Team Cabrera wishes the World best Greetings
Holiday
Greetings from USMTA... CHAMPIONSHIP KICKBOXING MATCH TO OPEN NEW MILLENNIUM On January 15, 2000, a kickboxing match two years in the making will finally happen. Negotiations began two years ago with kickboxing veteran and champion Henry "The Hitman" Nieves (32-6-2 / 17 KO) and another kickboxing champion Luis "Bad Boy" Ruiz (16-4-0 / 12 KO) to fight for the vacant USKBA Super Light Heavyweight World Championship Title. In the interim, the opportunity arose to have Ruiz and John "The Stallion" Evans fight for the title. Ruiz won the title by a close decision. Nieves wants the title. On January 15, 2000, Nieves will get his shot when Ruiz defends his USKBA World Title on THE BATTLE IN THE BRONX at New York's Premier Restaurant and Sports Club...Jimmy's Bronx Cafe. The fight card will also feature pro kickboxers "Diesel" Dave Buglione, Peter Kaljevic, Tommy "The Warrior" Rodriguez and Tim Lane. In addition, an action packed amateur undercard will complete the show. This Millennium Kickboxing Event is being arranged by Michelle Conhaim and her Winning Image Productions promotion company and is sanctioned by the USKBA (United States Kickboxing Association). The event is scheduled to be broadcast by Bronxnet Cable TV and is sponsored and supported by Everlast and Cablevision. For additional information, go to the USKBA website at www.uskba.com, or e-mail the USKBA at info@uskba.com. Phone calls are being handled at 908-558-0400.

Just a little holiday cheer from us to you. The picture is of the Fairtex pros at our gym in San Francisco. www.fairtex.com Muaythai Kickboxing - The Rave - Milwaukee Saturday, December 18, 1999 KOSTUCK EXPLODES WITH 0:15 KO WIN OVER ARNALL; UNDERCARD ACTION-PACKED As reported by George Buse Milwaukee, WI, USA Milwaukee Phetnoi Gym's Richard Kostuck (IKF Intercontinental Jr. Welterweight Champion) is a school teacher by trade, and tonight he gave Springfield, Missouri's Alex Arnall (IKF #5 Contender) a serious lesson in Muaythai. Kostuck put the "K" in KO as he followed a beautiful high kick with a blazing punch to Arnall's head. Arnall crumbled to the canvas just five seconds into the first round. Motionless on the canvas, Arnall was counted out by Referee Al Wichgers at the 0:15 mark. Fortunately, Arnall received prompt medical attention and, after sufficiently passing a neurological exam, was able to walk under his own volition. Although the Kostuck-Arnall main event was the shortest pro fight of the year, the nine bout undercard was abundant with in-your-face amateur action. The next Milwaukee event will be held at the spacious, uptown Milwaukee County Sports Complex on February 26, 2000. Stay tuned for more details on this and other fight cards in 2000. Happy New Year and thank you for your support--the new millenium will thrive with Milwaukee forging its way into the international Muaythai spotlight! Click for full report and results Second
German Shidokan Open THE 1999 BATTLE INTERNATIONAL MUAY THAI & KICKBOXING EVENT (Calgary) NOVEMBER 20TH, 1999 The 1999 Battle was sold out (1300 people) and even though there appeared to be several empty seats in the back of the venue, over 200 people were in standing room only around the ring witnessing the action. As usual, Calgary's audience is very fight intelligent and they were entertained by several full Muay Thai rules bouts. These two bouts were close to being the 'Bouts of the Year' for 1999. The skills demonstrated were very good and of a very high standard. Read the full report and results. Intercontinental
