The LFA cage headed to Sioux Falls, South Dakota Friday night for LFA 89 as a host of rising prospect secured impressive victories to raise their stock on their quest to catch the attention of the world’s top global promotions. In the night’s main event, Brant Moore Jr. (8-1) earned a unanimous decision victory over former “The Ultimate Fighter” graduate Joe Giannetti (9-3) to move one step closer to a shot at the LFA lightweight title currently held by Bryce Logan. Moore used his wresting and grappling skills to drag Giannetti to the mat, where he pressured with submission attempts and ground and pound. To his credit, Giannetti hung tough and took the bout all the way to the scorecards, but it was Moore’s night, as the Texas native claimed the decision win and extended his winning streak to six, with his last three coming under the LFA banner.
