There has been a last moment shake-up in the Lohja Fight Night main event, as Juho Valamaa (6-3) was set to face the experienced Frenchman Davy Gallon (12-4), however now the Finn will face Twan Van Buren (5-4) from Holland. The mixed MMA and Muay Thai card takes place this Saturday at Sporttikeskus Tennari in Lohja.
