UPDATE: Removed Will Romero as he is out with an injury.
Is that true romero is out……any 1 confirm
^^^^Crap! That sucks, loved that fight! Hopefully a good replacement can be found.
LOERNZ , FRASER , GROULX OR JOHNSON PLEASE 1 OF U GUYS STEP IN ! ( SHORT NOTICE SUCKS BUT I BET ADAM WOULD STEP IN ).
I send my best to Will and hope he has a quick recovery. He is a great fighter and I hope we’ll get the opportunity to lock horns in the future. Was really looking forward to that match.
@Jeff Harrison, They looking for a replacement or is the fight just scratched?
They are bouncing some opponents around! Keeping my fingers crossed I just want to compete!
John the natural is truly the highlite fight of the month in Canada.
Duncan will shut down for the fight!
Go Hudson, his last fight in Sarnia Ontario was the first live MMA fight ive seen in my life, i enjoyed it and have since been a fan of The War Dog
love to see tristan johnson take the fight but i think theres a connection with gyms ? and it is short notice . hopefully they find someone for jeff . that was the fight i was most looking forward to
Fight is off… Two in a row! Hey mike thanks for the kind words.. I feel amazing and am ready to bang with anyone right now. It is unfortunate and stressful putting in the work without the pay day and the win on sherdog..but at the same time feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to train and focus and improve so much these last two camps. Thanks again to Romero and The Score for the opportunity and the good press.. See someone ( hopefully a quailty opponent)in the cage soon I hope. Cheers
WRECK maybe? Sign the contract homez!!!
I have pretty much been guaranteed a fight on Wreck..not sure who it will be against. With Romero I was going to prove I can hang in the top ten. It’s been 3 years of hard work and evolution since I fought Fraser and gagnon and I have improved alot in the areas I need to work on. I want to start competing with the upper echelon of featherweights in Canada again!
How about Jeff Harrison vs Rejean Groulx?
HELL OF A FIGHT KEITH , JUST VERY SHORT NOTICE !
Groulx would get hurt. Harrison is too big, too strong, and too talented. He doesn’t get enough credit. That guy’s thai clinch is world class..
@booboo…. Not short notice for wreck.
@keith wreck would nice but , ringside , i think , has contracted fights for him but GREAT FIGHT ! @NAKMUAY R U FUKN KIDDING ME , GROULX IS A HUGE FEATHERWEIGHT 5 10 170 WALKN WEIGHT AND DID SOMETHING HARRIS COULDNT DO , LASTED 3 ROUNDS WITH GAGNON AND GAVE HIM ALL KINDS OF TROUBLE . HE IS TRAINING BJJ WITH TRISTAR NOW AND I FEEL WOULD TAP HARRIS OUT IN 2 RNDS IF IT HITS THE GROUND ! THIS IS MMA NOT JUST MUAYTHAI , I HAVE GROULX IN 2 ! HIS GROUND GAME IS THE DIFFERENCE IN THIS FIGHT IF IT HAPPENS . EVERY ONE THOUGHT THE SAME THING WITH THE GAGNON VS GROULX FIGHT , GROULX SUPRISED EVERYONE IN THAT FIGHT AND ALMOST FINISHED GAGNON A COUPLE TIMES . I LIKE THE HARRIS , GROULX MATCHUP , BUT REJEANS WOULD B MY PICK IN THAT FIGHT , SUB RND 2 .
MUCH RESPECT FOR JEFF ! A STEP UP IN COMP IS WHAT HE WANTS , SO REJEAN IS A TOP 10 FEATHERWEIGHT , GREAT TEST FOR BOTH GUYS WITH REAL RANKING POTENTIAL ! GROULX IS NO VIVIAN lol.
ive had the pleasure of particpating in one of kru jeffs classes when he was in N.S once when i was very new to training and he really knows his stuff and practices what he preaches. his stand up is as good as any FW and he has cardio for days . he seems to really be taking mma serious now and focusing on becoming well rounded , i think he will make some waves in the 145 division this year and give the top ten some tough fights. Born fighter
