MMA - Canadian Content - Jan 19

Written by Gary "Rumble" Whittaker. Posted in Blogs - The Rumble

Probably the biggest news of the week is the confirmation that UFC President Dana White would move the date of UFC 113, currently scheduled for May 1st in Montreal, should the rumored Mayweather vs Mosley boxing match take place on the same date.

Continuing with the UFC 113 theme, The Franchise's Gary Whittaker interviewed Patrick "The Predator" Côté and Jonathan "Road Warrior" Goulet about their upcoming matches against Alan Belcher and Marcus Davis respectively.

Also on the card is Canadian figher TJ Grant who will take on Johnny Hendricks, and Sam Stout will take on Jeremy Stephens

Mike Ricci was the first fighter named to Season 2 of Bellator's lightweight tournament. Ricci will be part of an 8 man tournament to crown the number 1 contender for the lightweight belt currently held by Eddie Alvarez.

Mike Ricci will still be part of the Ringside Triple Threat card scheduled for January 30th. His training partner, Guillaume de Lorenzi, will not. Guillaume will be out due to a knee injury suffered during training camp.

Georges St-Pierre is back on Primetime. His UFC fight against Dan Hardy, scheduled for UFC 111 on March 27th, will be the subject of a 3 part weekly series on Spike TV.

David Loiseau wants to help the Haitian relief effort. He said, in an interview with Showdown Joe, that he is willing to fight for free and donate his fee, and sponsorship money, to Haiti.
