The Brantford Expositor is reporting that Six Nations police have charged the promoters of the Iroquois MMA Championship for hosting an illegal prize fight.

According to the report, Bill Montour, the president, director and secretary of the Grand River Athletic Corp.; James Procyk, the promoter of Iroquois MMA Championships; Dave Mair, head coach of Team Iroquois and Jason King, the commissioner of the Grand River Athletic Commission were the four charged.

The charges stem from the first event titled “Rumble on the Rez” which was held  on November 3, 2007. The card featured 8 fights with all but one ending in the first round. The report also indicates that Six Nations police are currently investigating the February event which featured UFC hall of famer Dan “The Beast” Severn.

Procyk was quoted in the Expositor saying, “The (Saturday) show will go on. There’s nothing we can do about the charges just now and we have a great program on Saturday. We’re hoping it’s our biggest turnout yet.”
