​Billy White will be competing under the Xtreme Fighting Alliance (XFA) banner for the first time this Saturday in Crossville, TN at XFA: Jiu-Jitsu Underground and will be one of the sixteen athletes competing for a championship belt in the White Belt Absolute Tournament. 

Billy is a product of Lucas Lepri Knoxville in Knoxville, TN and has won matches in events like FUJI BJJ and Grappling Industries, but this will be the first time competing with XFA.  And he's doing so in a pretty stacked White Belt Absolute tournament.  

​Darius Crutcher will be making his Xtreme Fighting Alliance (XFA) debut at XFA: Jiu-Jitsu Underground entering into the White Belt Absolute tournament being held at the event this Saturday in Crossville, TN at the Cumberland County Community Complex.  Darius will be one of sixteen athletes competing for a championship belt. 

Darius is a veteran of 4 amateur mixed martial arts bouts, but will be making the jump into XFA grappling competition for the very first time and will be doing so in a stacked 16-man tournament. 

Tyler Wallace of Chattanooga Mixed Martial Arts College will be competing under the Xtreme Fighting Alliance (XFA) banner for the very first time this Saturday at XFA: Jiu-Jitsu Underground in Crossville, TN at the Cumberland County Community Complex in a 16-Man Open Weight White Belt tournament. 

A veteran of mixed martial arts with an amateur record of 1-2, he will be stepping out of the cage and onto the Jiu-Jitsu competition mats for the very first time and will be one of 16 athletes competing for a championship belt on Saturday.  

A rematch between two XFA Combat Jiu-Jitsu veterans will happen in February under Pancrase rules.
​
Ed Lawrence and Chatt Lavender will meet in the XFA cage again February 15th at Nellie's in Harriman, TN, not in a Combat Jiu-Jitsu rematch, but in a Pancrase style match.  The two competed against each other for the XFA Combat Jiu-Jitsu Light Heavyweight Championship on October 21st, 2024 in Crossville, TN at XFA Fight Night 2.  Lavender won the bout via Decision and became the inaugural XFA Combat Jiu-Jitsu Light Heavyweight Champion.  

Bellator and PFL veteran 'Big Sexy' Billy Swanson will be putting away the gloves and instead of stepping into the cage, he will be stepping onto the mats in a submission only grappling match at the inaugural XFA: Jiu-Jitsu Underground event on January 25th in Crossville, TN.

​Chattanooga Mixed Martial Arts College's Swanson will be jumping in the deep end of submission grappling and will be taking on the very experienced Chase Morales of Memento Combat Sports in an advanced NoGi match.
