LEGACY FIGHTING CHAMPIONSHIPS 15 AXS TV MAIN CARD PREVIEW

By David Tees on 11/11/2012 9:57 PM

Despite losing the original main event of William Bush and Noel Ligon, the Legacy Fighting Championships 15 event still moves on. The promotion instead gives a new main event as Robert Drysdale looks to remain undefeated against Chris Reed. William Bush remains on the card, as well as other professional MMA fighters looking to make a big impact on AXS TV.

Kicking off the action is a flyweight division fight as Marcus “The Barber” Dupar (2-1-0) competes against Matt “Danger” Schnell (1-0-0). Marcus Dupar enters the fight riding a two fight winning streak, last defeating Bobby Powers at Legacy FC 11. Matt Schnell is currently undefeated as a professional fighter, but is best known for his stint on the MTV reality show “Caged.” Matt Schnell is bring some decent promotion to Legacy FC and they are not going to give him any tough fights early on, which is why he will win his second straight.

Welterweights will step into the cage next as Rashon Lewis (2-2-0) does battle with Charles Ontiveros (2-0-0). Rashon Lewis has rotated wins and losses thus far in his MMA career, with his last fight being a loss to Alex Morono. Charles Ontiveros is an undefeated professional MMA fighter who made his professional MMA debut this past Summer. Charles Ontiveros has looked impressive thus far in his young MMA career and he will continue to do so getting his third victory.

A pair of bantamweights will square off next as Thomas De Almeida (6-0-0) is in action against Cody “Wolverine” Williams (4-3-0). Thomas De Almeida is an undefeated fighter who has finished all six of his opponents in the opening round. Cody Williams has only won two of his last five fights, but this Friday Night’s fight will mark his fifth fight this year. Thomas De Almeida has been a monster thus far in his MMA career and he will show why with a victory on Friday Night.

We move to the middleweight division for the next fight as William “Bubba” Bush (4-2-0) stakes on Jon “The Jaguar” Kirk (16-10-0). William Bush has won two of his last three fight and has competed against UFC veteran Andrew Craig in the past. Jon Kirk enters the fight riding a three fight losing streak and has not achieved a victory in over two years. William Bush was in line for a middleweight title fight for a reason and he will show why after earning his fifth career victory.

More bantamweight division action will happen next as Saul Elizondo (5-2-0) battles Angel “The Chosen One” Huerta (5-1-0). Saul Elizondo enters the fight riding a two fight winning streak, which includes a victory over MMA veteran Randy Villareal. Angel Huerta will be looking to rebound from his first professional MMA defeat, which came to Nelson Salas at Legacy FC 11. This is a key bantamweight fight in the promotion and it will be Angel Huerta picking up the major victory.

Up next is a lightweight division fight as Ray Blodget (7-1-0) stands across the cage from Carlos Diego Ferreira (4-0-0). Ray Blodget enters the fight riding a two fight winning streak and his lone professional MMA loss came to UFC veteran Daniel Pineda. Carlos Diego Ferreira is an undefeated fighter who has spent the majority of his career in the Ultimate Warriors Fighting promotion. Ray Blodget has faced far better competition than his foe and that experience will guide him to a victory.

Headlining this card is a light heavyweight division fight as Robert Drysdale (4-0-0) faces Chris “The Celtic Tiger” Reed (4-1-0). Robert Drysdale is an undefeated fighter who holds victories over top fighters like Mike Nickels and Isaac Villanueva. Chris Reed returned to action this past July after a three year layoff, defeating Jeremy McCombs by TKO. Robert Drysdale is known as one of the best grapplers for a reason and he will show why with a victory in the main event.
