It was back when MMA was very very new to Canada. It was also during a time before he had a ground game. Since training with and coaching the likes of Rutten, Silva, Stout, Hominick, Henderson, Ryo Chonan, Baroni, need I go on, I am sure he can handle himself just fine.

The XFA is hoping you are diehard enough to link him to those past events and pluck down the cash to watch him fight.

According to you guys, although this guy sounds like he has good Muay Thai skills, he struggles in "MMA". Hopefully he has worked on and gotten better at his total MMA game and will be more well rounded.

Oh, yes I did, because I just read the article, too. Great, thanks so much Dieterick, I had no idea he was a big time coach and that was how he is a name.

Probably one of the best names the XFA has under contract. Its news because he is a name. Probably one of the best names the XFA has under contract.

He's been TKO'd all four times, and has only gotten older. I can’t imagine why Tompkins (o-4) would want to compete in MMA again. He’s been TKO’d all four times, and has only gotten older.
