Kasey Yates crosses over to the world of bare-knuckle from MMA and none of his professional fights have lasted longer than two and a half minutes. The same can essentially be said for his amateur fights where his longest fight went 3 minutes into the second round. That was also his first fight. Needless to say, look for his fights to end very early and in violent fashion.

Despite the recent struggle, Yates is tough, motivated to succeed and powerful. Once he puts all of the pieces together, he will be a potential contender in the lightweight division.
