MMA On The Way Back To GP

February 21, 2012

 A new Mixed Martials Arts show is on paper for Grande Prairie.

The City's Combaitve Sports Commission today approved an event licence for Ken Kupsch and KNK Promotions to bring MMA back to the Swan City for April 28th at the Crystal Centre.

Commssion Chair, Kevin O'Toole, says Kupsch brings a strong resume to the table.

"The promoters have just shy of 60 fights, of events that he's hosted in Canada, so he's got the experience, he's go the people in his corner, you might say."

KNK Promotions has to sign a contract with the Crystal Centre and put up a $20k security deposit by March 6th - if those stipulations aren't met, the event licence will become void.
