LUX 002 was a mixed martial arts event held by LUX Fight League on February 17, 2018, at the Gimnasio Olímpico Juan de la Barrera in Mexico City, Mexico.[1]

Background

After the first event, which was very well received, LUX Fight League announced the second event for February 2018, and unlike the first, this one featured a larger number of fights.[2]

It was announced that Sergio Cossio and Mike De La Torre, the latter of whom had a decent track record in UFC, would headline the event. Meanwhile, the co-main event featured a featherweight bout between veteran Rodolfo Rubio and rookie Luis Vallejo. There was also a women's bantamweight fight between Annely Jiménez García and Flor Sáenz, marking the first time female fighters have been included in a LUX event.[3]
