Legacy Fighting Alliance will make its maiden voyage to Atlantic City, N.J., on Sept. 14.

The promotion announced Monday that LFA 49 is set for the Golden Nugget Casino and will be headlined by a clash between unbeaten welterweight prospects Sean Brady and Gilbert Urbina.

In the co-main event, UFC veteran Jonavin Webb will square off against Tanner Saraceno at 170 pounds, while former U.S. national boxing champion Danyelle Wolf will make her MMA debut against Courtney King in another featured bout at featherweight. The evening’s main card will air on AXS-TV at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.

The 25-year-old Brady has compiled an 8-0 mark while competing primarily for the Cage Fury Fighting Championships promotion. Most recently, the Philadelphia native outpointed “The Ultimate Fighter” alum Colton Smith on March 17.

Urbina, 22, is the younger brother of three-time UFC veteran Hector Urbina and Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series alum Elias Urbina. The Weslaco, Texas, native improved his career record to 5-0 with a first-round submission of Noel Ligon at LFA 7 on March 24.
