From John Petrilli (RITC): RITC 40 – Casa Grande (Results) Casa Grande proved the perfect host for Rage in the Cage with a sell-out, standing room only, well behaved crowd. 13 action packed matches featuring aerial slams, wild standup and numerous submissions thrilled the audience. Only one fight went to the judge’s scorecards. Casa Grande, thanks for the outstanding support, Rage in the Cage will be back!!! Shannon Ritch, the most active MMA fighter in the world, competing for the first time in his hometown, won by rear naked choke in 55 seconds of round 1, over John Lansing, the RITC #1 ranked welterweight.
