We have a good cruiserweight here in Vancouver named Kevin Reynolds, and Ontario has the talented Troy Ross.
We have the three world-class Romanians: Bute, Diaconu, and Dan Ion. Bermane Stivern seems to be a decent heavyweight, and Grzegorz Kielsa has been impressive so far.
And of course in MMA we have a bona fide superstar in GSP.
Kevin is a good fighter, but is not going be an international star. Entertaining and a lot of heart though. As far as BC goes, Mark Woolnough has the best shot at making it on the world scene, he has a lot of talent.
A prospect who is starting to impress me is Antonin Decaire. Undeafed, not the biggest puncher but he is pretty slick.
Are we saying actual Canadians? or are we counting their imports like Bute, Diaconu, Pascal, Alcine, Stevenson, Dan Ion, etc etc etc.......
Benoit Gaudet is actually pretty good IMO.
Pascal, Alcine and Stevenson all had extensive amatuer careers in Canada which would classify them as Canadian.
Bute was admopted and has clearly stated that Montreal is home and he has no intentions moving back to Romania.
My favorite currents are Ngoudjo the warrior, I am a Molitor fan, and I could classify Bute as Canadian. I am also a follow Pascal and Troy Ross.
exactly....
Outside of Hockey, Canada pretty much imports all its athletes from other countries.
Soon America will be claiming Mexicans as their fighters. I am surprised they are not doing the same for Puerto Ricans yet.
