    We have a medical station on site with medical trained personnel . Our ref is a professionally trained ref that's medically trained, and we have others on site too.

Sure, they can sign a paper that says, I'm willing to risk my life for this illegal backyard brawl. Not sure how well that's going to stand up in a court of law when some dudes signed off against that with a black sharpie pen on a highschool notepad. At least not for whoever is organizing them. Then yes, you also have medical issues. Of course, that would also be in your own hands. The organizer isn't paying for jack. Heck, doesn't like 90% of professional promoters not even offer the fighters health insurance?

      I dunno, if I was the organizer of these events, I would want to stay completely on the DL because you can't protect anything of which can occur in these fights. As a fighter of these events, you have to know, you have zero chance of winning against any potential harm you receive but I suppose that is obvious as it would be in a boxing match.

      As far as betting/******** goes, yeah I wouldn't want to be involved with that either in anyway, lol. Good luck though.

      Hard to stay on the DL with almost 2 million subscribers on YouTube. Look, anything you do, whether its riding a mechanical bull, climbing a man made Rockwall, spending the day at a trampoline park .. you are signing a waiver. You know the risk ahead of time when you sign up.
      We allow no ********, if I hear about it, the people involved are banned.

        There isn't a real ranking system, its based on your experience and number of matches you've had as far as title contention goes.

        No, you can sue for that. You show up, weigh in, get matched and fight. You're not obligated to fight anyone you dunny want to. Its like fighting in a smoker event.

        There's absolutely NO money involved. No admission fee, no paying fighters, and no betting. This keeps it legal.

        Some rules can be negotiable, such as round length.

        We don't allow illegal rules, to stay operational and to protect the fighters.

        If you intentionally took out someone's eye, itv would be treated as it would if you were fighting in a sanctioned event.

        What's a fixer?

        There is no betting allowed.

        We have people that are willing to fight anyone, they're badasses lol
        How is the fight legal? It is disorderly conduct which puts lives at risk? It is not a mutual fight ie sanctioned.

          So you're not paying the fighters? These dudes risk injury for you to get youtube subscribers?

          The whole thing sounds illegal

            Illegal because participants receive no cash?

              Mutual combat. There is no crime being committed. It's not a domestic dispute.

                  Illegal would be paying them. Also, where in the US do amateur fighters get paid? Amateur promotions don't pay fighters, but they charge admission to events. The fighters risk it just like in amateur events, the difference is that the YouTube platform offers them huge exposure.

                    We enforce rules just like in a professional atmosphere. We follow the same rules as amateur boxing/mma.

                      I am not a lawyer but believe that a fight needs to be duly licensed or authorised for it to be legal
