This Friday, May 8, Legacy FC and the RFA will be holding a joint card featuring fighters from both promotions squaring off against each other in a first event of its kind for both companies on AXS TV. LFC promoter Mick Maynard spoke to MMAWeekly.com to discuss the decision to do a joint production with RFA, the process of putting it together, and the one fight that he feels could very well be the wildcard amongst a very competitively balanced field. MMAWeekly.com: Firstly, Mick, can you tell us how the idea to work with the RFA on this event together came about? Mick Maynard: I think it started when various promotions like World Series of Fighting called out Bellator back in the Bjorn (Rebney) days, and then I think that maybe we said we’d get involved in that. That’s when the idea of all that got started. We started thinking of doing that and going down that road, people don’t realize the obstacles that stand the way.
