Edmonton, Canada bans all combat sports after Tim Hague's death...

[joe strong]

I'm so pissed off as my city is run by politically correct sissies who need to f**k off. It is a shame Tim Hague died but why ban all combat sports? So are they going to ban NHL hockey if some player dies in a fight or gets cut by a skate? Last night's card could be it. There was a big card planned for March but now who knows if it will happen? Edmonton use to be the city of champions now it's the city of sissies who need a safe space. Edmonton has become a joke. It is a year ban...

This will happen around the world if liberals are allowed to rule.

In March is Jelena Mrdjenovich was going to have her 50th career fight here. We have a few heavyweights who are on the cusp of a Canadian title shot. They were going to be in important fights for domestic rankings. Ryan Ford was going to be fighting on that card & he is moving up the world rankings at 175. Unless the decision is overturned the best card this city has seen since Foreman/Lakusta is not going to happen. They get nice 2000-3000 person cards at the Shaw 4 or 5 times a year for boxing. It's very disappointing...

can't they hold them at River Cree Casino? That's indian land. I don't think the City of Edmonton has any say there.

It is just the city of Edmonton who placed a moratorium on combat sports.
