Legacy Fighting Alliance returned to Brazil on Friday night with a stacked card at a sold-out Musiva in Cuiabá, where thirteen bouts showcased the depth of emerging talent across the country. From start to finish, the event—presented by Monster Energy—delivered action that highlighted the next wave of Brazilian MMA prospects.
In the night’s headliner, hometown favorite Aieza Bertolso rose to the occasion in front of her local fans. Facing reigning strawweight champion Lany Silva, Bertolso seized her moment, locking in a second-round armbar to claim the LFA world title. The victory pushed her professional record to a perfect 7-0, while Silva slipped to 7-2.
The co-main event kept the spotlight on rising stars, as unbeaten lightweight Marcelo Marques extended his flawless run to 12-0 with a dominant unanimous decision over Felipe Oliveira. The matchup was billed as one of the evening’s most competitive showdowns, but Marques’ composure and consistency proved decisive.
