Lion Fight is looking forward to returning to Europe after a year off from the pandemic. Lion Fight 67 marks the promotion’s return where they’ve had so much success.
“There is no better way to kick off our European schedule – our first European shows on UFC Fight Pass as well – than to have a pair of World title fights and those fights featuring Enrico Carrara and Chip Moraza-Pollard,” said Scott Kent, CEO of Lion Fight.
Working with Fight Pass has been a blessing for Kent and Lion Fight. He says working together will help bring more fans to the fantastic sport of Muay Thai in the west.
“Lion Fight has made a concerted effort to showcase the world’s best Muay Thai talent inside our ring. To do that now in tandem with the powerful worldwide reach of UFC Fight Pass is really amazing. Our fans and Muay Thai fans globally will all now be able see what Lion Fight means when it comes to a showcase event, especially in such a spectacular venue in Sicily.”

As of now, there are only three announced fights on Lion Fight 67 with three more on the way. In addition to the Carrara-Vidakovica and Moraza-Pollard-Benko fights, a women’s flyweight bout between Andy Nguyen and Sonia Dinh have been announced.

Moraza-Pollard returning to Lion Fight 67 is a big deal as well. The Cruiserweight champ has been a part of the promotion since Lion Fight 33 and always brings the fight.
