When King of the Cage Canada heads to Yellowknife next month to host its latest event on September 17^th, fans from the Northwest Territories will have no shortage of fighters from the Canadian region to cheer for. One of them will be light-heavyweight Zach Blaber, who will be looking to record his sixth pro win when he squares off with fellow KOTC vet Jon Ganshorn.

“I spend half of my time in Fort Smith and half of the time in Edmonton,” said the 29 year-old Blaber, who also operates two businesses alongside his wife.  “It means a lot to me to fight in Yellowknife. To be a part of the first pro event in NWT and such an established organization like King of The Cage; I am honoured to be in the main event. The MMA scene in the north is still in its infancy but is growing with its popularity.”
