Updated: March 15, 2013
After a quarter century, the Budweiser, Great American Lager Original Toughman Contest continues to lead the fight industry as the only boxing event where the outcome can NEVER be predicted, as the only semi-professional pugilistic version that demands both big boxing gloves and the shortest rounds, and as the event with undeniably the best safety record of all adult boxing. It's no wonder it's tied for the highest ratings for Fox Sports on "Best Damn Toughman". The Original Toughman Contest "HITS" town once again, live at The Statehouse Convention Center, Friday and Saturday, March 15th and 16th at 8pm. Want to Fight? Call 1-989-450-6099 or enter online at www.toughmancontest.net <http://www.toughmancontest.net>. Advance Tickets as low as $15.00 per day are on sale now at all 3 Little Rock and both North Little Rock CROW-BURLINGAME BUMPER TO BUMPER LOCATIONS or charge at 989-450-6099 $5.00 more day of show. Box office opens at Statehouse Convention Center 6 pm both nights.

A field of over40 local fighters, including Toughwomen is expected. From those already registered, it's easy to see the fighters come from all walks of life: a real estate salesman to a member of the military, from production line tough guy to high school teacher, and they come from all over the local area. Every competitor will be going toe-to-toe in front of friends and family for a little fame and fortune. Mr. T, one of Toughman's famous alumni, summed it up, "No wimps allowed. If we wanted a best man, we'd go to a wedding, if we're looking for a good man, we'll look in the military, we want the TOUGHEST man!" Daring and dogged fighters fitting the description can register online at www.toughmancontest.net <http://www.toughmancontest.net> In addition to a daredevil attitude, competitors must be at least 18, and pass the on-site physical. Over $3,000 in cash will be awarded at the conclusion of the finals on Saturday night. Sponsored by The Peabody Little Rock, Crow-Burlingame Bumper to Bumper, Golden Eagle Distributing of Arkansas, The Budweiser Ring Girls will be in attendance both nights! The Original Toughman Contest is regulated in Arkansas by the Arkansas Athletic Commission and requires, among other elements of safety: 1) doctor at ringside 2) insurance for fighters 3) breathalyzer tests & 4) maximum safety gear. For further information, contact Stephen Coppler, President at 989.450.6099 or scoppler@yahoo.com <mailto:scoppler@yahoo.com>
