Psychout Promotions once again put together an action packed, sold out night of mixed martial arts action.  The card provided non stop exciting action from A to Z, and without a doubt MMA has made it's mark in south central Mississippi.  Former Tennessee Titans/ Atlanta Falcons football player Wes Shivers was also in attendance, and as always, he was very gracious to his fans signing autographs, and taking pictures with them. 

The card had a nicely balanced mix of both amateur fights, and professional fights, both of which provided the fans great fights.  Hats off to the Psychout Promotions matchmaker for putting together a nice competitive group of fights.
