"BRAINS OVER BRAWN" is the mantra of Ohio Kickboxing Promotions (OKP). We provide an outlet for athletes to compete and gain experience in tournaments where skill and safety are priority #1.
Point-Based Muay Thai (PBMT) and Point-Based Kickboxing (PBKB) are semi-contact events where there are NO KNOCKOUTS ALLOWED! Instead, technique and self-control are scored.
Semi-Contact enables you to get the necessary experience while minimizing injury before advancing to full contact. When ready, you can advance to full contact events confident and fully prepared.
COMBAT CONTROL is a competition where martial artists can employ the principle of self-control as there are NO KNOCKOUTS ALLOWED! Competitors must be able to manage their emotions in a stressful situation, demonstrating skill and technique NOT uncontrolled reactions. Thereby exhibiting rational thought and self-control (i.e. "Brains over Brawn").
Note: Kids will be matched according to their weight/age.
We have implemented A, B, C, and Novice Classes to try and create a safer competition for everyone. This is not done in all divisions at this time ... only where we feel it is needed and/or requested. This is in an effort to keep events safe and fair.. If you have the proven experience and skills and not an official record, you still may be able to fight in a higher class, but it must be approved in advance.
A- Class: 11+
B- Class: 6 - 10
C- Class: 3 - 5
NOVICE: Less than 3
If your next fight is your 4th – You will need to go into C-Class or above. There will be an option to merge into another similar Class Division if you do not have an opponent as the tournament nears.
The reason OKP does this is because when you have a fighter just breaking out of the Novice 0 to 3 fights’ range, they go into the a division to fight a fighter with an extensive record. This does not give the newer fighter a fair chance. This also poses potential safety risks to a younger fighter looking to progress in the sport.
Our format focuses on technical skill and point scoring, rather than full-contact power. We promote a safe environment for athletes of all ages. The men's division consists of men ages 18yrs - 39yrs.
Fighters are matched based on age, experience, skill level, and gender, ensuring fair competition. As with the men, our women's division is for women ages 18yrs - 39yrs.
We welcome fighters of all ages and experience levels, from beginners to advanced competitors. We include divisions for masters (40+), allowing older fighters to compete safely and competitively.
Age is the primary factor with weight as the secondary for juniors. These are defined as ages 17 and below (with divisions for 8-10, 11-12, 13-14, and 15-17).
Techniques must land in the designated striking area to score.
