as a renowned sambo master and Assis as a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt. Satybaldiev brings an impressive 5-1 record with four finishes to the cage, having already made waves in Central Asia. He aims to further solidify his status as a rising star by conquering the LFA stage. Standing across the cage, battle-forged veteran Assis boasts a 13-6 record. He carries a diverse skill set built around his foundation in martial arts training in jiu-jitsu, judo and karate. Assis, a former middleweight title challenger, has successfully transitioned to the 295-pound weight class.

The winner of this epic clash will have the opportunity to unify the title against the winner of the LFA 175 main event later this year. With both fighters hungry for victory and eager to make their mark on the mixed martial arts world, fans can expect nothing short of an unforgettable battle inside the cage. Meanwhile, the co-main event features an intriguing welterweight clash between Miguel Jacob Elmokdisi and Jefferson Creighton.

LFA 178 streams to UFC Fight Pass at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT. A closer look at the particulars:
