In an area that appeared to be starving for competition of this nature, 2 X World Champion, Johnny Davis and the folks at AK Promotions took a big step by re-introducing Full Contact Muay Thai and Kickboxing in the form of a regional tournament. In Open and Novice Divisions to accommodate different skill levels and sanctioned by the International Kickboxing Federation (IKF), fighters from South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Louisiana, Florida, Costa Rica and The Bahamas converged on the "South of the Border Convention Center" in Dillon, South Carolina between October 18th and 20th to get in the ring and do battle.

Johnny Davis believes he may have discovered a source for cultivating future world champions as interest grows in the sport and the East Coast Classic draws bigger and better competition each year. He may be correct, in fact, more than half of the competitors in the tournament were making their in-ring kickboxing debut and many of the fights stilled proved to be main event caliber.
