Freedom Fight Night: POSTPONED from June 29, 2024
Despite approving our non-sanctioned event last year, the State Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses has demanded that Freedom Fight Night now be sanctioned; we are exploring restructuring options to remain non-sanctioned.

WORKING ON LEGISLATIVE CHANGE - STAY TUNED

Freedom Fight Night was established as a non-sanctioned exhibition event specifically to provide a platform for young novice fighters to experience live competitive bouts and determine their interest in pursuing fighting as a sport.

We firmly believe in the value of Freedom Fight Night as a developmental opportunity for aspiring fighters in our community. Please visiting www.FreedomFightNight.org for updates as we explore restructuring options to remain non-sanctioned.
HSB Veterans Memorial & Wall of Heroes Donations are being accepted here.
