Brazilian prospect Igor Severino has a new fighting home after signing with Oktagon MMA following his release from the UFC after biting his opponent in his octagon debut.
Promotion officials confirmed the news to MMA Fighting on Tuesday.
At just 21 years old, Severino sports an 8-1 record in his career, but it’s that lone loss that stands out on his resume after he was disqualified for biting Andre Lima at a UFC Fight Night event back in March.
