With the Legacy Fighting Championship 8 weigh-ins now complete I guess (as the old saying goes) it’s all over but the shouting, or in this case the fighting. All fighters would eventually make weight. I say eventually because, as we reported in the comment section of the live weigh-ins stream page, 3 fighters came in over.
Bubba Bush came in a half pound heavy; Evert Guitierrez and Mark Garcia both had to cut a pound. All three guys would make weight.
I’m told (via Mike Jackson (MikeTheTruth.com)) that Nate Garza came in a couple of pounds over (2.5) but was able to cut to 1.5. He paid $100/lb for the rest.
AWARDS:
- Best face off goes to Macaco and Spratt
- Best drawers goes to Justin Reiswerg with those bright blue Superman underoos.
- The “Seems like everybody has to get buck naked to make weight” award goes to, well, almost everybody.

Do your thing Garcia. War 4!
I have a question, the way it’s pictured, Ricardo vs is the 1st Televised fight of the night, is that the case???
I think so, because this is the fight order as per the weigh-ins.
hhmm.. I’m positive I put Rashon’s name in that first post. It disappeared, but either way, that’s sweet, I’m glad they get on TV, it’s a very worthy match up, as is Alex vs Everett
War4!

Team Paradigm. Let’s go for 4 for 4
You got this Morono.
This card is full of TV worthiness and I’m excited about every single fight. Mike the Truth isnt fighting btw.
Thanks for clearing that up Mick, I got worried I missed something somewhere.
Talavera and Lewis have muscles on top of muscles. They win the most impressive looking duo.
Love the Macaco/Spratt pic. In my Rev Bart voice, “I smell some bad bloooooooood….ohhhhhh yeaaaaah…..”
Mick Maynard’s face is the same in every pic…looks like something stinks…
He was standing next to Gus
Mike wins! LMAO.
