GYM TRAINING EVENTS
- These events will NOT ALLOW for an "Announced"
Winner or Loser.
- Since these are "Training Events" and the bouts do not
count as an actual fight, these match-ups will eliminate, for example, a bad
judges decision, or a bad referee decision that would be final decision on a
fighters record.
- These events are to help fighters gain ring experience in front of a crowd,
as if a real bout. This is the stage and the arena for those beginning fighters
who need that ever so valuable ring time.
- These events are to test and observe new officials without jeopardizing the
Livelihood or a bad decision on a fighters record.
- There are still regulatory requirements that the CSAC
insist be followed on these events. However, the costs will be far less than a
regular event.
