Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Evan Duvernay (ranked 61 p4p, 558 weight class) and Satanic Panic (ranked 7 p4p, 64 weight class). Panic is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Freezing Moon. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
