Filed under: AXS TV Fights , Featured Videos , News , Videos Legacy FC put together another solid night of fights, though it wasn’t necessarily a banner evening for the event’s referees. Legacy FC 56 took place Friday at The Bomb Factory in Dallas, and the main card aired on AXS TV. In the headliner, Steven Peterson (14-4) dethroned Manny Vazquez (9-2) to claim the bantamweight title , though the ref was a little slow to wave off the fight after the now-ex-champ went to sleep. In the co-feature, bantamweight Jason Sampson (14-1) earned a hard-fought and lopsided decision victory over durable Ryan Hollis (11-9), though a questionable groin strike again put the ref in the spotlight.
