Wreck MMA: Bad Intentions on August 20th!
The time has come to announce that Wreck MMA will be back in Gatineau on Friday
August 20th to present Wreck MMA: Bad Intentions. But, this time around, Wreck MMA
is heading to the prestigious Casino du Lac-Lemay to showcase the top MMA event in
Gatineau.
In the main event of the evening, two of the top welterweights in Canada will be
facing off to determine the number one contender for the Wreck Welterweight Title.
After an impressive Wreck debut against the popular Louis-Philippe Carle, Simon ‘The
Mutant’ Marini returns to the Wreck ring to face the talented FIT MMA fighter Cory
Macdonald.
“Both these fighters have the talent to fight in the top organizations in the
world,” said Wreck matchmaker Alex Caporicci. “I believe the winner of this fight
can potentially take the next step and follow another Wreck veteran in Mark Holst
and make their way to the UFC, Strikeforce or to Japan.”
Macdonald has been eagerly anticipating a fight for about a year and is ecstatic to
be stepping into the Wreck ring and being featured in the main event. Macdonald
sports a 10-2-0 record and has wins against UFC veteran Edwin Dewees and talented
Canadians Matt Macgrath, Dan Grandmaison, Martin Grandmont and Rowan Cunningham.
In his last bout, Macdonald defeated Team Revolution member Thiago Goncalves. Marini
also came off a long layoff prior to his last bout and has a win against UFC Veteran
and former King of the Cage lightweight champion, Alberto Crane. Expect a lot of bad
intentions in this bout, as this is an opportunity to take their career to the next
level.
Making his return to Wreck is the Ottawa Academy of Martial Arts’ Remi ‘Bam Bam’
Morvan who looks to get back to his regular winning ways against Simms KnockDown
MMA’s Chance Whalen. Also returning after impressive MMA debut in April is RAMA’s
Jeffrey Laughren who will be facing the experienced Nick Portieous.
Wreck MMA is also proud to announce the MMA debut of Toronto’s Alex Ricci. Ricci is
a two-time Canadian Muay-Thai Champion and is looking to transform his successful
muay-thai career into a successful MMA career. But standing in his way is a fighter
with the same goals in mind. A veteran of muay-thai fights in Thailand and around
the world, Adrenaline MMA’s Adil ‘Rambo’ Abbas will be looking to spoil Ricci’s
coming out party.
Look for an announcement shortly with additional fights as they get signed and where
to buy your tickets for Wreck MMA: Bad Intentions!!
