I lived in Halifax for 5 years. If I still lived there I'd obviously go to that card, but I'd also want a lot more from it. It needs a strong co-main.

The latest on TJ Grant has been encouraging, enough so that I'm kind of expecting to see him booked in a co-main.

Huh? It has a top contender fight with Assuncao vs. Caraway. That's a better co-main than most cards.

Plus, a really exciting bout with Gagnon vs. Sterling. Winner there probably moves into the top 10 of that weightclass.

And you get both winners of TUF Nations.

I like the card overall and expect it to deliver a fun night of fights.

that would be nice. :D

a few representatives from TUF nations, it looks like. quite a few good fighters who aren't well known yet, too.

i still can't believe that gagnon vs. sterling match, it should be awesome! :D

Plus Jason Saggo, arguably the best Canadian prospect in MMA currently.
 
i don't know half these people on the card, poo card
 
Trivia: Elias Theodorou was on an episode of Comedy's Match Game before he got his shot in the UFC. I think he won but I'm not sure.
 
Chad and Elias looked really good on TUF and in their Finale wins. Olivier looked solid on the show as well despite falling short against Laprise. Saggo looked really good in his last UFC fight as well. There are a lot of good prospects on this card actually.
 
cant wait to go, and excited to see who they announce tj gets matched up with to make the card even better, wooooo

agreed. lots of potential for a great night of fights! :D
 
Yeah Assuncao and heck even Caraway deserve the spotlight of Co-Main. I think this could be Raphs fight that could get him some real attention. He hasn't had that signature win. He beat TJ but few thought he actually won.

Card is solid though Tarec/Rory has me drooling.

Ya he had a broke hand I believe on the show, he was also on dragons den as a bartender

just imagine that the card isn't happening and do something else that night.

also, how do you get to know who fighters are if you never watch them?
