LFA 80 Results: Garcia Scores Questionable Finish in Round Two

On Friday, Jan. 17, Legacy Fighting Alliance hosted its 80th event and first of 2020, from the Route 66 Casino Hotel in Albuquerque, N.M.

In the night’s main event, featherweights collided as Steve Garcia took on Jose Mariscal. Garcia, a Bellator MMA and Contender Series veteran, made his promotional debut and was riding a three-fight winning streak. Mariscal, meanwhile, had won four of his last five outings, with the lone loss coming against Joanderson Brito at LFA 65.

Midway through the second round, Garcia finished Mariscal, striking his way to a TKO.
