Last Call for tough guys…..NEF & Kimo want you!

SANTA ANA, California (July 10, 2007) – Only a week remains before New Era Fighting’s “World’s Toughest Man” contest’s initial tryouts (WTMC1) on July 18-20 at Quiet Cannon (AKA QC’s in Montebello) in Montebello, California.

All experienced or inexperienced fighters are eligible to compete in the “World’s Toughest Man” contest (aka “World’s Toughest Fighter Competition”) tryouts, provided they weigh a minimum of 205 pounds. Tryout sessions also serve as scouting opportunities for NEF to sign fighters for its other planned shows.

Combat fighters selected from the July 19-20 tryout session will advance to the next round, where they will fight each other in a tournament format to eventually determine 10 survivors. The final 10 who emerge from tryouts, as well as fighters who’ve already signed NEF promotional contracts, such as former porno king Aaron “The Bad Boy” Brink, will compete on a show in several months for the right to be crowned “World’s Toughest Man.”

The WTM contest winner will then be offered an anticipated $1,000,000 winner-take-all purse to fight living legend Kimo Leopoldo, headlining a full card for a pay-per-view broadcast live from Las Vegas at a date to be determined.

The NEF “World’s Toughest Man” contest initial tryouts will be taped and aired at dates and times to be determined on the Armed Forces Network and other International television networks for worldwide exposure in more than 117 countries in Africa and Europe, as well as in the United Kingdom and Canada.

Tickets, priced at $20.00 for July 19 and July 20, are for spectators only, fighters are not required to purchase a ticket or pay a tryout fee.

Registration for heavyweight fighters, as well as female models, is currently being held online at www.NewEraFighting.com and sign-ins for those selected from registration will be from 5 PM/PT to 8:30 PM/PT on Wednesday, July 18, followed by warm-ups and a rules meeting on Thursday afternoon. Fight tryouts are scheduled Thursday and Friday evenings, July 19-20.
