MMA SANCTIONING
Some State Athletic Commissions listed the IKF as an Approved Sanctioning Body for their States for both Kickboxing & MMA. However, these Commissions "Thought" the IKF operated as does other Kickboxing Sanctioning bodies such as the ISKA and WKA, where they sanction MMA all under their Kickboxing Sanctioning Bodies.

Since MMA is not Kickboxing, the IKF does not sanction MMA. The IKF Sanctions KICKBOXING & MUAY THAI.

HOWEVER, the IKF's Sister Organization, the ISCF, International Sport Combat Federation DOES sanction MMA. In fact, the ISCF was the first ever MMA Sanctioning Body in the world and is the Largest MMA Sanctioning Body in the World today.
