The ISKA used to say they sanctioned Strikeforce events, when in reality the State commission in the USA were the real sanctioning body behind that show.Quote:

Friend of mine who runs a decent show used iska dropped it due to lack of value. Wont name him because he told me in private but its a decent show. Not meaning to shit stir some of you saying its good just adding what ive been told.
as for rule sets I just want to see no head shots bouts disapear. Always drags cards down for me
"semi pro" seems like its used on loads of smaller shows, no idea why maybe people just think its sounds better???
Less and less are now using the "Semi Pro" rule set most are just using one Amateur rule set that is 7oz gloves head shots on the ground no elbows.Quote:

Its that simple...
I think Made 4 the Cage started this trend, at least it was the first I heard of it.

If only there was a governing body or commission....
