INDIANA AMATEUR FIGHT LEAGUE
LEGAL
This is the section where I will not pussy foot around, I will keep it real and tell it to you straight.
These events are full contact, this is not scripted or set up, when you get punched or kicked it fucking hurts, I am a fighter, there are serious risks involved in this sport, just because you are an amateur doesn't mean you are not at risk, the only thing the separates you from pro's is the money, know that this is a fight, understand the risks.
I can' tell you every possible way you can get hurt in a fight, but I can tell you that if you can handle the pain of getting punched in the face, getting kicked in the head or put in a submission and you train hard, exercise regularly stay flexible as possible you can reduce some of the risks, but you can't eliminate them. Every single time you step in the cage, expect to get injured at least a little.
Don't participate because your friends are doing it, participate because you want to, only you know your limitations!
You need heart, skill, determination, strength, flexibility, have great cardio, stamina and the will to win. This is some of what it takes to be a great fighter and a champion, the rest is made up of what you bring to the table.
We can give you all the tools to use and sharpen your skill, but the bottom line is you have to give it all, one wrong move and you can be hurt.

As a fighter, I have been hurt many of times, but at that time they didn't offer this kind of insurance or it was just to expensive. So I had to miss work or work hurt. That is your choice, but I suggest you get insurance.
