Wreck MMA: Unstoppable on May 6th!

[keithlewis]

Wreck MMA is proud to announce details for Wreck MMA: Unstoppable on May 6th, 2011
at the Casino Lac-Leamy in Gatineau, Quebec. Presented by The Score, the event will
be headlined by Ottawa’s Craig ‘Farmer’ Brown who takes on one of the world's most
popular fighters, ‘Mr. International’ Shonie Carter.

A veteran of practically every promotion in the world, Carter has made Canada a
second home. With over 60 MMA bouts on his record, Carter is one of the world's most
experienced fighters having won titles around the globe. Brown is coming off an
injury that forced him off the last Wreck event and he’s looking to re-establish
himself as one of the country’s top middleweights. A win against the veteran Carter
may put Brown in a position to fight for the middleweight title this September at
the first event in Ottawa history.

In the co-main event, the Wreck Bantamweight Title will be on the line as John ‘The
Haggis Basher’ Fraser steps up to face Saskatoon’s undefeated prospect Eric Wilson.
Fraser is on a four fight win streak and in his last fight he defeated the talented
veteran Thierry Quenneville for a featherweight title. Wilson is coming off a win
against rising star Roland Delorme that cemented him as one of the nation’s top
bantamweights. A win against Fraser would put away any doubts whether Wilson is the
real deal and firmly establish himself among the elite.

In the second title bout of the night, Jesse ‘The Ghost’ Gross returns to Wreck to
face veteran Brad Cardinal for the Wreck Lightweight Title. This fight is Gross’
toughest challenge to date and will show where Gross stands among Canada’s top
prospects. Cardinal has been around long enough to not be affected by the hype
surrounding Gross and wants to leave Ottawa with some shiny new gold.

In a featured bout, Team Bushido's Nabil 'The Thrill' Khatib returns to Wreck as he
faces one of the bad boys of MMA, Markhaille 'Showtime' Wedderburn. Khatib's last
fight in Wreck ended controversially and Khatib is looking to leave no doubt with
this one. Both fighters have shown a great deal of heart and expect this one to be a
real test of will with the victor being the one who refuses to break.

In a fight of the night candidate, Nathan 'Gunner' Gunn from Thunder Bay takes on
Winnipeg's Lindsey Hawkes in what is expected to be a slugfest. The winner may also
have a title aspirations at the fall event in the nation's capital.

Also scheduled to appear are OAMA standouts Stephane Bernadel, Jeff Harrison and
Randy Turner alongside talented Ottawa based fighters. On the card are Ronin MMA's
Mustafa 'Mufasa' Khalil, Bluewater Martial Arts' Mike Reilly, Tapout Gatineau's
Pablo Santos and RAMA's Marc Lefebvre.
