If you want to fight in UFC you should probably have experience in at least one of the following:
King of the Cage
IFC
Gladiator’s Challenge
Before any of those you’d probably need some experience in something more regional:
Combat Zone
King of the Ring
Battle at the Beach
…list can go on for a while
These are basically small regional shows for beginners to get some experience. Wouldn’t say there’s a huge amatuer circuit, but these events allow fighters to get experience before trying to go pro.
MerryPrankster can probably go a lot more into it seeing as how he’s competed and is better friends with dudes like Jeff Ruth.
King of the Ring is in virginia beach and that don’t seem TOO far from you. They’ve got muay thai fights as well as mma.
Someone on this board has been talking about doing mma at that one, and I’m assuming it’s amateur.
So yah there might be a bunch of us baltimore guys at the next one on the 8th of May.
There’s another one in June and/or August too if May’s too soon.
I wanna fight Muay Thai in that event.
whoa, I just wanna watch…check out my LT match video again…I got a long way to go before I’m ready to go 15 min or even 9.
but, I didn’t like the LT rules or the headgear at all. IF I can change a couple of things in my life and get a good 3 month build up prior to it…I’d like to say I at least got my ass whupped in a mma fight.
