Lion Fight 24 is happening Friday with Lion Fight vet Richard Abraham (7-2) and GLORY vet Ky Hollenbeck (31-3-1) in the main event. In the co-main event, England’s Stephen Meleady (38-18) hops across the pond to face Lion Fight upset-king Ognjen Topic (15-5) for the vacant lightweight title. The feature bout of the night features super welterweight champ Jo Nattawut (54-5-2) as he defends his belt against another Brit, Charlie Peters (32-13).
