Maple City Cage Fighting SOLD OUT Debut This Weekend
Maple City Cage Fighting (MCCF) makes its debut this Saturday (Oct 3) with a live 14-fight amateur MMA card at the Chatham Banquet Hall on Merritt Ave (the former CAW Hall).
Thomas Armstrong, owner and instructor at Gracie Barra Chatham and the founder of MCCF, says the mission statement of the fight series is to provide the most prestigious amateur mixed martial arts events to give local fighters a place to start building their career with integrity and fairness.
“We’re all really excited for this. It’s a chance to build the amateur MMA ranks here locally and across Cananda,” said Armstrong. “We keep bringing up our own athletes and if they’re inclined to do so, they then have a chance to turn over into the pros.”
Tickets have sold extremely well in advance, with a sold out debut event. MCCF will follow up the inaugural card with an event in March of 2016.
