START COUNTING…
First Deadline June 20
ENGLAND LEADS THE WAY…
In The Quest for The Gold at The
2008
IKF World Classic Amateur Kickboxing Championships!
In 2006, 2 weeks before the First Deadline we had around 20 fighters registered for the IKF World Classic. Last year before the first deadline of July 13th, we had 36 fighters. Today we are well over a month from the First Deadline for 2008 of June 20th and we already have 16 Registered Fighters.
That may not seem like a lot now but if the growth numbers continue as in past years, this could be the Largest turnout yet in the 9 year history of the IKF Championship Tournaments.
Already two camps in Florida are making
bold statements that they will each have over 20 fighters. Last year the entire state of Florida registered 25 fighters and finished second to the State with the most registered fighters, Georgia with 31, up from 19 the year before in Iowa.
Although Kickboxing has been extremely quiet in the Peach State of Georgia, word has it that there are plenty of hungry kickboxers there who are ready to make the trip to Orlando and re-claim their title for Most Registered Fighters yet again.
It will be a mystery to see what California brings to “The Show” this year. Last year the Golden State finished a close third to Georgia and Florida with 24 registered fighters. With sincere regret, Dennis Guila of Antioch California will not be able to attend this year. Guila and his school will be at their Martial arts tournament they do every year and this year it just so happened to fall on the very same weekend. We will surly miss them this year with all the top talent they brought last year. Last year Team Guila brought 6 fighters and walked away with 4 World Classic Titles! The only ones who will not miss Team Guila this year will be those in the divisions they would have been in.
