The seventh annual “Operation Knockout,” held this past Nov. 19טה אין די ונטערשטאָט לאַס וועגאַס עווענץ צענטער, was created to help Randy Couture’s G.I. Foundation raise funds and awareness for wounded soldiers and their families.
דאס יקסייטינג, unique charity event featured a night of amazing fights and a fabulous silent auction that featured gloves signed by ראַנדי קאָוטורע, Luke Rockhold, מיעשאַ טאַטע און Gray Maynard, tickets to Criss Angel, Rock of Ages און Legends in Concert, and many more items. There was something for everyone with nine amateur MMA fights, four of which were for title belts, and six super-fight grappling bouts featuring Bellator’s ריאַן קאָוטורע, ex-UFC fighter Ulysses Gomez and current UFC fighter Anthony Birchak, former Bellator fighter and active military, Michael Parker, former Lion Fight fighter Fanny Tommasino, and current Combate Americas fighter and former Tuff-N-Uff fighter, קיראַ באַטאַראַ.
Veteran MMA announcers שאָן כווילאַק, Joey Varner and living legend Couture called all the action live from ringside.
“Tuff-N-Uff is honored to have a hand in helping to raise funds for and bring awareness to our brave service members who have sacrificed so much for our great country,” Tuff-N-Uff CEO דזשעף מאיר האט. “Any little bit helps and the least we could do was put together a fight card with the Future Stars of MMA, as well as some big names in MMA who participated. We can’t thank everyone enough for helping put this amazing event together for a good cause.”
קסטרעמע קאָוטורע ג.י. וויקיפּעדיע גיט נייטיק שטיצן און באַדינונגען פֿאַר ווונדאַד זעלנער און זייערע משפּחות, פילע פון וועמען צוריקקומען מיט טראַוומאַטיש אַמפּוטאַטיאָנס, גאַנשאַט ווונדז, ברענט און בלאַסט ינדזשעריז. One-hundred percent of the proceeds are given as Operation Knockout continues to build on its efforts to raise more money and help more wounded soldiers and their families. With help of its generous sponsors and donations, “Operation Knock” had raised more than $170,000 going into this year’s event.
“ I can’t tell you how thankful I am for the support from Tuff-N-Uf, Downtown Las Vegas Events Center and the D Las Vegas of ‘Round 7, Operation Knockout’ and wounded veterans through xcgif.org,” Couture commented. “ We at XCGIF appreciate your help and support of this cause.
“We train our warriors to suppress strong emotional reactions in the face of adversity, to tolerate physical and emotional pain, and overcome the fear of injury and death. The military can’t decrease the intensity of that conditioning without negatively affecting the fighting capability of our military. It is a Catch-22. A chilling truth is service members are, simply put, more capable of killing themselves by sheer consequence of their professional training and we are losing 22 a day. This must change. We need to retrain our warriors on what defines success for them.”
“It’s going to be a great night of fighting and grappling. Thank you all for your contributions.”
