    TKO is overlooked a lot but they’re one of few mid-level promotions with a good relationship with the UFC plus they use a UFC-spec Octagon and are the only other promotion doing so. They may not be the top promotion, even in Canada, but they put on some solid fights.

    Bosse will be interesting to watch following his loss but he does seem to have some potential in the sport.

    Even though this is for the TKO 34 event i was wanting to know how come Derek Gauthier was taken off the TKO 33 card? He just randomly was replaced on the fight card and there were no articles explaining anything. That guy is such a sweet fighter and will be representing Canada in no time!. and i think that TKO is the best organization in Canada, it is way better then HCF. HCF looks like it came from the ghetto.
