This is a really cool card, excited to see how the fights play out!

Jorgensen vs Cason is my personal favorite fight obviously, I just hope Legacy has a backup in case Cason gets injured, since the dude is in a perpetual state of injury lately.
 
This is a really cool idea. I'd have liked for them to wait so they could do more champ vs champ match ups. But maybe this can be something they do every once in awhile.

Love the card though. The main and co-Main? Absolutely no reason the winners of those fights shouldn't get into the UFC.

I'm a little nervous about Mike B fighting for a title at 155. That's a pretty drastic cut and I don't think he made it all the way to even 156 last time.

Just looking at the card I'd say RFA has the advantage on paper. I think Damacio gets a KO.

Such a bad ass idea though.
 
Man. This is so awesome. Really all I have to say. Thank you AXS. Thank you RFA and thank you Legacy.

Agree, would be cool if they had more champ vs champs but RFA has champs Legacy doesnt have.

But overall its a cool idea and a good card, hope to see it more, maybe once a year do a card like this. Like they are working together.
 
Hope this becomes an annual thing between the two. Tunica, MS? Seems like a super random city to hold a card.
 
RFA lower divisions are way better right now
UFC has signed every decent LFC prospect under 155

Ed Soares talks about how he and Mick Maynard want to turn this into a series in the video above. Tunica, MS is about 20 miles from Memphis, TN. This area of the country has held quite a few notable MMA shows.
 
Adam Townsend is very local to me and might just be the guy from East TN to make it to the UFC. A lot of hype behind him, very good fighter.
 
Anyone checked out Dave Burrow? 13-5 , 55 straight armbar finishes including anthony njokuani. 23 years old, ZERO decisions.
 
hope to see more cross-promotion events

Burrow's win over Njokuani is a must watch. One of the better comebacks I have seen.
 
This is a great pitch from these shows. Hopefully AXS steps up promoting more than they would a regular card.
 
I really hope they make this easy to access for people overseas, I would love to watch this!
