Just when you thought MMA couldn't get any stranger.
An odd weigh-in procedure — one considered "shady" by the challenger — led to a Legacy FC main event and title fight being called off recently at the 11th hour.
Mark Delarosa refused to fight Legacy bantamweight champion Steven Peterson at Legacy 61 on Oct. 14 the day before the would-be title matchup, because of what he deemed a suspect "third weigh-in" of Peterson administered by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR). Not only would the bout have been for Legacy gold, many felt like the winner would have soon been signed by the UFC.
