Every month, MMA Empire will bring you a comprehensive list of any and all Canadian fighters who will be competing in MMA events outside Canada. Check back every week to keep up to date with all the results.
At the moment, there are no Canadians fighting in the UFC Octagon in August, but there are some huge matchups in the PFL Playoffs and elsewhere in the world, so we’ll still have lots to pay attention to this month.
