I think they might give you 2lbs at most not sure about four, but who knows because I heard some people come overweight sometimes and they don't really say much.

If you haven't done your first IKF-PKB yet I can shed some light(Helped with 2 events so far in the midwest). So the 2 biggest things they match you with is people who are 1.) have the same experience and 2.) weight, Now this is a PKB so it's all about points and not power, so weight can be a little forgiving you can be match with someone 0lbs-10lbs heavier or smaller majority of the time. But they will address the weight difference with both fighters to make sure they'll allow it. This is because this isn't a "Fight" but a sparring match, now depending on how experienced you are can also be a factor with how you get matched lets say you're 2 years deep into training and already have 3 "Fights" and weight in at 145lbs, and theirs no one in that weight range that fits that mark of experience they'll most likely pair you with someone a bit heavier (10+ lbs) with maybe the same training time no fights, or half the experience but with fights (theirs a difference) But turnouts are usually pretty high. Last two which I helped with had a little over 80 fighters show up, some fighting more than once if they want to switch their fighting rules from muay thai, kickboxing, boxing etc Extreme case of matching I've seen was a guy around 5'10 weighing around 330+ lbs paired with a experienced fighter who looked around 5'11 and maybe in the 185-195 lb range but the big guy had some heart even tho his conditioning was not their, so don't be too worried about matching, but do it for yourself to show all the blood and sweat you put in so far and to show the ones you call friends and family and give it your all! But remember to leave ego at the door!

Is there multiple fights or just one? I have my first one coming up in about 2 weeks

@@tylermitchell8425 Really depends on numbers, and also which fighting disciplines you participate in, most often its 2, we usually group 4 together that have about the same qualities and fighting discipline , and a bracket system gets made winners going against each other. So you could be knocked out of the bracket on your first match or you could go on to fight the other winner. At the IKF's I've helped host we allowed boxing, kickboxing, international kickboxing and modified muay thai, we look to all fighters being able to fight into their main discipline, but you can be pulled into another if you are a good fit for another fighter needing a match up. Giving you more chances to fight, but we try to make sure everyone gets a fight first before others get issued another. You can also refuse to fight in another discipline, since some IKF's can affect which fight class's you get placed in if you ever take future tournaments. But good luck to you brother, train hard, work on cardio the most I would say, often time I see is that people lose to getting gassed out by the second or potential third round

appreciate the feedback, will keep it in mind🤘🏽

its a smoke so some smokers even allow 8 count

Thank you bro, but that's how the game goes you know. We win some , we lose some. I should have checked those leg kicks, I realized right after the fight it was because of my stance. Since then I have made many adjustments to my stance and movement.

appreciate the praise, i’ll continue to work hard either way.
