Canadians in Combat – March 2020

Top MMA News will be focusing exclusively on Canadian MMA and taking a step back from posting UFC, Bellator, PFL and other fight cards unless they take place in the Great White North! With that being said at the beginning of each month we’ll be posting a list of Canadian fighters that will be competing outside Canada.
As the fights occur we will update this post with the results and Top MMA News will remain your #1 Source for Canadian MMA News even if the fights happen in Kazakhstan, Brazil, the US or anywhere else in the world!

Always been a Makdessi fan. Honestly though ever since his brutal Knockouts against Cerrone and Vannata although he has had a 3 fight win streak before tonight he hasnt looked anywhere close to the same. He doesn’t attack. He doesn’t throw any significant strikes. Hes just in the cage playing defence and creating distance with useless side kicks to prevent getting hit. He will either be cut or I suggest he hangs the gloves up.
Well-loved!
