On Any Given Sunday
The saying in football is that on any given Sunday any
team can win. The champions of our sport will have no easy time at the IKF
Nationals as the best of the best come to meet the challenge. Fighters rise to
the task when faced with great talent and our returning champions surely provide
that. Don't hand out the belts quite yet as new talent will certainly emerge and
increase the field of fighters to watch. As Jesse Finney puts it "Stay
positive". I am positive there will be great fights for all the belts and
we will enjoy the best tournament in America. Looking forward to seeing all of
you. Uncle

They... ROCKED US! They
Started the Event With The Song "We Will Rock
You!" And They DID!
On Saturday morning, the IKF/TKO
USA National Amateur Championship Tournament opened with the lights down low and
10 seconds of silence for the recent loss of MuayThai star Alex Gong.
From the darkness, the lights focused on the American Flag as Mary Lee
Malmberg (Director of Sports Tourism) of the Cedar Rapids CVB broke
the silence with the National Anthem. The moment she was done, the sound system
in the massive U.
S. Cellular Center blasted out the song "We Will Rock
YOU!" setting the stage for the greatest Amateur Kickboxers in America
to do just that, ROCK US! And they DID!
As the music played, each fighter took their last breath of air
as a spectator and all became champions who all met on this weekend to "Walk
The Walk" in the U. S. Cellular Center in
Cedar
Rapids Iowa at the Greatest IKF Amateur Tournament
to date and very possibly, the Greatest Amateur Kickboxing Tournament EVER!
This was REAL Championship Kickboxing! This was an
Outstanding EVENT that will forever set the stage for any promotion of this type
to come! This was a great event not because of the effort of one promoter. Not
because of the talents of one fighter. This was great because of the efforts of
"EVERYONE" associated with the IKF
on this given weekend who put in time to make it all possible. From those who
ran gloves or cleaned floors to the stars of the show, the Champions, everyone
represented a chain that held us strong throughout the entire 63 hours of the
event (12 noon Friday to 5 PM Sunday). Doing their jobs, each proved in
their own way to be the Team's strongest link and through the efforts of the
many we all shinned in the success of it.
With the lights of the massive
U. S.
Cellular Center turned down, only two squares were visible to
those in attendance. The two squares under the ring lights in the middle of the
arena where the best amateur kickboxers in America would take the stage to "Walk
The Walk!"
Over the next two days, inside these squares, champions were
made and legends were born. There were new Champions crowned while some past
ones upset by those being just a little better on this given Sunday...
All who entered the ring this weekend will forever be known,
as those who in the past,
as the "Best Amateur Kickboxers In America!" In attendance
were past multiple time Champions such as Stephen Thompson of
Simpsonville, South Carolina and Peyton Russell of Minneapolis,
Minnesota who have "Walked the Walk" before but this year,
came to put in time as part of the event staff to help others take center stage
under the lights. They were just two of an event staff that worked around 150
bouts in two days and turned in a performance by event officials that was simply
SUPREME!
There are so many stories to be told as always and some we
noticed have been told on the
IKF Message Board
with more to follow. The news page will be quiet for a week
though since the IKF Staff will be taking
a much needed week off now to get recharged for more IKF
Action. Some of that action will include the IKF North American
Championship Tournaments and other great
upcoming IKF Events. Not to mention the work with
our IKF
TV Show that will start on September 5th. So for now, we know you all
want to know who was crowned the 2003 IKF/TKO
USA National Amateur Champions... So lets "Bring It On"
and share with you how each and every fighter this weekend,
ROCKED US ALL!
