A fight is won by knockout, submission, doctor/referee order stop.

  • Featherweight (135-145lbs)
  • Lightweight (145-155lbs)
  • Welterweight (155-170lbs)
  • Middleweight (170-185lbs)

  • Super Hulk (over 265lbs)
  • Openweight (any)

Round length

  • Ten-minute first round
  • Ten-minute second round

Judging

  • Fights will be judged in their entirety by three judges, not on a round-by-round ten-point-must basis (more common to North American promotions).
  • A winner will always be declared, and draws are not possible.

Fouls and violations

  • Stomps and soccer kicks to the head of a grounded opponent are not allowed (unless both fighters are on the ground), but they are allowed to the rest of the body.
  • Elbows to the head are prohibited.
  • If there is a 15 kilograms (33 lb) or more weight difference between the fighters, knees to the head of a grounded opponent are not allowed.
  • A grounded opponent is defined as one in a three-point position. If a fighter has, for example, both knees and one hand on the floor facing the mat, then no kicks to the head are allowed.

Tournament substitutions

  • In case of a "No Contest" or injury, the fighter who can continue will go through to the next round, if neither fighter is able to continue the promoter will choose a fighter to go through.
