The LFA 5 results are here.
Legacy Fighting Alliance (LFA) put on its fifth event since the merger with Resurrection Fighting Alliance. The event took place last night (Feb. 24) inside the 1STBANK Center in Broomfield, Colorado. LFA 5 aired live on AXS TV.
The main event featured a lightweight clash between Adam Townsend and Marcus Edwards. Townsend was in a world of trouble early in the fight as Edwards had relentless pressure and tagged his opponent with a few solid shots. “Prime Time” regrouped and scored a huge takedown.
After the opening round, Edwards didn’t have an answer for Townsend’s ground game. With seven seconds left in the fight, the referee had seen enough of “Prime Time’s” ground-and-pound and put an end to the fight. Townsend laid on his back post-fight holding onto his ribs, which he said are broken.
