    simply because there is no money to be made by the state from it.

    it's all about money bub... this much i know - same reason pot is illegal, same reason herbal medicines are becoming illegal, same reason for everything the local, state, or federal government gets involved with - they want a slice of the pie or there is no bake sale. period.

    Do you ever post something that contributes to this forum?

    Do you want to know why unregulared shows are bad? Not a huge goverment conspiracy, not aliens, not forced vaccinations

    They are dangerous
    NO insurance to proctect fighters
    Often no weigh ins
    Often gross mis-matches
    Often no safety rules
    Poorly trained refs. or no refs at all
    NO reporting of injuries to commission
    there is actually A LONG LIST

    really, your glip, uninformed statements are a waste of time, can't you find something else to do except take up space here?

    of course, you're just too blind to see it.

    am i supposed to have pity on egocentric guys and gals that feel the need to prove themselves all the time?? i say let the idiots fight if they want to... if they get killed or maimed thats one less fool humanity has to deal with.
    really, your glip, uninformed statements are a waste of time,
    a highly subjective statement... the same can be said about making money teaching people to beat someone else up.
    can't you find something else to do except take up space here?
    i have plenty of other things that i do also... i enjoy myself immensely on these forums... what - am i bothering you?

    seeing things that don't actually exist is the sign of a mental disorder

    I suspect that you, like most people who dabble in questions/fake "kung fu" know you have no real skills and you resent those who actually fight.

    IE that is really YOUR problem...

    missing the obvious is a sign of spiritual blindness.

    your definition of kung fu is quite different than mine... that much is obvious.

    i have no problems, only solutions.

    awwwww... big bad fighter guy is scared of body odor and a little bit of dirt under his nails.

    The crap that many schools do is not the crap I was taught or train in or teach.

    Dam nit... it made sense when it was running through my head.

    Sounds like a good idea.

    Two suggestions:
    1) No head gear. If ground game is allowed there's no way its not shifting or popping off. If a fighter is not comfortable fighting without the head gear they shouldn't go to something like this because they very well may face amore seasoned guy who is.

    2) You have to change that ultimate weight class. A 187 guy should not have to face off with a 220 lbs regardless of how few people are drawn. It's not fair.

    187- 197
    198 to 210
    211-220
    221-245
    245- and up

    Let the big guys fight men their own size.

    Also curious, is this a tournament with multiple fights? Or just one fight?

    How long were the rounds? Ring or cage?

    This sounds like something TCMA could use but you should try to sanction it. Move it to Jersey if you have to. But then it may draw MMA folks and TCMA guys will probably back out by the bushel.

    Oh well. There's plenty of venues in NJ and Conn for guys that want it.

    Best of luck. Keep everyone safe.

    I talked to the guys who are holding the event and they says it's not MMA. I remember fighting in the Fu Jow Pai events which allowed elbows, knees, and no more than 2 or 3 strikes to an opponent on the ground. I fought Jonas Nunez in one of those tournys. The fights were held in the auditorium at the school right near Confucius Plaza. I guess it was legal then.
    btw, I'm going to Fajardo to work out with some WC guys in Sept. Where on the Island are you?

    They may not be calling it MMA, but the rules (what they are allowing) seem to put them in the MMA catagory. Submissions and striking, headgear or not, is considered MMA. From what I hear, schools can get closed down for hosting these events.

    I'm sure they go on all the time, but it would seem like advertising it on the web would increase the chances of getting found out.

    I did ask if it was alright to post the event and was told it was OK. Hopefully everything will work out fine for them.

    My 2nd wife was from Isabella. I'll pm you when I get a flight. It would be good to meet some other KF people on the Island.
