MFL : Battleground press conference coverage‏

Mixed Martial Arts - MMA

Montreal, February 20th 2010 – The Mixed Fight League held this past Wednesday, February 17th, its MFL : Battleground’s press conference at the Montreal’s Boulevard Lounge. The headliners Bruno Hosier, David Loiseau and Steve Bosse were introduced to the media and discussed their respective bouts as well as answered the reporter’s questions. During his speech, David Loiseau claimed that the MFL : Battleground’s lineup is going to be the most explosive and interesting fight card to be presented in Quebec since TKO promotion closed its door.

During the press conference, the Mixed Fight League announced a partnership with Hollywood’s producer, James Hergott and his company, « Owned Entertainment », which engaged itself to make an important donation to David Loiseau to support him and the MFL in their fundraising efforts to help the Haiti earthquake’s victims. The donation amount will be revealed on February 27th during the event. The Canadian Red Cross will be there to ask the public to donate for the cause and to receive the Owned Entertainment’s donation given to Loiseau.

Also, during the event, there will be a special auction held by the Red Cross. A lot of collectibles and autographed items will be available for auctions and all the profits will be to the benefits of the Haiti disaster’s victims.

The MFL was also proud to reveal that former TKO voice and host, Anthony Horng, will be back in the Octagon as he has been nominated by the Mixed Fight League to become the new official MFL octagon announcer. Anthony Horng had been recognized to be one of the best MMA announcers in Canada and is compared by many people to Bruce Buffer. His nomination should please MMA fans which enjoyed and recognized Horng’s excellent knowledge, professionalism, dedication and enthusiasm in his work these past years.
