Quinn Blacksmith is youngest 2-time champion in Montreal Fight League
Street fighting was a part of growing up for Quinn Blacksmith in Cree Nation of Oujé-Bougoumou, about 500 kilometres north of Montreal.
“My buddies would get into fights … Somehow [we] end up having to defend ourselves,” Blacksmith said.
In 2020, though, things changed for Blacksmith; he started practising mixed martial arts (MMA) for self-defence, training through a fitness program offered in the community.
Now at 20, Blacksmith is the youngest two-time champion in the Montreal Fight League (MFL).
