Tickets on Sale Now For "The Future Stars of MMA" This Friday at the Orleans Hotel & Casino
"The next event will showcase some of the best male and female amateur talent looking to become the future stars of MMA," said Barry Meyer, president of TUFF-N-UFF.
TUFF-N-UFF success is based on the fact that it spearheaded the credibility of the amateur MMA scene by being the first promoter to receive sanctioning from the Nevada Athletic Commission.
"We did the ground work making several presentations to the Nevada State Athletic Commission and receive the official amateur approval," Meyer said. "It was tough, but it was worth all of the hard work to provide a place for the future stars of MMA to shine."
TUFF-N-UFF events are widely recognized as the opportunity for amateur MMA fighters to make the move to the professional level. By providing them an outlet to perform in a safe environment before becoming professionals, many of the future stars of MMA started their careers on a TUFF-N-UFF card.
"After all, our first MMA event in 2003 saw several fighters move on to the hit reality show TUF, including Sam Morgan, Rob Emerson, and Shonie Carter," Meyer added. "Jon Fitch also competed that night, and he now ties the record for the most consecutive wins in the UFC and will be fighting for the title in Minnesota the day after our event."
