Sixteen fighters from Canada and Australia live, train, and compete for 44 days battling the elements, loneliness and each other in a quest for a coveted contract with the UFC.
After a brutal 48 hour journey the Australians finally arrive in the Quebec hills tired and jet-lagged. Tempers soon flare when the Aussies hear the Canadians gossiping that they're "scared" to fight, and reply with a message of their own.
As the results of the Kajan - Brenda fight reverberate through the House the Aussies rally around the fighter they call 'Coach', Zein Saliba. But he's up against one of the best middleweights in Canada, Elias Theodorou, who sports an 8 and 0 record.
Canadian welterweight Chad Laprise is the most feared striker in the house with a career built around his devastating knock-out punch. But growing up in poverty, Chris 'The Savage' Indich knows how to fight for survival and isn't afraid of Laprises power.
Following his impressive vicotry, Chris Indich has become a hero to Australia's 19 year old 'wild child', Tyler Manawaroa. As the most highly-rated middleweight in Australia, Tyler has become the House 'pest', irritating friend and foe alike.
Australian welterweight Richie Walsh struggles to hide an injury as he prepares to fight Canadian Matthew Desroches. As a member of the Canadian military, Desroches has been insulted by the Aussie's moose decorations and vows to take revenge on Walsh.
Four time Judo Olympian Dan 'the Grizzly Bear' Kelly is a big man with a bad temper who faces Canadian striker Sheldon Westcott, a self-described "Ultimate Geek" due to his obsession with MMA statistics.
The final fight in the welterweight division is the fight everyone has been waiting for. Australia's teenage phenom Jake Matthews is one of the fastest rising talents in MMA. He faces 24 year old Olivier Aubin-Mercier who many are calling "the next GSP."
