The Legacy Fighting Alliance presents yet another action-packed night of mixed martial arts with LFA 175 on Saturday at Ginasio do Polvilho in Cajamar, Brazil. The stacked card features top-tier fighters in captivating matchups.
LFA 175 sets in motion the company’s 2024 schedule in Brazil, with its seventh show in Cajamar and ninth stop in the state of Sao Paulo. The main event features an eagerly awaited light heavyweight title fight between champion Bruno Lopes and challenger Marcos Brigagao. Additionally, the co-main event showcases a collision of strikers between Samuel Silva and Anderson Ferreira de Souza Santos in the lightweight division.
Lopes returns to defend his title for the first time since September 2022. Brigagao, a fellow Dana White’s Contender Series veteran, looks to seize the opportunity and claim the championship. With a combined total of 16 first-round finishes between them, this promises to be an explosive matchup. Meanwhile, Silva and Ferreira have established themselves as two of the more dynamic strikers in the lightweight division. With a combined total of 23 first-round finishes and both being nominees for “Fight of the Year” in the 2023 Fan’s Choice Awards, expect nothing short of fireworks in this captivating matchup.
Other featured bouts on the card include Marco Tulio Silva Costa facing off against newcomer Cemey dos Santos at middleweight and a bantamweight rematch pitting Fernando Laurenco de Almeida against Rafael Pereira Costa. The bill also sees a battle of unbeaten strawweights, as Edilania da Silva—the 2023 Fan’s Choice winner for “Female Fighter of the Year”—takes on Naizi Cantanhede. The main draw kicks off with Sao Paulo bragging rights on the line, as grappler Vinicius Pires meets striker Apolo Gomes, with both men on impressive winning streaks.
