So is John Alessio not fighting? I dont see his weight.

Mania,

John Alessio is not on the list of fights above

So Mike Pyle turned down a fight for the belt in EliteXC because he felt he wasn’t being marketed properly. And he signs with THIS company? And is fighting Damir Mirenic? He just lost to Jake Shields in EliteXC in what was supposed to be for the WW belt.

Maybe Mike Pyle doesn’t understand that there is an exchange rate and the Canadian dollar isn’t worth as much as the American dollar…

1.00 CAD
        
=
        
1.00122 USD

you were saying?

anyway, I live in Calgary but I don’t plan on going to the show, to be honest I don’t expect the show to do well, there has been little/no advertising at all for it.
too bad because the card looks pretty good.

Actually VioletMike I guess you have not been paying too much attention to the Canadian dollar not that there is any reason for you to lol but as of yesterday the canadian dollar is trading at 1 Canadian dollar = 1.0008 U.S. dollars.

I am from Calgary and going to this. It should be pretty sweet concidering Randy is supposed to be there to corner one of his fighters.

Little to no advertising pr0cs??? Do you go to any gyms or open up any newspapers cause its all I have been seeing is ads for it for the last month :s

Mania,

Yeah, he’s not fighting. My bad. In my own defense, it says this on the official HCF Web site:

MMA legend Randy Couture will be cornering John Alessio and Mike Pyle.

Even the poster says it. But it appears Alessio has been replaced by Brendan Seguin. I must have missed something and assumed he was still on the card.

David Loiseau!

Man what happened to this guy? He is a tough dude and has had a rough past year. Hope he gets back on track and we see him work his way back up.

Thanks for the correction guys! That’s interesting. I have never been to Canada before, and I was just thinking back to the days when you buy a book or something and it has the USA price and the Canadian price. It used to be something like $5 Canadian was equal to like $4 American.

Just out of curiousity, when did the two values get so close?

He looks fit:

No problem Mike tried to do it in the nicest way possible since I know for the most part most Americans could careless about the neihboors to the north, too worried about border jumpers to the south :P The two values got really close this year with the Canadian dollar rising due mostly to our crazy real estate market and of course the American dollar slipping. Glad to be of help :)

As if this is not televised on PPV or fightnetwork.

All the promo posters and cfseries.com state to watch them on The Score Television Network, however, the Score’s TV listings mention nothing about the event until next Saturday (Feb 9th), which they’ve given a 1 hour timeslot at 8pm. Will this just be a highlights show of the event? Sucks that it’s not offered on PPV or the Fight Network. I guess the Fight Network doesn’t want to cut into their gay-ass wrestling schedule.

Who’s the guy fighting Nog? His head looks like something I would use to scrub my terlet.

I hope the Crow gets back on the right track, he was one of my favorites.

Actually, the guy fighting Nog is probably the best HW Canada has produced in years. Gouwenberg is relatively high on the Canadian mma scene. He is a big tough striker. Only one of his 5 wins went the distance. The rest were all KO’s. Nog is definately his biggest fight to date. I think Nog will sub him but here’s hoping Gouwenberg gets the KO.

I am kind of stoked about HCF actually. They are gobbling up some serious free agents and talent. Since this seems to be their biggest card ever, I am surprised that Babalu isn’t on it. In my opinion, he is their most well-known fighter.

HCF needs to merge with TKO and MFC to create a UFC rival in Canada.

Mania – do you know if the fights tonight are televised?

ViolentMike,
The CAD dollar starting getting close after the sub prime mortgage crisis really hit in the USA. The Canadian economy in the western provinces is hot. At one time in November the CAD dollar was 10% more. But that was too high and the dollar has gone down since. But basically the have been par since October. So fighting in Canada is the same cash and Calgary has alot of cash as they are a oil city. I’m from Saskatchewan!!

David Loiseau!

He’’l be fighting for HCF on March 29th 2008 in Quebec

Violent Mike,
Congratulations on not watching the news. Ignorance is bliss.

Im bummed this is not watchable in my area, and bummed further that i threw away all my canadian dimes.

Is this show streaming online anywhere?

Calgary is the texas of Canada. They pay less taxes on the dollar in Calgary then anywhere else in canada. In fact the taxes are just over 50 percent less in Calgary so you keep a lot more of that cash that is at par or higher then usa dollar. Stampedes, rodeos, cows, angus steaks and wrestling. Calgary is texas without guns. [least that aren’t officially licensed as hunting [cough] guns. A shotgun on the back of the window in a pickup truck in calgary is not an uncommon site though. They are also the home of only hot air giant cowboy boot balloon that I’m aware of.

Ohh and I meant to add Calgary is also the only Canadian city I’m aware of that you can still legally ride a horse down town in.

I am bummed this is not watchable in LA. Garett Davis is a phenominal fighter with a big future. One to watch!

Garret Davis is a phenominal fighter in awesome condition. If fought again today he could win, even against Thomas Shulte. Garett is ready for a big future. Get on another fightcard ASAP,Garett. You rock!

Garrett davis is the next biggest thing to the alantic accord here on the east coast of canada, where he grew up. i hope garrett gets all the oppertunities he deserves to become the champion, we all here in newfoundland support his efforts climbing to the top of the mma. Good Luck Garrett!!!

Anyone know what happened with Loiseau? Why was the crowd booing? The crow fight well and lose?

I sat Ringside last night for the show and it was awesome.

garret got schooled

Very good fights, Very good event

I though Jason Day had as much right to win as David Loiseau. Loiseau didn’t do any damage in any round. Another 30 seconds and The ref would have called the fight due to TKO in the 2 round after Day turned Loiseau and beat the crap out of him.

So Mike Pyle turned down a fight for the belt in EliteXC because he felt he wasn’t being marketed properly. And he signs with THIS company? And is fighting Damir Mirenic? He just lost to Jake Shields in EliteXC in what was supposed to be for the WW belt.

Maybe Mike Pyle doesn’t understand that there is an exchange rate and the Canadian dollar isn’t worth as much as the American dollar…

Well Mike made more in this fight than he did for Jake. And it was in American dollars
