BAD MMA News — Mon, 10 Jul 2017 12:30:28 +0000

Friday’s LFA 16 card in Dallas has a new main event. History was supposed to take place at the event with the first title defense since the promotion debuted in January. But women’s flyweight champion Andrea Lee (7-2) won’t defend against challenger Davina Maciel (6-1). Lee posted on her Instagram account that visa issues for Maciel are the culprit keeping the Brazilian from traveling to the States for the title fight, and LFA officials confirmed as much when announcing the event’s new headliner between bantamweights Johnny Bedford (23-12-1) and Jimmy Flick (8-3). LFA 16 takes place Friday at The Bomb Factory in Dallas. The main card airs live on AXS TV

Filed under: AXS TV Fights , Featured Videos , News , Videos Legacy FC put together another solid night of fights, though it wasn’t necessarily a banner evening for the event’s referees. Legacy FC 56 took place Friday at The Bomb Factory in Dallas, and the main card aired on AXS TV. In the headliner, Steven Peterson (14-4) dethroned Manny Vazquez (9-2) to claim the bantamweight title , though the ref was a little slow to wave off the fight after the now-ex-champ went to sleep. In the co-feature, bantamweight Jason Sampson (14-1) earned a hard-fought and lopsided decision victory over durable Ryan Hollis (11-9), though a questionable groin strike again put the ref in the spotlight.
