"I like action-based sports and kabbadi is my favourite. I wanted to be associated with a sport on which I really believe in and so I bought a team in World Kabbadi League and Toronto will host my team," Singh, who had also started Global Fighting Championship (GFC) in Dubai, told reporters here today.
"I have been involved in it for the last one and half months and I think it is truelly global. I have named it on my name, 'Yo Yo Tigers' and I am really excited to see it on screen when it is covered in Sony Six," he added.
"I have already planned to roll out my next title in support of my team. It will be another peppy number which will also encourge the fans of my team," said Honey Singh, who has ruled the chartbusters with songs like 'Angreji Beat', 'High Heels' and 'Dope Shope'.
A personal venture headed by Punjab deputy chief minister Sukhbir Singh Badal, World Kabaddi League will follow the format of Formula One and will be played across four continents in countries such as UK, USA, Canada, UAE and India, starting August 9 at London.
