LFA 236 takes place on Friday, 26th June 2026, at the Arizona Financial Theatre in Phoenix, with a bantamweight main event between Aziz “Alay Khan” Osorbek Uulu and Eduardo “Cyborg” Torres. The card will air live in the U.S. on VICE TV, with a Spanish simulcast on ESPN Deportes.


Main Event

Aziz Osorbek Uulu makes his promotional debut as one of the more interesting international additions to LFA’s bantamweight division. The Kyrgyz standout brings an aggressive pressure style and a deep background from the international circuit, which makes him a dangerous first test for anyone.


Eduardo Torres enters as the more familiar face in the LFA ecosystem, carrying a 19-3 record and the kind of experience that usually matters in a competitive 135-pound main event. The Chilean veteran is known for durability, technical striking, and steady consistency, all of which should make this a tough fight to solve.


That style pairing gives Phoenix a compelling headline fight. Osorbek Uulu has the momentum and unknown factor of a new arrival, while Torres has the experience and composure that can often blunt a promotional debut.


Supporting Card

The lineup includes Francisco Hernandez vs. Jose “Pepe” Torres at catchweight, Chance Ikei vs. Enrique Pacheco at flyweight, and Kyle Estrada vs. Kevin Fernandez at catchweight. Those matchups give the card a solid mix of styles and weight classes beneath the headliner.


The middleweight pairings of Austin Clayton vs. Elias Urbina and Marcus Nash vs. Moses Afoa add more depth to the lower half of the event. That creates a card that looks built around prospects and regional standouts rather than a single featured fight.


What To Watch

The key question is how Osorbek Uulu handles his first night under the LFA banner. If his pressure style translates quickly, he could make an immediate impact in the bantamweight division.


Torres, meanwhile, will likely try to slow the pace and turn the fight into a more measured technical contest. If he can keep the bout structured, his experience should give him a real path to victory.


Final Outlook

LFA 236 has the ingredients of a strong regional main event card, led by an interesting bantamweight clash between a promotional debutant and an established veteran. Osorbek Uulu’s arrival adds intrigue, while Torres gives the fight real credibility.


With national TV coverage, a Spanish simulcast, and a solid supporting lineup, Phoenix should get a competitive night of MMA with meaningful divisional implications.
