On Friday LFA 1 airs on AXS TV (9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT) from The Bomb Factory in Dallas. It’s the debut show for LFA, an organization that came from 2016’s Legacy FC and RFA merger.

In the main event, Legacy FC champion Steven Peterson (14-4) takes on RFA titleholder Leandro Higo (16-2) in a bantamweight title-unification bout/LFA inaugural title fight.
