Ringside MMA: Triple Threat

Posted on | January 25, 2010 | No Comments

Montreal, January 22nd 2010 – Ringside MMA has made some major changes to the fightcard on the upcoming event ‘’Triple Threat’’ which is sceduled to take place on January 30th at the Claude Robillard Sports Complex in Montreal.

Guillaume DeLorenzi was forced to pull out due to an injury sustained in training camp. His fight with Joe Cronin will therefore be canceled. The Lee Villeneuve vs. Robert Cuman fight will also be canceled due to injuries sustained in training. Due to administrative reasons, Mike Ricci will not be able to face his opponent Kurt Southern. He will be replaced by Martin ‘’The Hammer’’ Grandmont (9-4-0). Grandmont, who fights out of Drummondville, Quebec is on a 4-fight winning streak and holds a championship title in another professional organization. He accepted this bout last minute without hesitation. This 160 lb match will be one to remember!

In the 145 lb division, Guillaume ‘’The Showman’’ Lamarche (5-2-0) FROM Team Bergeron will face Randy Steinke (5-3-0). Lamarche, who is known for his kickboxing skills, is a very versatile fighter winning 4 out of his 5 fights by submission. This fight could put Lamarche in title contention!

Well known fighter Yan ‘’Wild Thing’’ Pellerin (9-12-0) will also be on the upcoming card. Coming off a loss to Ringside champion Steve Bossé, he is determined to come back strong and make his presence known. He has been in the cage with some of the best such as Krysztof Soszynski, Marvin Eastmen, Icho Larenas, Bill Mahood, Patrick Côté, Jason MacDonald, Jonathan Goulet and former UFC Champion, Rich Franklin. Pellerin will make a great addition to the January 30th card and his opponent will be announced shortly.
