MMA Or CAGE FIGHTS?

If you have ever worn an ISCF Shirt that has the ISCF logo on it, you may have had someone ask, "What's MMA?" Then when you explain to them it's "Cage Fighting" they always reply with, "Oh... OK."

Well, for that very reason, the ISCF will soon offer a choice of web address logos. The usual logo will remain the same with ISCFMMA.com, but we have also acquired the web address, ISCFCageFights.com. The new address is not a different web site, it just links directly to the existing ISCF Site but has a different address. The ISCF will soon offer additional merchandise from shirts to hats etc. etc. with the new web address. This way, many of us will no longer need to explain to those we meet, "What is MMA?"



FULL TOURNAMENT RESULTS COMING TOMORROW!

2008 ISCF World Classic Amateur Championships!

Two things were promised prior to this weekend. All 81 Amateur MMA Fighters committed to themselves to give 110% and leave it all in the Cage in their quest for one of the ISCF World Classic Title Belts. The other promise was made by the ISCF to produce the best show possible with the best awards ever for the Amateur MMA Athletes who showed up to "Walk The Walk" at this years 2008 ISCF World Classic... The outcome...

BOTH PROVED TRUE!

There are many stories to tell about this past weekend. As well as all the Prelim results from Saturdays ISCF World Classic action.

Iowa Fighters
Talk Up MMA Training & Upcoming
ISCF MMA World Classic

A few moments ago, several Iowa MMA fighters did an interview on local Rock 108 (107.9) - www.rock108.com station. The 4 fighters, Chad Weyland (1-0, 154, 5'8" 30, 9-9-77) Mike Powell (1-0, 145, 5'6" 28, 11-27-79) Joe Ayala (5-0, 135, 5'9" 25, 7-25-82) and Josh Bumgarner (10-4, 164, 6'1" 25, 5-21-82) all took turns talking about the sport, the event and what it takes to be an MMA fighter.

All 4 are contenders in this weekends ISCF MMA World Classic at the US Cellular Center in Cedar Rapids Iowa. They also took some time to thank their sponsors of course. All are from Waterloo, Iowa, USA and trained by Russ O'Connell.

As of this posting there are 102 Amateur MMA Fighters still confirmed to fight out of the original 121 who registered. At 102 fighters it's still way ahead of the first ISCF MMA world Classic held in Cedar Rapids last year. In that first event, there were 103 registered fighters but by this time (Prior to the weigh-ins) that number had dropped down to only 76. After weigh-ins, 58 made weight and fought in the 46 total bouts over the weekend. In defense of last years loss, many admitted after the event that they didn't believe it was going to be as good as it was. Doubting the number of awards, competition, organization etc. etc, many thought it best to pass on the first year of this great event. After being disappointed they did not follow through last year, many of them signed up for the tournament this year vowing they will indeed show up to "Walk the Walk!"

Last year fighters attended from 19 States (Missouri, Iowa, Nevada, California, New York, Virginia, Texas, Oklahoma, Mississippi, Indiana, Kansas, North Carolina, Illinois, Nebraska, Michigan, Georgia, Colorado, Ohio and Wisconsin) and one from Alberta, Canada. For 2008 there are fighters attending from 22 States. The top 10 states in regards to number of contenders are;
