Avila is pricey, but Raging Panda might not be worth the premium as much as some of the other expensive options on the card. Her 22 second first round KO of Gina Mazany in June can be somewhat discounted, and her quality opponent in Kianzad is more indicative of her stopping ability. She’s very likely the winner here, but you need to be assure of more than triple digits at this price, and that’s tough to see.
