By Press Release

Houston, TX – July 20, 2016– September 16th, 2016 Legacy Fighting Championships returns to the Arena Theater in Houston,TX with LFC 59! With seven action-packed fights on the televised card, LFC 59 will surely be night to remember. Headlining LFC 59 will be a 185lb matchup featuring the heavy-hitting Ike Villanueva(11-7) versus the undefeated rising star Trevin Giles (6-0). Villanueva has finished 3 of his last 4 opponents in the first round and is willing to stand and trade with anyone. Giles has not let an opponent survive past the second round, and is a threat to finish the fight via KO or submission at any moment.

In the co-main event, Jason Langellier (4-0) will look to stay perfect as he takes on Legacy veteran Ray Blodgett (10-3). The 6’4”Langellier has a height and reach advantage against almost anyone in the 155lb division, and only once has he seen the second round in a fight. Blodgett is a submission ace who is always setting up the finish.

With rising stars Alex Black, Domingo Pilarte, Colin Wright and heavyweight KO artist Jeremy Hardy also on the card LFC 59 will be a night to remember in H-Town!
