Exciting Kickboxing Show Set for Rocklin, CA
Coach's Sport Bar!

Friday, March 11th, 5681 Lonetree Blvd. Rocklin

Doors/Bar Open At 5:30 PM & The Fights Begin At 7:PM

As Kickboxing continues to rise in popularity, AK Promotions based out of Rocklin continues to give opportunity to fighters to show their skills in front of packed houses of screaming fans. Johnny Davis, President AK Promotions just completed a sellout show in Sacramento at the Doubletree Hotel in January and is pleased with the progression over of the sport over the past few years. Next month, March 11th, 2011 the winds will blow in yet another opportunity for fight fans to witness the fury of when feet and fists are the weapons of choice.

Coach's Sports Bar is nestled on the outskirts of Rocklin, California located at 5681 Lonetree Blvd. In a relatively young community filled with soccer, baseball and football as primary sports. However, when IKF Kickboxing hits town, one bets the club will sell out fast as the town is also a big fan of contact sports.

Approximately 15 fights are currently being match for the card. One fighter from Rocklin is also scheduled to fight as well as The Inferno Dancers of Sacramento will perform on the show. Sean Cronin (R) who trains at the Rocklin Kickboxing and Boxing Club and fights at the 159lbs weight limit, will be fighting his third fight. Cronin who has very strong kicks and punches is hoping for a big win in front of his home town crowd.

IKF West Coast Champion and Rocklin resident Daniel "Hitman" Hodges will not be on the card as he is preparing for a bigger show set for Thunder Valley Casino in Lincoln, California on April 30th, 2011.

The March 11th Main Event will be an exciting rematch between current IKF Champ Roberto Morales of Sacramento against tough Anthony Acosta of San Leandro, CA. In their first bout, Acosta felt he came out a little short with the judges and actually won but this time around he plans to turn the tides and make a win decisive! We are sure that Morales and his flamboyant fighting style will be giving his all to walk away again with the 'W'!

Don't Miss This Great Event as it will sellout fast! Do not wait to get your tickets as this is a much smaller venue than previous AK Promotions events! Regardless of your form of martial arts or just a sports fan, you will not want to miss this BIG night of Las Vegas Style Fighting in Rocklin!

Josh San Diego of Milpitas, CA
Wins IKF California Title!


Johnny Davis's AK Promotions, fresh off a successful show in Sacramento in January, brought Muay Thai action to Coach's Sports Bar in Rocklin Friday night. The smaller venue was filled with racous fans as a host of fighters sought to prove their mastery of the art of the eight limbs. Three two minute rounds with headgear for most fights, with five rounds and no such protection in the championship match. Ring card duties and halftime dance routine ably handled by the Sacramento Heatwave dancers.


  1. AMATEUR MUAY THAI: 137.1-142
    Brian Delapena, San Francisco, 2-1/0, 138.4, 5'6", Kru Sam defeated Marquise Ross, Fresno, 0-1/0, 140.6, 5'9", James Contreas by unanimous decision, 29-28 on all 3 judges cards.
    Referee: Ray Balewicz

  2. AMATEUR MUAY THAI: 117.1-122
    Cathering (Cat) Feely, San Francisco, 1-0, 121.6, 5'7", Jongsanan defeated Michelle Cabatuando, Sacramento, 0-1, 121.8, 5'3", MT Lao by TKO at 1:40 of round 2.
    Referee: Dan Stell
  3. AMATEUR MUAY THAI: 132.1-137
    Phil Devera, San Jose, 3-4, 136, 5'7", Derek Yuen defeated Alec Gonzales, Vallejo, 1-1, 136.6, 5'7", T. Howard, by TKO at 33 seconds of round 2.
    Referee: Ray Balewicz

    John Cabrido, Milpitas, 1-0, 146, 5'8", Rudi Ott defeated Joel Douglas, Chico, 0-1, 146, 5'8", B. Clements, by TKO at 1:49 of round 1.
    QS Report: John Cabrido got the better of Joel Douglas with hard punches, forcing a TKO stoppage in the first round.
    Referee: Dan Stell
  5. AMATEUR MUAY THAI: 153.1-159
    Sean Cronin, Rocklin, 2-1, 157.4, 5'11", R. Davis, defeated Robert Alvarado, Patterson, 0-2, 157.4, 6'2", M. Hermia, by unanimous decision, 29-28 on all 3 judges cards.
    QS Report: Rocklin's own Sean Cronin battled Robert Alvarado at the 159 pound limit. Powered by the friendly crowd, Cronin clearly dominated the first round. Cronin seemed to tire in the second round, but still pressed the action. Alvarado came on strong in the third round, but couldn't make up the deficit from the first two rounds. Cronin came out on top, 29-28 on all three judge's scorecards, and improved his record to 2-1.
    Referee: Ray Balewicz

  6. AMATEUR MUAY THAI: 195.1-215
    Anthony Hernandez, Woodland, 0-0-1, 210, 6', D.Morrissey, and Frank Tapia, Fresno, 0-1-1, 215, J. Contre, fought to a split decision draw. (IKF Awaiting scores from Source)
    QS Report: Anthony Hernandez met Frank Tapia in a battle of the heavyweights in a classic brawl. Big sloppy punches and kicks from both men. Lots of power and not much grace. The fight ended up a majority draw, so nobody went away happy.
    Referee: Dan Stell

  7. AMATEUR MUAY THAI: 132.1-137
    Powell Knogkham, Sacramento, 1-0, 134.4, 5'8", MT Lao VS Nemo Vier, Fairfield, 0-1, 133.2, 5'6", BBDC, by "Majority" decision, 27-26, 28-26, 27-27.
    QS Report: Nice contrast of styles between Powell Knogkham and Nemo Vier. Vier pressed the action, while Knogkham hung back and counter-struck. The difference was Knogkham's well-timed leg kicks, which repeatedly caught Vier moving forward and unbalanced Vier and even knocked him down. Knogkham wins in a split decision.
    Referee: Ray Balewicz

  8. AMATEUR MUAY THAI: 153.1-159
    Bear Baily, Sacramento, 1-0, 158, 5'11", C. Robinson, defeated Tai Ly, San Francisco, 0-1, 158, 5'9", Kru Sam, by split decision, 29-28, 29-28 & 28-29.
    QS Report: Both fighters were very game and aggressive in the match between Tai Ly and Bear Baily, with the difference coming from Baily's crisp, technically superior striking. Bear wins it all three judges cards.
    Referee: Dan Stell

  9. AMATEUR MUAY THAI: 147.1-153
    Jeremy Jacildo, Vallejo, 1-0, 152.4, 5'8", T. Howard, VS Izzy Morales, Ceres, 1-1, 152.4, 5'10", Mike Duran, by split decision, 29-28, 29-28 & 27-30.
    QS Report: The best action of the night was found in the scrap at the 153 pound limit between Jeremy Jacildo and Izzy Morales. Both fights were relentless in pressing the action. Jacildo came out ahead with judges and a unanimous decision.
    Referee: Ray Balewicz

  10. VACANT IKF AMATEUR MODIFIED MUAY THAI RULES
    CALIFORNIA WELTERWEIGHT TITLE

    Josh San Diego, Milpitas, California, USA, 3-0, Rudi/Unlimited, defeated Anthony Acosta, San. Leandro, 5-2, 5'10", Ramos, by unanimous decision, 50-45, 50-45 & 49-46.
    QS Report: In the main event of the night 5-2 Anthoy Acosta of San Leandro took on 3-0 Josh San Diego of Milpitas, for the vacant IKF California Welterweight title. San Diego, who took this fight as a late replacement, looked very poised in the first three rounds, scoring with his left hand and 1-2 combos. The fight was close, but San Diego was clearly landing more clean shots and by the time the fight reached the championship 4th and 5th rounds, Acosta was showing damage, including welts on his face. In the latter rounds Acosta, sensing that he was behind on the scorecard, began looking for the high head kick in an effort to win the match in one strike. But San Diego kept his guard up and stayed elusive, and Acosta couldn't find the home run shot he was looking for. After five rounds, Josh San Diego is your new champion.
    Referee: Dan Stell
