In preparation for his upcoming WRECK MMA lightweight title fight in Gatineau, Quebec, Jesse Gross, nicknamed “The Ghost,” sent out this message via CKSN to his hometown of Wallaceburg, Ontario. The quote shows Jesse’s pride in his hometown of Wallaceburg, and echoes the support many Wallaceburg and Chatham-Kent athletes feel as they move on to higher levels of competition away from home,

“A big thanks to all my Wallaceburg supporters. You guys have kept me going on this journey during the best and hardest of times. We’re a proud community that’s not to be taken lightly. When that ring announcer yells out “Fighting out of Wallaceburg….” you better believe I’ll be amped up and ready to go, as will everyone else from back home that’s watching.”
