- 4-24-09: Today the ISCF received a DVD from the event Promoter (Marvin
Crain, February 21st, 2009 - Idaho Falls, Idaho, USA, Mad Marvin's Cage
Warriors', SMACK DOWN) to review an unsportsmanlike action of by Mr.
Soloman that he did after the bout above. The referee (Mr. Matt May)
stopped the bout due to an armbar submission. Directly after the stop, Mr.
Solomon acted in an unsportsmanlike manner when he pushed the referee. After
the review of this bout the ISCF concluded
that Mr. Soloman will be suspended for his actions. Normal disciplinary
action for this infraction is a 6 month suspension and a $500 fine and letter of
apology to the event official. However, as for Mr. Solomon, the ISCF Officials reviewing the fight footage agreed
that the push was not a violent "Shove" However, the rules are
clear. A fighter may NEVER touch or physically attack in an aggressive
way an event official. Due to the agreement of the contact, the ISCF has concluded that Mr. Solomon will be
suspended 70 days from the date of the incident (February 21st, 2009).
Suspension will be over on May 2nd, 2009. ISCF
is also requiring Mr. Soloman to write a letter of apology to the
Referee, Mr. Matt May, for his actions. This letter must be sent here to
the ISCF Headquarters at ISCF, P. O. Box 1205, Newcastle, CA, 95658. If no
letter is received by April 30th, 2009, a fine of $500 will be added to
Mr. Soloman's disciplinary action along with an added 6 month suspension
to begin on May 3rd, 2009 and last until October 3rd, 2009 with the payment of
his fine and letter of apology.

STILL NO
Amateur Sanctioning Bodies
Officially Approved In Illinois...
Amateur fight sports (Kickboxing & MMA) are going
through some tough times in the State of Illinois. Although the first two
reviews for amateur sanctioning bodies was held two weeks ago, as of today,
there still are no amateur sanctioning bodies approved to sanction amateur
Kickboxing or MMA Events in Illinois. The review for the ISCF and IKF
was suppose to be today, but was rescheduled for a week from today, Tuesday,
February 24th.
A statement from Rafael Caro II of the Illinois State
Professional Athletic Unit, Division of Professional Regulation, Illinois
Dept. of Financial and Professional Regulation reads:
Tuesday, February 17, 2009
Please
note that as of right this minute, there are still NO
sanctioning bodies approved in the State of Illinois. So, that being the
case, there aren't any amateur events allowed yet. We do know about one event
(Southern Illinois) and are dealing with that now.
Although no Amateur sanctioning bodies have been approved, one
of the organizations "Accepted, but not Officially Approved"
choose to do their own thing. Two weeks ago, the most well known of the
"Rubber Stamp
Sanctioning Bodies," Kick International and another
Illinois Sanctioning body underwent their review to be accepted by the Illinois
Athletic Commission (IAC) to sanction Amateur Kickboxing & MMA
Events in Illinois. After both sanctioning bodies went through their review,
they were voted on by the IAC for acceptance. After a closed session,
the IAC invited everyone back into their meeting room and announced that both
were accepted. However, although the other sanctioning body officials stayed at
the meeting to see if they were accepted or not, the representatives of Kick,
Frank Babcock and Ted Welsh both left after their review. Someone
may have past on information to them saying they were accepted, but what they
were not told was that although both were accepted, neither
was given approval to sanction events in Illinois until they made changes and
additions to their rules and regulations to be "Officially"
APPROVED.
The biggest issue with Kick with the IAC was
blood testing. The IAC was FIRM that they would make blood
testing for amateur fighters a MANDATORY requirement for all accepted
amateur sanctioning bodies. Although the other organization confirmed they would
do so, both Babcock and Welsh of Kick hesitated, then
never confirmed whether they would make this a requirement of their sanctioning.
This alone should have been a reason not to accept Kick as an accepted
sanctioning body at the time. Upon the IAC's announcement, nearly
everyone (except for the 2-3 in the room who were kick associates.) in
the room was very surprised that the IAC accepted Kick
International, even knowing they needed to add and or change some of their
rules and regulations before being Officially Approved.
Without official approval from the IAC, Kick
went ahead and confirmed sanctioning of an event on February 27th in Illinois.
The additional surprise was the added sanctioning body letters on the event ads.
A sanctioning body created by the events promoter (Jim Boucher) known as
PKL. Not only was PKL never approved by the IAC, they
have never even applied. Adding to this, they are not even a real sanctioning
body. They are just some letters the promoter put together for his own event
titles.
Making things more confusing for the IAC was the
Amateur event held in Southern Illinois two weekends ago that was illegal since
no Amateur sanctioning bodies have been approved yet. "Although not
confirmed," rumor has it that Kick was involved in that event
as well.
Another addition required by the IAC was a major jump
in insurance requirements for Amateur events. A minimum insurance amount of
$25,000 medical, $25,000 accidental death and dismemberment and $500,000
liability/property damage is now a mandatory requirement. All the added IAC
requirements can be found on the ISCF
Illinois Rules page found by clicking HERE.
One topic that has been a big discussion has been the blood
testing requirements. Amateur Promoters need to know that first of all, all MMA
fighters must be a minimum of 18 years of age. ONLY Amateur MMA fighters are
required to have the Illinois Mandatory Blood Testing done. The Blood Testing
DOES NOT apply to Amateur Kickboxing or Karate tournaments for competitors of
ANY Age.

FINALLY
ISCF Is Official In Tennessee!
Tonight the ISCF was informed that the "Letter Mistake"
in Tennessee has finally been corrected. Tennessee Commissioner Neil
Frauwirth informed the ISCF tonight
that the ISCF was officially approved in
Tennessee during todays
Tennessee Commission Meeting.
As reported in December here on the ISCF
news page, (December 22nd,
2008) the on September 30, 2008 the Tennessee Athletic Commission had
approved Four Amateur Sanctioning Organizations For MMA & Boxing. One of
them was for boxing, USA Boxing and 3 others for Kickboxing and MMA which
included the IKF, International
Kickboxing Federation, WKA, World Karate Association and the
ISKA, International Sport Kickboxing Association. However the
letters ISCF were not listed as part of
the accepted MMA organizations.
The original problem was created when someone associated with
the Tennessee State Commission believed that the IKF
operated as do other Kickboxing Sanctioning bodies such as the ISKA and
WKA, where they sanction MMA under their "Kickboxing"
Sanctioning Bodies. As everyone here knows, MMA is not Kickboxing so the IKF does not sanction MMA.
The IKF Sanctions KICKBOXING
& MUAY THAI. HOWEVER, the IKF's
Sister Organization, the ISCF, International
Sport Combat Federation DOES sanction MMA. In fact, the ISCF was the first ever MMA Sanctioning Body in the
world and is the Largest MMA Sanctioning Body in the World today.
According to the Commission, the IKF
was approved as an Amateur "MMA" Sanctioning body in
Tennessee. With this thought, the ISCF "Rules"
were approved with the Commission, but promoters were told they had to use the
IKF letters instead of the ISCF Letters as their sanctioning body. This
explains why the ISCF letters and name
were not included in the initial
State of Tennessee press release issued back in October,
about their approval of the Amateur MMA and Kickboxing Sanctioning bodies.

Coker (Left).
The multi-year agreement calls for SHOWTIME to produce
and televise up to 16 live events per year including Strikeforce world
championship events as well as a series dedicated to showcasing up-and-coming
fighters in the sport. The initial championship event is schedule for Saturday,
April 11, 2009 at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif. The fight card will be
announced at a later date.
"We are very excited to have the opportunity to
deliver live Strikeforce events on the SHOWTIME premium television platform,"
said Coker.
"SHOWTIME is a forward-thinking innovator with a
reputation for producing outstanding original programming in sports and
entertainment. They have been a phenomenal partner in the past and we are
looking forward to growing our relationship with them and bringing the
Strikeforce brand of MMA to millions of SHOWTIME subscribers."
"Strikeforce
has a history of presenting high-quality, compelling mixed martial arts
events and we are thrilled to be able to bring their world-class events to our
subscribers," said Hershman.
Hershman was responsible for pioneering the network's
entry into MMA in 2007, when SHOWTIME became the first premium network
to televise the explosive sport.
He continued, "This relationship with Strikeforce will
allow SHOWTIME to continue to deliver some of the best MMA match-ups in the
rapidly growing sport as well as to expose the future champions of MMA to our
audience."
The agreement reunites SHOWTIME and
"Strikeforce following their
successful "Shamrock vs. Baroni" event,
presented by SHOWTIME PPV® in 2007. In the
main event, former UFC middleweight champion and MMA legend, Frank
Shamrock, submitted knockout artist, Phil "The New York Badass"
Baroni, in the second round of action whereby Shamrock became the
first-ever "Strikeforce World
Middleweight Champion.
The historic event was followed up with a live SHOWTIME
telecast of one of the sport's most anticipated showdowns of all-time "Shamrock
versus undefeated IKF World Kickboxing Champion Cung Le"
(Left) on March 29, 2008. In a battle that has since been proclaimed "Fight
Of The Year" by industry experts and critics, Le seized the
"Strikeforce middleweight
crown by pouring on a relentless offensive and fending off Shamrock's
counter attacks before breaking the defending champion's arm with a hard
roundhouse kick and forcing Shamrock to retire from the bout between
rounds three and four. |

ISCF's
Connection To
Strikeforce
RESURGENCE! This
one word is the description of the job the
International
Battle League - IBL has ahead as it begins it's "Resurgence"
back into the MMA World again with several fresh ideas that hope to make the
2009 IBL
Season more organized with more exposure and easier to follow for everyone
involved.
This time last year the IBL was an exciting new organization that many
wanted to be a part of. The letters IBL were quickly a hot topic on MMA Message
boards around the USA with many watching closely to see how the new
independently team owned IBL was going to do in the hotbed of todays MMA
as compared to the failed IFL.
Teams signed on quickly, more than twice the amount the
IBL
projected for the opening season and everyone was eager to start. However, many
quickly learned there was more to owning a team than just paying a fee and
signing the team agreement.
As part of the upcoming 2009 season,
IBL
Commissioner Steve Fossum announced a few days ago that at the end of
the 2009 IBL
Season, President of Strikeforce, Scott Coker has agreed to sign on 3-5
of the Top IBL
Fighters in the League. If Coker and his Team see more talent, they will
make additional offers as desired.

STRIKEFORCE®
INKS DEAL WITH PRO
ELITE
By Mike Afromowitz
LOS ANGELES, CA:
In a transaction signaling the dawn of a
new era in the world's fastest growing sport, world championship mixed martial
arts (MMA) organization
Strikeforce®, has acquired certain fighter
contracts from ProElite, Inc, the parent company of former
Strikeforce® co-promoter, Elite Xtreme
Combat (EliteXC).
Strikeforce® also acquired other specific assets
of ProElite, including a library of EliteXC
events, which were distributed live on either CBS or Showtime
Networks.
"This is a tremendous development that will bolster
the Strikeforce® roster and allow us to produce even more
competitive matchups between top fighters," said Scott Coker, (L)
Founder and CEO of Strikeforce® "Some of these athletes have
been on the sidelines for a while now and are eagerly waiting to return to
competition. We look forward to providing them with the opportunity to do so in
the next few months."
EliteXC burst onto the MMA scene with "Destiny,"
the first live, SHOWTIME®-televised MMA
fight card in history, on February 10, 2007. Held at Southaven Mississippi's
DeSoto Civic Center, the main event pitted Shamrock against Brazilian
Jiu-Jitsu expert, Renzo Gracie.
The promotion made history again by bringing, for the first
time, a live MMA event to the CBS Television Network on May 31, 2008.
SCOTT COKER

martial arts promoter for over 23 years, Coker has gained widespread
acclaim among industry colleagues and the media, including Rolling Stone
magazine, Yahoo! Sports, and The San Jose Mercury News. Coker elevated
his 14-year-old Strikeforce® organization to become a major player in the
World's fastest growing sport.
Strikeforce's® inaugural MMA event hosted a capacity
crowd of 18,265 at San Jose's HP Pavilion on March 10, 2006. The live gate
figure also broke the then all-time record for attendance at an MMA event held
in North America.

Amateur Sanctioning
Approval
In Illinois
SETTING THE
FACTS STRAIGHT AMONGST THE BAD RUMORS
This past Tuesday the Illinois State Professional Athletic Unit
Division of Professional Regulation Financial and Professional Regulation held
the first of two meetings in regards to the approval of Amateur Sanctioning
bodies in Illinois. This first meeting the commission interviewed two of the 5
Amateur Sanctioning body applications, KICK and Combat Consulting.
After each groups interview the Commission voted to approve each sanctioning
body with several conditions of some of their rules and regulations that need
adjustments or changes. Once these adjustments and changes have been accepted,
these two sanctioning bodies will be allowed to sanction both Amateur MMA and
Amateur Kickboxing in Illinois. However, all adjustments and changes will first
need to be approved by the Commission for them to get the green light to
sanction amateur events.
ISCF and IKF President Steve Fossum attending this
first of two meetings even though the ISCF
and IKF was not on the first meeting
schedule. Sadly to say, some people walked away with the wrong idea about the
results of the first meeting. Already associates of KICK International
as well as the heads of KICK International themselves have been heard
claiming that they are one of only two accepted amateur sanctioning body in
Illinois with no need of revising their rules or regulations and that no other
sanctioning bodies will be approved.
The main comment we have been informed that the KICK
International guys are saying reads something like, "Only us and
Combat Consulting were approved and they said no to ISCF, IKF and ISKA and that
they will need to re-apply."
This of course is totally false and it's sad that the KICK
guys are making such accusations, but we would expect nothing less from them.
The ISCF and IKF
(Along with the ISKA) were not in a sense, "turned down or turned
away" by any means. The ISCF and
IKF knew they were not on the agenda to be
reviewed by the board for this first of two meetings.
The reason is because ISCF, IKF
and ISKA got their paperwork in "After"
the other two did and they did not have time to review ISCF,
IKF and ISKA because of how
long the reviews were in addition to all their other agenda items on for this
first meeting. Mr. Fossum attended the meetings simply because he wanted
to hear everything the commission talked about along with discuss the new rules
and regulations with some of the members of the commission in person. "Being
there was of great value." Said Fossum. "Even though
we were not on the agenda to be reviewed, it gave me an opportunity to hear the
many items of discussion among the many in attendance." The ISCF and IKF
review will be on February 17th, along with the ISKA and another
sanctioning body.
The State of Illinois has made a mandatory/minimum rules
requirements for any and all Amateur Sanctioning bodies for MMA (With some
rules applying to kickboxing as well) and the ISCF
has posted them off of their Rules
Page. The page link can be accessed by clicking
