Am I guaranteed a fight?
No, unfortunately not. Signing up gets you into the training program but it takes more than just signing up to get you into the ring. Final selections will be made about 4-5 weeks out when everyone has had the chance to learn to box and get to a suitable level of fitness. Several factors influence you getting a fight such as your level of fitness and being able to match you with a suitable opponent.
-
What happens if I don't get selected for a fight?
We encourage fighters to keep training as the likelihood is that we will need some substitute fighters due to withdrawals or injury.
