Trevin Giles vs. Ryan Spann headlines LFA 3 on Feb. 10

The headliner is set for LFA 3, the third scheduled event since Legacy FC and RFA announced a merger earlier this year.

Middleweight vets and AXS TV Fights regulars Trevin Giles (8-0) and Ryan Spann (9-3) are slated for the night’s main event.

LFA takes place Feb. 10 at Golden Nugget Lake Charles in Lake Charles, La., and the main card airs on AXS TV.

“I’m excited to bring the LFA to Louisiana in February,” LFA CEO Ed Soares stated. “Ryan Spann and Trevin Giles are two of the most exciting prospects to have ever competed for Legacy FC or RFA. Fans of AXS TV Fights have been wanting to see this fight for a long time. Now it’s official. Spann vs. Giles will finally happen in the main event of LFA 3.”

Undefeated Giles previously fought for and headlined Legacy FC and RFA events. In his most recent bout, the 24-year-old Texan scored a third-round submission victory over Isaac Villanueva at Legacy FC 59. It was his eighth stoppage in eight career wins – half of which have come in the first round.

Spann, a 25-year-old Texan with seven submissions in nine career wins, is a recent Legacy FC competitor. The fighter, who’s now based out of Lake Charles, headlined Legacy FC 58 and was on a 4-1 run (with four stoppages) heading into the July bout with former UFC fighter and jiu-jitsu ace Robert Drysdale, who ultimately submitted Spann in the second round.

Additional LFA 3 bouts will be announced in the coming weeks.
