SPECIAL TO IKF: In approximately one month from now, Sacramento and area fight fans will get yet another chance to see a great show of Kickboxing. The Sacramento area has been fortunate to have put on some pretty nice shows in the past few months like the well attended show of Former Mixed Martial Arts Champion Uriajh Faber of Sacramento, CA. It was clear by the energy in the fight arena at the Radisson Hotel that this area is ready and has much love for the ultimate striking sport- Kickboxing! Kickboxing has been dangling on the lower skirt tail of contact sports for the past few years and had to take a back seat to such hybrids sports as MMA. However, this great sport is on the comeback thanks to promoters in the Bay Area like former World Champ Brian Schwartz of Redwood City and Tim Stell of Fairfield, CA...to name a few. All of these promoters have continued to endorse their passion for the sport resulting in keeping it alive in challenging times. AK Promotions - www.akpromotions.org based out of Rocklin, CA is now ready to join back in the action promoting their first show in about three years... Sunday, September 6th ...Labor Day weekend in Rancho Cordova, CA. The event will take place at the popular Tommy T's Comedy Club and Dinner Theatre located at 12401 Folsom, Blvd. in Rancho Cordova, CA. (916) 357-5233 The excitement is starting to build for these electrifying fights between men and women! Muay Thai, Hi and Low Kick bouts will make this show one not to miss! The action will be hot and heavy as feet and fists of fury will fly with knockout action! Lightweights to Super Heavyweight bouts are currently scheduled to do battle! The ambiance of the club complete with spot lights, bar, excellent food, great music coupled with a ring at center stage, will give a Las Vegas feel to what will be a great night out for those looking for some thrilling sports entertainment! Doors will open around 4:30 PM and an Silent Auction will kickoff around 5:15. You can get there early and start the celebration for the excellent event you will witness that evening. Autographed Memorabilia from all-time greats will be on display and most of the money raised will go to support local charities. So, we encourage your participation. At 6:PM the event will start with the National Anthem and shortly after, the first bout of the night will begin. Right after the fights, there will be a standup comedian who will use the ring as his stage for the evening , so you may want to make plans to hang around and enjoy and night of comedy! ( may be an additional cost) Fighters from Northern and Southern CA will be competing in this event. But to top off the night, we will have a main event which will certainly have everyone talking...IKF Champion Caley Scott (Right) of Concord, CA who trains with multiple World Champion Mr. George Tsutsui will be defending his Amateur Muay Thai Kickboxing West Coast Middleweight Title against the tough Robert Cornejo of Milpitas, CA who trains with former champ Mr. Rudi Ott. This is a rematch where only a few months back, Scott defeated Cornejo by a close decision and you can believe that Cornejo won't take a second shot at this title lightly! Scott will need to bring his A- Game and not take Cornejo for granted as the smallest error on this evening could mean a new champion! This will be a great night to remember for fight fans but here is a serious warning...DON'T WAIT TO GET YOUR TICKETS...this is not an extremely large venue and based on the hype that's already starting and with popular local fighters like Daniel Hodges (left) and Female fighter- Nadya Lynn Lorenz of Rocklin, we are in for a great night of action!. Plus, local Muay Thai fighters- Branden Mackie, Clifford Smith and Alvaro Cabrera of Muay Thai Lau of Sacramento and a hint of even more talent like top IKF Point Kickboxing star Jesse Agricula ( Right) of Sonoma, CA on board, tickets will sell fast! (complete fight list coming soon) Get your tickets now at www.tommyts.com or by calling (916) 357-5233.

Mortgage Broker Becomes
Kickboxing Champion?
At this years 2009 IKF World Classic, some of the greatest fighters from all over the world fought for the right to be named "IKF World Classic Champion!" The event took place at the Marriott Hotel in Orlando, Florida, with nearly 300 fighters registered to compete in all weight divisions and three different rules categories. Who would have thought a mild-mannered, 37 year old mortgage broker from Tampa, Florida, would be one of the new "IKF World Classic Champions!" Eric Parker, from Tampa, Florida, became just that.
That's right folks, this past July, Tampa Mortgage Broker Eric Parker (Right) became a 2009 IKF World Classic Kickboxing Champion (Lightweight 130.1 lbs. - 140 lbs. MUAY THAI RULE DIVISION ) when he won his final Championship bout at 48 seconds of round 1 with a crowd pleasing Spinning Hook Kick. The win came after Parker had defeated all 3 of his previous opponents by TKO, as he worked his way through the largest fighter bracket of the tournament. To see it on You Tube click HERE!
Not only did he win each of his 4 bouts by KO or TKO, he ended them ALL before the second round!
For Eric Parker, it was the opportunity of a lifetime when he entered the Muay Thai Rules Men's Lightweight Division, a full-contact rules division that permits punches and kicks to the head, body and legs, as well as knee and elbow strikes to the body. This was the 11 year of the annual international event. The IKF World Classic is a single-elimination tournament, meaning that if fighter loses once, he is out of the competition.
Parker weighed-in at 139 pounds on Friday afternoon and entered the ring on Saturday morning for his first of four potential fights in a division consisting of thirteen fighters. According to the IKF, Parker was the first fighter in the history of the annual world championship tournament to go 4-0 through the brackets of fighters, with four first round knockouts to win the belt. In a ringside interview, Mr. Parker was asked what made the difference between losing and being crowned the new IKF World Classic Tournament Champion. He summed it all up by saying, "Three things. One; the will to win. Two; support from family and friends, especially my wife, Amber, and daughter, Lauren. And three, my Team. I want to thank Cornerman Travis Hadwin, who took care of me and helped prepare me for these fights. And particularly, I thank my instructor, Shihan Gary Hellman, of Tiger Schulmann's Mixed Martial Arts in Clearwater, Florida - where I train - for his coaching and instruction in helping improve me as a fighter."
Asked after the interview if he used any special training in preparing to fight against fighters nearly half his age, Parker replied, "Believe it or not, at Tiger Schulmann's Mixed Martial Arts, my training regimen is no different than any other student at my school." His record now is 9-0, with 6 knockouts. Eric can be reached for comments or questions by phone at (317) -289-3380 or at eparker@america-one-finance.com or at Clearwater@tsk.com
