Lion Fight 22 Results


Lion Fight 22 took place at Sunset Station Casino in Henderson, NV. The night's main event featured a super welterweight title fight between Jo Nattawut and Salah Khalifa. It was a brutal start to the fight for Khalifa, as he was battered by Nattawut from all angles. Despite Nattawut being able to control the fight and land damaging blows, Khalifa showed true grit by making it to the end of the fight. When it was over there was no question that Nattawut had won the fight and was the new champion. With the win Nattawut improves to 4-0 under the Lion Fight banner.

Tiffany Van Soest and Bernise Alldis squared off in the co-main event. The women's featherweight title was on the line after Caley Reece's recent retirement left the title vacant. As Van Soest has showed in the past, her speed and foot work would be hard to match. She seemed a step ahead of Alldis throughout the fight. She worked a nice mixture of steady punches and kicks and when in close range delivered elbows and knees. The fight was eventually stopped in the fourth round by the doctor because of a cut Alldis had suffered. With the win Van Soest regains the title she had previously lost to Reece.
