Lashley needed just 41 seconds to dispose of Joshua Franklin the co-main event of Saturday night's "Mixed Fight Alliance: There Will be Blood" in Miami, Fla. Lashley appeared in the event while on loan from the American Fight League.The inaugural card for the Mixed Fight Alliance also featured a unanimous decision win by ten-year veteran Jeff Monson (27-8) over former UFC heavyweight champion Ricco Rodriguez (34-10).
Following the bout, sources close to Lashley told MMAjunkie.com (http://www.mmajunkie.com/) that the heavyweight prospect was likely to return to action in an as-yet-unannounced card in February for the California-based Palace Fighting Championships.
