Bob Nicholson, vice-chairman and CEO of the Oilers Entertainment Group (the arena owner)
spoke to the Edmonton Journal about the deal:
“It goes back to having great partners. We did the Professional Bull Riding deal with IMG and now we’re able to bring this to Edmonton as an extension of that partnership.”
The belief is that the event will feature two title fights, but no bouts have been rumored for the show as of yet.
