Interview with Chris Therien below
12-year NHL defenseman Chris Therien talks about working with ‘Ice Wars’ prize fighting on ice, which takes place May 21st from Edmonton and on FITE TV. Chris also spoke about how he got involved in this event, the toughest player he ever fought and which former NHL player he thinks could have transitioned into MMA.
“Probably Craig Berube, he’s cooky enough. He’s extremely skilled with his hands. There’s a lot of guys, I go through the list of people I’ve been involved with. I think there are tons of guys that would have done very well in MMA if they had done it earlier. Some guys were just too big, just bomb punchers and it’s not as entertaining.”
