Lemoore’s Tachi Palace has been the home of MMA in California since 2001, with LFA making its promotional debut at the venue with 12 fights for the Central Valley Locals for its presentation of LFA 199: Farias vs. Visconde.
The matchup poses as the first time in LFA’s 199 event-long history that they will have two fighters competing against each other who have competed for LFA on different continents.
Coming off a hard-fought win over Busurmankul Abdibait in October at LFA 194, Erick Visconde looks to continue that momentum into Tachi Palace as he takes on fellow countrymen Ary Farias.
Farias, who comes into the contest with a two-fight win streak of his own, is 2-2 in his time in for the LFA promotion so far in his career.
Also making his LFA debut in LFA 199 is former standout Fresno State and 49ers fullback Josh Hokit, who looks to make his return to the Central Valley a successful one as he takes on John Lopez in the co-main event.
