After a short break, Legacy Fighting Alliance returned to action with Friday’s LFA 239, featuring a catchweight main event between Chris Mecate and Manuel Exposito.
Originally, flyweight Gianni Vazquez was expected to feature in the main event, but his recent callup to the UFC meant that LFA had to make other plans.
Benny Orozco missed weight for his lightweight fight against Dzhamal Mavliudov, but the bout moves forward, with Orozco paying a fine.
