First and foremost– I would like the MMA community to keep a young fighter, Isaiah Abels, and his family in our thoughts and prayers. He’s a warrior who needs all the help and positive energy he can get in the fight he is in right now. Please view and share his GoFundMe at the end of the article if you wish to help him and his family during this troubling time.

On a positive note, we are back ladies and gentlemen with local MMA in your beautiful Tri-State Area! SICP returns home again with a bang for its 3rd event on August 5th at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum in downtown Evansville, Indiana.

We have a stacked 17-card event! The doors for the venue will open at 5 pm CDT, with the first fight beginning at 7 PM CDT. If you can’t attend in person but still want to watch then you’re in luck!
