April 27, 2015 at 12:33 pmThis was a Horrible Venue for the type of Event King of the Cage puts on. Back parking lot area for this Event is nothing but Tacky and disrespectful to the fighters and those who drive many miles to support them and King of theCage. NO PARKING!!! And having fighters run out on the pavement, knowing they don't wear shoes into the ring is also dangerous and not sanitary. Seating was horrible, dirty and The main job of the REF is to insure the safety of the fighters. This Ref looked fresh off the street, staying clear from fighters, unable to stop fights in a timely manner, and or even see if the fighter would be tapping out. One fighter was sent to the Hospital from injuries sustained because the REF DID NOT pull fighter off, or get in between. Fighters are in fight mode its their job to stop the fight to save fighter from major injuries. For as much money as Fans pay, King of the Cage should be putting on a better production, and give the respect due to the fighters and fans who make this come together in the end. Myself and others who went in support of another fighter will not return to this Venue to see another fight. We all love the fights and continue to support our fighters and all the hard work they put in to their fights, it should be reciprocated to them by putting on a FIRST CLASS EVENT!
