Canadians in Combat – July 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.
UFC has been going steady over the last as the only MMA promotion able to hold consistant events. There were several Canadians in action last month with Tanner Boser, Gillian Robertson and Marc-Andre Barriault picking up big wins, all by stoppage.
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. MMA promotions are slowly re-starting their operations as Bellator and Brave CF both return this month with Canadian’s near the top of the card.

Added results for Malcolm Gordon’s UFC debut on Fight Island

Really hoping Ronson can get his 1st win in a Big Promotion.
0-2 in PFL.
0-3 in UFC.
His skillset is better then shown but hasn’t proven it. Here’s to hoping.
Added results for Tanner Boser and Jesse Ronson’s fights on UFC Fight Island
Both Boser and Ronson awarded $50,000 POTN bonuses!
Added Corinne Laframboise vs. Manon Fiorot at UAE Warriors 12 on July 31
Boser looks and moves like a light heavyweight. He needs a top 15 opponent next.
