My brother fought at HFC on April 30th, 2016 in Hammond, Indiana. He was winning his fight up 2 rounds and then his opponent hit him with illegal elbows, knocking him out. The poor reffing allowed this fight to be declared a win on Jordan Mitchell's record even though they were illegal blows. This ref clearly didn't know what he's doing yet continues to work for the very corrupt IGC. As his manager we contested this and campaigned for it to be overturned to a majority decision and to give Angel the win. Instead, the commission ruled it a No Contest (NC) letting his opponent get away with his illegal actions. This shows how incompitent they are over at the IGC, especially the commissioner herself.
My brother trained hard at Jackson MMA in New Mexico for this fight and it wasn't cheap on his end. The promotion HFC didn't even give him the win bonus that he deserved.
Instead it went to his opponent for cheating. I still want justice and I want the commissioner fired. I will have my brother fight in Michigan and Illinois, but not in Indiana until she is gone from there. If you are a fighter yourself, do not support her. What she and her staff did was wrong and they are just trying to play favorites with Indiana fighters. They are a joke and so is HFC for washing their hands with this.
