Betting LFA 225 – Winner Picks for Main Card Bouts

Written by on January 25, 2026

If you are a fight fan, your weekend is set to begin on Friday night, as we have a great looking card from the LFA coming our way. There is a total of 5 fights on the main card, which is set to begin at 7:30 PM EST on Friday night, with all the action available to those of you who have a UFC Fight Pass subscription. Of course, the best way to watch any event is by betting on the LFA bouts. We think it makes the action so much more exciting, so let’s see if we can pick out some winners from the main card.

 

LFA 225 Preview

We have a massive event coming from UFC this weekend, but while you wait for that one on Saturday, there is another fantastic event to look forward to on Friday. LFA 225 is set to go on Friday night at 9 PM EST, and it boasts a very impressive main card, which includes a title fight as the headline event. The main card has a total of 5 fights, all of which you can catch starting at 9 PM EST on Vice TV. Now, let’s get to the fights.

Main Card: LFA 225 (5 Fights)

Fight Division / Note
Leon Soares Vs Miguel Porto Light Heavyweight
Marcio Cabral Vs Julio Spadaccini Middleweight
Rafael Pereira Vs Lionel Abojer Bantamweight
Daniel Araujo Vs Derick Borges Bantamweight (Co-Main Event)
Marcos Degli Vs Luis Aguiar Interim Flyweight Championship (Main Event)
 

Leon Soares Vs Miguel Porto

We get the main card rolling with a Light Heavyweight bout that, to me, looks to be a little lopsided. Soares comes into this one with a 9-3 record, but he is also coming off a loss and will be looking to bounce back right away. Porto is 4-2 overall, but there is real cause for concern, as his 2 losses have come in his last 3 fights. He really needs this one, but I think it will be Soares getting the job done quickly.

At-a-Glance

  • Records: Soares (9-3) | Porto (4-2)
  • Form note: Soares coming off a loss; Porto has 2 losses in his last 3 fights
  • Pick: Soares getting the job done quickly

Marcio Cabral Vs Julio Spadaccini

Next fight on the card is a Middleweight bout between a pair of fighters who have been a little up and down over their last 5 fights. Cabral comes in at 12-3 and appears to be bouncing back after losing 2 in a row. He has won his last 2 bouts and is on an upswing. Spadaccini is 9-4 overall, but he is also just 2-2 over his last 4 fights. Cabral is in the better form at the moment and I like him to get the KO win.

At-a-Glance

  • Records: Cabral (12-3) | Spadaccini (9-4)
  • Form note: Cabral has won his last 2 bouts after losing 2 in a row; Spadaccini is 2-2 over his last 4 fights
  • Pick: Cabral to get the KO win

Rafael Pereira Vs Lionel Abojer

We have a really good Bantamweight bout coming up next and you do get the sense that this one will go the distance. Pereira comes into this bout with a 14-4 record, but perhaps more importantly, he is on a winning run that has spanned 9 fights. Abojer has a solid record of 11-3, but he is coming on a bit of a low after losing his last fight. I do believe that this one will go all the way, with Pereira getting the nod.

At-a-Glance

  • Records: Pereira (14-4) | Abojer (11-3)
  • Form note: Pereira is on a winning run that has spanned 9 fights; Abojer is coming on a bit of a low after losing his last fight
  • Prediction note: This one will go the distance
  • Pick: Pereira getting the nod

Daniel Araujo Vs Derick Borges

This Bantamweight bout serves as the co-main event on the card and is one where one of these fighters is looking to maintain a perfect record. That would be Araujo, who comes in at 8-0, with 7 of those wins coming via KO. Borges is 10-4 overall, but he has also been a little up and down of late, going just 2-2 in his last 4 fights. This definitely feels like it’s Araujo’s to lose, and I like him to win it via KO.

At-a-Glance

  • Records: Araujo (8-0) | Borges (10-4)
  • Finish rate note: 7 of Araujo’s wins coming via KO
  • Form note: Borges is 2-2 in his last 4 fights
  • Pick: Araujo to win it via KO

Marcos Degli Vs Luis Aguiar

We have reached the top of the main card, with the headline bout of the evening for the Interim Flyweight Championship. This one should be a beauty, so let’s break it down. Degli is 13-3 overall and is the winner of 11 in a row, which includes a perfect 5-0 record in the LFA. Aguiar is 9-1 overall and the winner of 7 in a row, but he is also ranked 20 spots behind Degli coming into this one. I think that class difference plays a role, as I like Degli to win via KO.

At-a-Glance

  • Records: Degli (13-3) | Aguiar (9-1)
  • Streaks: Degli has won 11 in a row (including a perfect 5-0 record in the LFA); Aguiar has won 7 in a row
  • Ranking note: Aguiar is ranked 20 spots behind Degli coming into this one
  • Pick: Degli to win via KO
