Questions, questions, questions, it seemed there were nothing but question marks coming into the TKO 15 event that took place today in Montreal. Would the main event see the re-emergence of the Crow into the top contender that we saw before the Rivera fight? Would Jeremy Horn claim his first high profile victory at his new found 185 pound weight class? |

It looks like the TKO organization is stepping back into the international market with one of the biggest fights in their history. In the main event we will see homegrown talent David “The Crow” Loiseau stepping up big time to face one of the living legends of the sport of Mixed Martial Arts, Jeremy “Gumby” Horn. The rest of the card includes TKO stalwarts Steve “The Lionheart” Vigneault, Mark "The Machine” Hominick, Kyle Sandford, Stephan “The Rude boy” Potvin, and new blood, such as Chris Fontaine, Bill Mahood, and the much anticipated MMA debut of Nova Uniao Black belt Mark Bocek. |

The time had finally come and Pete Spratt would finally face off against TKO's welterweight goldenboy Georges St Pierre. Problems had plagued this fight since it was announced for TKO 13, and at times seemed like the fight would never happen. The first time out St Pierre injured his knee and was unable to compete, in between, there was controversy with an unknown impersonator calling into a radio show and talking smack about Pete Spratt claiming to be Georges St Pierre. In Nov more smack talk surfaced and It came to a head with Spratt firing back at St Pierre questioning his motives for dropping out of the first fight. "Rush" replied to a reporter from Montreal by saying "Spratt is soon going to wish that I dropped out of this fight too." |

TKO has come back from the dead and with the strength of TKO 13 “Ultimate Rush” behind them they are looking to build on the success of their last show. 10 bouts are scheduled for the card. which is a step down from the17 or so bouts they has scheduled for the TKO 13 show back in September. It looks like the main event from the 13 show will finally make's it's long awaited debut and both fighters couldn't be hungrier. It looks like Spratt and St Pierre are more than ready to square off and leave everything they have in the ring. Both fighters have been through a lot in the past few months and will be looking to stay active and put a stamp on their final fights of 2003. Who will reign supreme at TKO 14 "Road Warriors"? |

The “New and improved” UCC/TKO organization had a lot to live up to. With a previous show that was entertaining and packed with big name fighters, UCC 12 was a huge success, or was it? With the problems that plagued it outside of the ring the UCC organization had a black mark that would change it's name forever. It would seem with such a entertaining show behind the UCC organization,their strength would be growing by the day, but unfortunately that was not the case. The problems went public very quickly and the UCC organization had it’s previously strong name wading in the mud, now 8 months later, would the TKO organization have what it took to build on the strength of the fights that took place in the ring and not the fights that took place outside it? Would they be able do it without a their original main event in Pete Spratt Vs Georges St Pierre? With a new organization and a lot of hype to live up to it was time to put, up or shut up and put up they did. |

The TKO organization has undergone a major metamorphosis of late and the result of all the hard work is TKO 13 “Ultimate Rush”. A whopping 18 bouts are scheduled for the huge card. The reason for the abnormally large number of fights is that the former UCC organization used to run a feeder show called the "Proving Grounds" a show that would be equivalent to Pride having it's "The Best" show, now TKO has amalgamated the two shows with the “B” Show running first on the same night and the Main show right afterwards. The name “Ultimate Rush” comes from the main event fighter and UCC staple Georges “Rush” St Pierre, who will be in the biggest fight of his career against the very formidable UFC veteran Pete “The Secret Weapon” Spratt. |
