FIGHTER TRAVEL

Athletes receive 30 cents per mile, per vehicle. Hotel is covered for amateur and frofessional athletes, as needed.

 

FIGHTER INSURANCE

We carry a $20,000 medical policy for our athletes.  There is a $500 deductible which the fighter is responsible for.

 

AMATEUR COMPENSATION

Amateurs receive no compensation outside of their fighter travel reimbursement.

 

EVENT PASSES

Each athlete receives two corner passes. No additional complimentary tickets are provided. Significant others, family members, and additional corners will have to purchase an event ticket. When makes them available, we will have discounted prices on tickets and tables.

 

PULLING OUT OF A FIGHT

If you are booked to fight, make sure you are 100 percent committed. If you pull out a fight suspiciously you will be given one more chance to prove yourself. If it happens again we will not book you in the future.  We will also tell every other promoter in the area about you. If you don’t want to fight, don’t apply. It hurts the event and insults the other athlete who is preparing for a fight when you do this. However, fighters do get injured and pull out of fights, so be prepared for last minute opponent changes.

 

AMATEUR WEIGH-INS & POINT DEDUCTION

Amateur fighters are new at fighting and cutting weight. Often fighters will miss weight by thinking they can cut like a pro. Be prepared for your opponent to miss weight. If this happens you can decline the fight or take the fight and they will lose a point in the first round. If you miss weight and your opponent won’t take the fight, you are not compensated for travel. 

 

INFO FOR YOUR CORNERMEN

First, learn to tape hands. Someone on your team needs this skill. What you will need -- vaseline, buckets, towels, sponge, ice pack, super glue, swabs, warm-up mits, kick shield, latex gloves, additional guaze, pre wrap, and tape. Cornermen must attend the fighter rules meeting. Know how to wrap hands.  If you don't, you can find instructional videos on YouTube.  

 

GLOVES

Fighters must use the gloves we provide. Amateurs need to return gloves after their fight. Pros are allowed to keep their gloves.
