AMATEUR SANCTIONING BODIES
Amateur Sanctioning Bodies DO NOT need to be NON PROFIT Companies to Sanction MMA or Kickboxing in the State of Louisiana.
However, one can apply to be an accepted Amateur Sanctioning body that could act independently from the rules above
as does USA Boxing.
This below explains these details
HOW TO QUALIFY AS AN ACCEPTED 'AMATEUR' ORGANIZATION IN LOUISIANA

The Louisiana State Boxing and Wrestling Commission does hereby exercise the emergency provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act, R.S. 49:953(b) and 49:967(D), and adopts the following Rules. The Louisiana State Boxing and Wrestling Commission, by this Emergency Rule, will adopt the rules of the United States Amateur Boxing, Inc., and/or the Golden Gloves of America pursuant to amateur boxing contestants and events; to clarify the definitions of "amateur" and "professional" and the corresponding rules thereto in order to ensure that a proper forum for amateur fighters is encouraged; that amateur shows are properly advertised as such and that amateur contestants are equally matched.

This Emergency Rule will also introduce a new chapter, Chapter 7. Mixed Technique Events, which is necessary to promote the safety of mixed technique contestants, other participants and spectators in that it will require participants in all mixed technique events to be under the jurisdiction of The Louisiana State Boxing and Wrestling Commission. This new chapter will introduce rules specific to Amateur Mixed Technique Events and Professional Mixed Technique Events and outlines the commission's demands pertaining to contestants, amateur or professional; rules citing the responsibility of promoters of amateur shows, in particular, and professional mixed technique events; bout durations; judges and referees; and the safety and ring requirements of both.

This Emergency Rule is effective upon signature and will remain in effect for a period of 120 days, unless renewed by the Commissioner or until adoption of the final Rule, whichever occurs first.
