Matches to make after XFA Fight Night 4

Xtreme Fighting Alliance returned to Harriman, TN on Saturday for XFA Fight Night 4. The 20 fight card was headlined by a five-round championship fight between two undefreated fighters in Tyler Jones (8-0) of Torch MMA & Fitness and Kenderik 'Bloodknife' Davidson (3-0) of Ethos Martial Arts. The main card saw several XFA veterans return to the XFA cage, with multiple new champions being crowned throughout the night.

Here are five matches to make following XFA Fight Night 4.

---

Austin Morris vs Camron Little
Austin Morris and Camron Little both made big waves in their amateur welterweight kickboxing debuts at XFA Fight Night 4, and now a showdown between the two feels like a must. Morris earned a TKO victory over seasoned XFA veteran Jared Brown, dropping him three times with a calculated attack that centered around perfectly timed inside leg kicks. Jared, known for his toughness and fan-favorite status, had never been dismantled like that inside the XFA cage—making Morris’ performance all the more impressive.

On the other side, Camron Little showed incredible poise and technique in a unanimous decision win over Dakota Beene, another familiar face to XFA fans. Little controlled the pace and range, picking his shots and showcasing a high fight IQ throughout. With both fighters delivering standout performances in their debuts against respected opponents, a matchup between Morris and Little is a natural next step. It’s a clash of power versus precision—one that promises fireworks and could set the tone for the next wave of talent in the welterweight division.

Skyler King vs Nik McGehee
After an electric performance at XFA Fight Night 4 this past Saturday, Skyler King has firmly planted himself in the XFA lightweight conversation. Despite a rocky overall record of 5-6, Skyler has turned the corner with two emphatic first-round finishes inside the XFA cage—one at XFA LIVE 02 in February and another just days ago. His aggressive style, finishing instinct, and recent momentum make him one of the most dangerous lightweights in the region and a fan favorite with a growing following.

That’s exactly why a showdown with reigning XFA Amateur Lightweight Champion Nik McGehee is the fight to make. Nik remains undefeated as an amateur and captured the title at XFA LIVE 02, where he showed poise, power, and championship composure. With both men winning impressively at the same event earlier this year and now standing tall after Fight Night 4, a collision between Skyler and Nik promises fireworks. It’s a classic matchup of momentum versus gold—and it belongs on the biggest stage XFA has to offer.

Zack Mitchell vs Matt Luffman
Zack Mitchell vs. Matt Luffman is the fight to make following the explosive showdown at XFA Fight Night 4 this past Saturday. Their battle for the XFA Amateur Dirty Boxing Lightweight Championship delivered exactly what fans crave—nonstop action, grit, and high drama. Mitchell, making his XFA debut after a win in Redneck Brawl, showcased raw power and relentless pressure, ultimately earning a third-round TKO after dropping Luffman. However, the stoppage raised eyebrows, with some fans and observers questioning whether the referee stepped in too early. Luffman, undefeated in XFA kickboxing at 2-0 before the bout, showed toughness and heart throughout, and many believe he deserved a chance to continue.

The stakes, the momentum swings, and the slightly controversial ending have all the ingredients for an instant classic rematch. Both fighters proved they belong on the big stage, and with the Dirty Boxing title on the line, there’s unfinished business that only a second fight can settle. A rematch would not only give Luffman the opportunity to avenge his first loss, but it would also allow Mitchell to silence any doubt surrounding the stoppage and solidify his reign as champion. This is the kind of rivalry that builds legends in the XFA cage—and the fans deserve to see it run back.

Lalo Balderrama vs Kaelan Harbin
Lalo Balderrama vs. Kaelan Harbin is the fight to make following XFA Fight Night 4, and it has all the makings of an instant classic. Harbin, now 3-0, has finished all of his opponents in the first round by submission, including his title-winning performance Saturday night where he claimed the XFA Amateur Featherweight Championship. His dominance on the ground, slick grappling, and killer instinct have made him one of the fastest-rising stars in the XFA and Tennessee amateur ranks.

But standing across from him should be Lalo Balderrama—a 2-0 phenom with deep roots in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and NoGi grappling. Both of Balderrama’s victories have come inside the XFA cage, including a first-round submission at XFA LIVE 02 and a second-round TKO at XFA 01, showcasing his versatility and composure under pressure. With a decorated background in competitive grappling, Lalo represents a stylistic nightmare for most fighters—and the perfect test for Harbin’s submission-heavy game. This is more than a title fight; it’s a battle between two undefeated finishers with elite grappling pedigrees, and it could determine not just the top featherweight in XFA, but one of the most dangerous amateurs in the region.

Vince Thompson vs Chance Pacenti
After an explosive 10-second TKO win at XFA Fight Night 4, Chance Pacenti not only improved his undefeated record to 5-0 but also etched his name into XFA history with the fastest finish the promotion has ever seen. A rising star in the amateur welterweight division, Chance has built his legacy largely inside the XFA cage, with four of his five victories coming under the promotion's banner. As the reigning XFA Interim Amateur Welterweight Kickboxing Champion—having claimed gold in February at XFA Fight Night 3—Chance has proven himself as one of the most dangerous and exciting prospects in the region.

Standing across from him in what could be a blockbuster matchup is Vince Thompson, the current XFA Amateur Welterweight Kickboxing Champion. Thompson last competed in the main event of XFA LIVE back in November, where he earned a decisive victory over Will Rains to claim the title. Though he has been sidelined throughout 2025 due to injury, Vince’s 2-0 record in the XFA cage and championship pedigree make him the perfect opponent for Chance. A showdown between the two champions isn’t just inevitable—it’s the fight to make. Title unification, bragging rights, and a shot at true amateur supremacy in the welterweight division are all on the line.
