Wreck MMA: Unite for Brian’s Fight
Robert Guertin Arena in Gatineau, Quebec
Date: April 16th

Fitshop.ca and Wreck MMA are excited to announce some additions to Wreck MMA: Unite for Brian’s Fight that will take place on Friday April 16th, 2010 at the Robert Guertin Arena in Gatineau, Quebec.

After a rocky-like Wreck debut, Ronin MMA's Nick 'The Ninja of Love' Denis will now be headlining the event against Team Quest standout Ian 'The Barn Owl' Loveland for the Wreck Bantamweight Title. Denis is coming off an impressive come from behind victory against Sean Quinn and is looking to bring his world class talent to the ultra-exciting Loveland. A teammate of Chael Sonnen (#1 contender for the UFC Milddleweight Title) Loveland loves to stand and bang and recently won his fifth straight fight by knocking out UFC veteran Doug Evans with a head kick. The winner of this bout will be the first ever champion in Wreck history!

Greenberg Movie Premiere
Wednesday, March 24 @ Empire 7 - 7:00pm

Roger Greenberg (Ben Stiller), single, fortyish and at a crossroads in his life, finds himself in Los Angeles, house-sitting for six weeks for his more successful/married-with-children brother. In search of a place to restart his life, Greenberg tries to reconnect with old friends including his former bandmate Ivan (Rhys Ifans). But old friends aren't necessarily still best friends, and Greenberg soon finds himself spending more and more time with his brother's personal assistant Florence (Greta Gerwig), an aspiring singer and also something of a lost soul. Despite his best attempts not to be drawn in, Greenberg and Florence manage to forge a connection, and Greenberg realizes he may at last have found a reason to be happy.
