Filed under: AXS TV Fights , Featured Videos , Videos While the fighters from the top bouts on Friday’s Legacy FC 53 card all fought to decisions, a middleweight rematch early on the card produced a pretty slick submission. Legacy FC 53, which aired on AXS TV from Center Stage Atlanta in Georgia, saw welterweight Dhiego Lima (11-4) grind out a decision win over Antonio Trocoli (9-2) in the headliner, and in the co-headliner, Dave Vitkay (17-12-1) edged fellow 170-pounder Cody Wilson (9-2). But further down the card, Adam Dehart (6-5) rematched Amir Dadovic (2-3). While Dehart won the duo’s first bout via split decision in 2012, the second bout ended up much more definitely, thanks to a slick submission from side control. Check out that finish and the rest of the highlights from the card above. And for complete coverage of Legacy FC 53 , including a full event recap , check out the MMA Events section of the site.
