SAVE MMA in GEORGIA!!

THIS IS FOR EVERYONE, ESPECIALLY IF YOU
LIVE IN GEORGIA.


SAVE MMA IN GEORGIA!!!!

READ THIS NOW!

TODAY (Friday the 12th) the GEORGIA SENATE
may give control of MMA to the ATHLETIC
COMMISSION. SAVE your sport!! Yesterday,
Thursday, the GEORGIA HOUSE of REPS passed
House Bill 558. If the GEORGIA SENATE passes it
today we're all screwed, just like Florida was
screwed by their law.

THEY WANT MONEY FROM EVERYONE!!

The Athletic Commission - headed by greedy Tom
Mishou - is planning to charge $1000.00 per year
to promotions, plus $250.00 PER BOUT, plus
$3.00 PER TICKET!! This is outrageous.

Let's keep this straight to the point. The same
forces who tried to screw up MMA sanctioning in
Georgia last year are at it again, ONLY THIS TIME
IT"S FAR WORSE!!!!

Last year, along with the ISKA, they tried to mess
things up with legislation that would have brought
criminal elements into MMA and left the door open
for unwanted scrutiny.

In the meantime MMA HAS BECOME MORE
POPULAR THAN BOXING in Georgia. Now the
absolute worst has happened. The ATHLETIC
COMMISSION is trying to take over MMA in their
own name - not the ISKA's name. However, this is
the same group of people who backed the ISKA
power grab last year!

Oh BTW, there is also a little note which allows
specifically for CONVICTED FELONS to be able to
promote fights. Who does that sound like?? I'll give
you three guesses and the first two don't count:
Lane Collyer.


What should you do? Contact your Georgia
Senator TODAY! THIS MORNING!

Hey, it's ODog with 19 posts! Hey O'Dog ol buddy
ol pal.

Anonymous Cunt.

Say it to my face and I'll knock the yeast infection
out of you.

My business affairs are in order, and you are either
ignorant or have an axe to grind with me. . Probably
both.

and now, . . . hopefully, back to the topicat hand.

What's worse is that under this legislation, the boxing commissioner can exempt certain parties from the letter of this legislation: Read between those lines.

You can bet that those parties/organizations that have stood for the best interests of the people of Georgia will NOT be exempted.

What's more, there is no criteria given for this exemption. I guess the commissioner can exempt who he want$ with no checks or balances.

Employees of Georgia's Boxing Commission recently LIED to my house representative that I and my friends were in support of this legislation.

NO SERGE!!!!!!

The vote in the Georgia Senate is TODAY! TODAY!

They sneaked the first vote through the Georgia House
YESTERDAY!!

Call your Senator N. . . O . . .W . . .
