If you’ve followed Mid-Atlantic MMA since last year (and God bless you, if you have), you may have noticed that events come in waves. Part of the “How to Not Lose Your Ass as a Promoter” eBook involves booking your shows about every 8 to 10 weeks. Any closer together and your don’t give yourself enough time to build the event. Any farther apart and you lose your fanbase’s extremely short attention span. And for some reason, promoters all want to book shows in the same month, so we’ll get very active months with every organization running a show, and then we’ll get months like July, where it seems like nobody wants to run a show.

That is with two distinct exceptions. We’ll start about two weeks from now up in North Jersey, which has suddenly become a hot spot for shows, with organizations like UCC, KAP and the entry-level amateur show, Evolution AMMA. To take another page out of the “How to Not Lose Your Ass” hand guide, I want to point out that MMA.tv has the event, with bout sheet listed, while Evolution’s own website has no mention of any event after the March date. So its very possible that this event won’t happen. Lesson to promoters: Make sure you maintain an accurate and up to date web presence, this includes your website, your event schedule on the site, and your Facebook and Twitter accounts.

Scott Morgan from New Breed Fighters kept himself pretty busy on Saturday. Here’s a page out of our buddy’s journal.
Saturday May 30th I woke up with the anticipation of the kind of day that many an American parent can relate to.

It was the second day of a three day soccer tournament in support of our 10 year old and we were hoping to get through it before the impending inclement weather arrived.

The tournament would consume much of the day and with a crack of dawn start the following morning, the outlook for the evening was limited.

As a lover of sports I resigned to spend the evening in my favorite chair in front of my favorite T.V. After all, I could start my evening with a baseball game, traverse to the Stanley Cup Finals ( GO FLYERS ), dribble over to an elimination game in the NBA Playoffs and end my night with mma action from the UFC.
