The bad news is Kevin Casey is injured, he had to get emergency surgery on a blood clot over the weekend.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Normally, we would just replace Kevin with another person and make the announcement. But what we wanna do is invite the entire community of martial arts to engage.  We\u2019re basically created an open opportunity for any athlete to come in.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You basically have to have a black belt in jiu-jitsu. If you don\u2019t have a black belt in jiu-jitsu, but you\u2019re like a really solid judo guy, or sambo, or something like that, and you have a black belt in that art, that works. But we\u2019re open to anybody.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you can beat Vinny Magalhaes, we\u2019re putting $10,000 on the line.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Vinny is willing to fight anybody at any weight.  It\u2019s pretty exciting. I\u2019d like it to be somebody out of nowhere, that underdog story. That\u2019s what I\u2019m looking for.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Serious grapplers interested in facing Magalhaes can contact Metamoris with an application via email (info@metamoris.com) with the following information: Age, weight, gym, and why you deserve the opportunity to grapple Magalhaes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kevin Casey has been forced to withdraw from his Metamoris 5 match against Vinny Magalhaes due to a blood clot.
