Ryan Dickson, born in Burlington Ontario, is the current Hard Knocks Lightweight title holder. Ryan has knocked out or submitted every fighter he’s beaten. Formerly a hockey player, he battled and successfully overcame testicular cancer in 2013.

Jason Fischer, born in Redford Michigan, is known to MMA fans as “The Finisher” because of his submission and choke holds. Formerly a wrestler, Jason began in his pro careers in 2011, and signed with Bellator in 2012.

“The pro and amateur Fight Card for HK42 will includes a stellar line up of emerging star fighters,” Taub said. “Great match-ups like our marquee fight between Dickson and Fischer make for very engaging TV. You can count on Hard Knocks bringing more dramatic TV moments, more fights and more behind-the-scenes access than ever before.”
