It has been a whirlwind month or two for Derrick Krantz, intensifying this week into something more like a Category 5 hurricane. In the midst of it all, the veteran remains as calm as the eye of said storm, confident that his long-awaited moment has come.

To recap: On March 29, the former Legacy Fighting Alliance welterweight champion fought in the main event of LFA 63 in Belton, Texas, a card whose stakes had been ratcheted up several notches by the presence of Ultimate Fighting Championship President Dana White, scouting talent for his eponymous Contender Series.
