Horrible news... I hope he is okay though.  Any news on what condition it may be?  Isn't there anyone else in the company that can step up temporarily?

@ CashBrewyn
I don't think so... Babalu signed with Bellator, his contract starts January first and I think he'll be in the tournament.
I could be wrong thought... I hope I'm wrong!

Seems a bit weird they would cancel all the events just because the president is ill. Dunno but it really sucks for the fighters as well...

A world where Bosse hasn't fought in a year is a very sad world...

@ dielegende23
Most people I talked to think Instinct MMA won't be back.
2 facts, feel free to think whatever you want:
-Instinct MMA 1 had a huge crowd. Instinct MMA 2, 3 and 4 had very few people
-Instinct MMA 1, 2, 3 and 4 had some big names, who probably cost Instinct a lot of money.

It really sucks for the fighters, especially since it's the only MMA promotion in Québec. Ringside lost their license earlier this year and imo they won't have it back anytime soon.

On the Tapology Québec facebook page, Eric O'Keefe (he's involved with Ringside MMA and part of Tristar's coaching staff) wrote that Tristar Fight Night 1 will happen at the end of November and some fighters already signed contracts.

We'll see...

What about Wreck isn't that a Quebec based promotion?

They're based in Ontario. The reason Wreck are doing their events in the Province of Quebec is because MMA was banned in Ontario. The events are right on the border and if you look at the cards, they really don't have more than 2-3 Quebec fighters on each card.

But yeah it's in Quebec... Hopefully they'll add more Quebec fighters now
