Justin Wetzell vs. Jacob Thrall set for LFA 85
An exciting bantamweight clash is scheduled for LFA 85. Justin Wetzell is set to take on Jacob Thrall in the 1STBANK Center.
Justin Wetzell (5-1) is coming of consecutive finishes, most recently against Michael Aquilla in 28 seconds last time LFA came to Broomfield. He looks to extend his win streak to 5 when he takes on the explosive Jacob Thrall (6-2-1) next month.

Thrall is also coming off back-to-back finishes, submitting Eric Ellington before the end of round 1 last time out. “Gerberbaby” will look to get his second LFA win and boost his win streak to 3 in enemy territory.
LFA 85 will stream live on UFC Fight Pass, April 3rd, and will feature a featherweight championship headliner. Justin Gonzales is scheduled for the title fight, however, still awaits a new opponent after Steve Garcia received the call-up at UFC Norfolk.
As of recent, LFA is reviewing their April dates after a National Emergency was declared in the U.S. due to the coronavirus. We at The Scrap will closely monitor fight cancellations and postponements.
