With Ontario removing its ban on allowing mixed martial arts fighting in the province, local promoters are already lining up potential cards for 2011
Scott Birkhof isn't sitting back and waiting for someone else to bring a mixed martial arts (MMA) card to Peterborough.
Just hours after the news broke that the provincial government is taking steps to regulate MMA fights in Ontario, Birkhof was on the phone Saturday (Aug. 14) making plans to bring MMA to the city.
"I am already in the midst of getting a portable cage ready that we can take to different venues," explains Birkhof, owner of Extreme Kickboxing and MMA and Xtreme Promotions.
If your buying new gear (though probably not a portable cage!) remember to look for fathead coupons before you buy!
