Legacy Fighting Alliance is set to return to Dallas with a Red River weekend showdown. LFA 169 will go down Oct. 6 at The Factory in Dallas, concluding the promotion’s tour of its most frequented state. The event will mark LFA’s 12th outing in the DFW Metroplex, a record for the organization.

One of the most highly-touted prospects coming from Texas, Landry Ward will take on rival state Oklahoma’s standout Alfred Walker in the main event. A native of Fort Worth, Texas, Landry, 26, is coming off a hard-fought split-decision win over Matheus Pereira Morais at LFA 163. Meanwhile, Walker will be making his promotional debut as he looks to play heel in enemy territory.

“We are excited to kick off Red River Rivalry weekend and conclude this year's Texas Tour in the city and venue where it all started for LFA,” said LFA CEO Ed Soares announced. “This will set the table for the annual Texas vs. Oklahoma football game that takes place across town the following night at the Cotton Bowl. Our Texas fanbase has been amazing and we look forward to capping this year's tour of the state at The Factory in Deep Ellum.”

The rest of the card, as of now, includes a featherweight bout pitting Elijah Johns (9-3) against an opponent to be decided; a 135-pound duel pitting Ty Johnson (12-6) aginst Cortavious Romious (7-1); a women’s bantamweight scrap as Melissa Croden (4-2) will lock horns with Katharina Lehner (8-4); flyweight tilts that match Aaron La Farge (5-3) up against Alden Coria (6-2) and Kevin Fernandez (6-1) versus Joseph Camacho (6-1).
