Owen Carr has come a long way to get to where he is now, from studying martial arts in a concrete basement to winning international Tae Kwon Do championships. Having trained with Wanderlei Silva in Las Vegas, he has proven he’s not to be taken lightly. Carr now trains with Team Alpha Male in Sacramento, California. He was recruited by UFC fighter T.J. Dillashaw while training at Rafael Cordeiro’s gym, yet another professional who has seen incredible potential in Carr. Despite that talent and promise, Carr has a very tough challenge ahead in Louis Sanoudakis.

Noah Ali is also an exciting young talent out of Calgary and his battle with Regina’s Sean Quinn promises to deliver plenty of fireworks. Quinn is coming off a big win over Chris Day and is looking to extend his win streak. But Ali is confident of another triumph and is determined to not leave it up to the judges: “I am always looking to finish my fights … I see myself knocking out Sean Quinn or submitting him via arm bar or guillotine.”

Those two matches alone are worth the price of admission but there’s loads more action happening, including Nate Oses vs Alexi Argyriou, Mike Davis vs Keegan Oliver, Sean Michaels vs Brian Kong, Cody Clarke vs Felix Jimenez, and Samuel Franchi vs Sambath Khun. Gonna be a wild night! Check out the highlight vids!     — Robert Portis
