Report

Mayas de CDMX won the 2017 and second season of the Liga de Fútbol Americano Pofesional in Mexico with a 28-18 victory in Mexico Bowl II over Dinos de Saltillo. They had won convincingly, having gone 6-1-0 during the regular season, with their only loss coming in week 1 against Eagles de CDMX (21-33), and thereafter winning games by margins such as 64-16 (week 2 at Condors CDMX), 30-12 (week 3 versus Dinos de Saltillo), 47-20 (week 6 versus Condors CDMX) and 33-14 (week 7 at Fundidores de Monterrey). In the Semi-Finals they had gained revenge over the Eagles, winning 40-18.

Raptors de EdoMex had won the Grupo Under Armour with a 5-2-0 record, but had been surprised in the Semi-Finals, losing a close game 10-13 at home to the Dinos. This was the first year separate Groups had been employed, with the additions of the Fundidores de Monterrey and Dinos de Saltillo in the North adding to the four teams in the Capital. Raptors moved out of the Arena shared with the three CDMX teams, and into their own Arena in Estado de Mexico (EdoMex), the State surrounding the Federal District.
