Legacy Fighting Alliance: Next In Line: Pires vs Belakh | LFA Fights

Legacy Fighting Alliance MMA: Vinicius Pires (11-1) captured the LFA bantamweight world title in March in Brazil, when he submitted an Argentinian opponent to claim the vacant belt. A Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt known for his finishing instincts, Pires combines technical precision with constant forward pressure, making him one of the most dangerous champions on the LFA roster. Fighting out of Brazil, he now looks to defend his title for the first time on U.S. soil and showcase his world-class submission game to a global audience. Artem Belakh (10-2) is a highly skilled prospect from Kazakhstan making his long-awaited LFA debut. Known for his balanced skill set and relentless pace, Belakh mixes sharp boxing combinations with strong grappling fundamentals and high fight IQ. The Kazakh standout holds a 90% finish rate in his MMA wins and now looks to make an immediate impact by capturing the LFA bantamweight world title in his promotional debut at Foxwoods Resort Casino. #LFAMMA #UFC Watch LIVE LFA MMA Events on UFC FIGHT PASS: LFA has sent over 330 fighters to the UFC - more than any other MMA promotion - witness Kamaru Usman, Sugar Sean O'Malley, Henry Cejudo, Kevin Holland, Brandon Moreno, Brian Ortega, Derrick Lewis and many more before they were UFC fighters!
