LGIO Scraps 155 Tourney and Gatineau Shows

Canadian MMA news rumor..

By: Marc-Andre Drolet
Top MMA News has heard from several sources today that the Let’s Get it On promotion has scrapped their 155 pound tournament and has cancelled all Gatineau shows. It is rumored that issues with the Quebec Athletic Commission may be at the root of the problem. Several camps have told Top MMA News that problems with matchups and the size of the LGIO cage could be the culprit.


Apparently, LGIO decided to eliminate the Lightweight division and only hold the Welterweight tournament with all fights located at the River Cree Casino.

Tickets are still available for the Gatineau show on Ticketmaster despite these new rumors.

Attempts to contact President Elaine McCarthy by email and matchmaker Matt Stansell by text have been unreturned. This story will be updated as further news becomes available
