Legacy Fighting Alliance kicked off its 2025 on Friday night with LFA 199, featuring a pair of jiu-jitsu studs anchoring the event.
In that featherweight headliner, seven-time Jiu-Jitsu world champ Ary Farias took on another BJJ black belt in Erick Visconde, with plenty of bragging rights on the line. Also on the card, heavyweight Josh Hokit, who had a brief stint in the NFL before transitioning to fighting, was looking for his third win as a pro. The Bellator alum faced John Lopez in the night’s co-main event.
