True North MMA

[cecede123]

With the bankruptcy of Canada's flagship MMA organization, TKO, the mixed martial arts market was now wide open north of the US border. However, this opening was short-lived, as the UFC veteran and until recently French-language broadcast commentator for the industry-leading company, Patrick Côté, provided capital to found a new Canadian organization. This is how True North MMA was born, based in Toronto, Ontario. However, Côté was very vocal at the press conference, saying that it was the entire Canadian market that he was targeting, and that it shouldn't be surprising to see True North roaming from coast to coast. Side and his organization will have big shoes to fill, since the last Canadians from TKO have had mixed success in the UFC, Charles Jourdain being probably the most successful. The last big name coming of TKO was maybe Ciryl Gane, great prospect in the Heavyweight division. The organization's first gala is scheduled to take place at the end of August.

 

******* I'm using the August update of the MW mod. It's a local to global story, but I won't use money restrictions. I however gave me some rules : to be realistic, I will let go my fighters to UFC until I'm High Level National in Canada. Otherwise, it wouldn't be realistic. As a feeder league for the UFC, I will enforce signing regens and game generated fighters coming from Canada. I give me the right to talk to move base 1 fighter by month, like TKO did with Ciryl Gane. But, it would have to be realistic, so no Americans, or Asiatics fighters as they have orgs in their respective areas. Since I may run in workers availability problems, I will enforce a 4 loss streak rule instead of my habitual 3 losses streaks before being cut.*********

First True North MMA event of its history is now set. In the main event, El Terror of El Savaldor Ivan Menjivar is coming out of retirement in order to give visibility to the new organization. He'll face the ever-dangerous Will Romero, who'll be looking to establish his name in the 145-pound division, and possibly position himself for an eventual inaugural championship fight. In the co-main event, veterans lightweight Jason Saggo and Alex Ricci are expected to provide sparks for the spectators attending. Both are formers UFC fighters and are giving some name value to the card. Also present at the event, prospects Adam Dyczka and Yoni Sherbatov will try to impress enough to fall in the eye of the UFC. Complete card goes like this :

 

Main Event (145 lbs) Ivan Menjivar vs Will Romero

It was a colorful evening for the few fans who traveled to Toronto for the inaugural True North event. The eight featured fights delivered the goods, with eight ending fights before the limit. The judges indeed had a quiet evening, while the fighters present at the event gave everything to provide the fans with finishes. The best fight of the night was unequivocally the one between Kurt Southern and Chris DeMarce, as the first round was a credit to Southern, only to see DeMarce come back from behind and finish the fight before the limit. The co-main event may have kept the amateurs on their toes, with a TKO just after 22 seconds of engagement. On the other hand, the final fight of the evening was a chess match for 4 rounds. Patrick Coté also took advantage of the event to announce the next event, which will take place in September.
