Three of our fighters from Level Up have been selected to compete at the WKA World Championship Tournament in Tuscany Italy. Patrick Rivera, Luther Smith, and Jared Tipton will be looking to bring three World Titles back to Maryland. Coach Jason Farrell will also be traveling with them to Coach for Team USA. This is an amazing opportunity for Level Up. We are fortunate to have Ink Generation sponsor us in effort to help make this trip possible. All the proceeds from the sales of this shirt goes directly to getting the guys to Italy.

October 28, 2014 to November 2, 2014, Level Up will be sending 3 fighters and Coach Jason to Italy to represent North America in the 2014 Unified World Championships. This tournament draws fighters from all over the world and will be part of the final leg of Luther, Jared, and Pat’s amateur career. All three will become professional fighters next year. Having the title of World Champion as they enter the pro arena of competition gives them a boost as far as what promotions book them, as well as what sponsors are willing to pay them which is huge as they begin this journey.

Here is the breakdown of our sponsor packages:
Platinum Package – $5000
-Two videos. You can choose what type you would prefer. I will send you samples of some of the videos I have created. Ideally, we would shoot a video with our fighters at your place of business. This video would be produced as a commercial to promote your company. In addition, I would produce a 30-60 second video Highlight Commercial style video that you’ll be able to post on your website, Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, and any other social media. We will also share these videos from all our personal social media accounts as well drive high traffic to your business website.
-Logo Placement on our walk out shirts for the rest of 2014. Your logo will become a staple on our team t-shirts. Since we fight constantly (at least 1-2X per month), your company logo will be seen often and we would always thank you before and after each fight for your generous support. Fighters from Level Up and myself wearing your logo will share photos to your social media and websites.
-We will help promote any events you have coming up. In social media, the more of those links that pop up, the more traffic they get. We can help increase your interaction with more people to bring you a higher volume of customers.
-You will always get 2 shirts of any fight team design that we come up with. These shirts are limited edition and always sell out. As mentioned earlier, these shirts will have your logo on them.
-We will back link your website to our website which is mutually beneficial for us both. This increases both of our rankings in Google search engines.
-If you have a Google Plus page we will Plus 1 your posts which will increase your ranking in Google search engines (If you don’t have one, they are easy to set up yourself or we can help). The Value of this package exceeds the cost. I have shot the types of video we have planned to do for you for $3000 alone. For the 30-60 second Clips, I usually charge $1200. You will see that our Logo package alone is $1000 to be on the walk out shirts. Add on top of that what it would cost to hire someone to do the social media blast that we will provide, you could be looking at anywhere from $500 per month up $3000.
Gold Package – $2500

This past Friday May 23rd, Level Up took another huge step.
Patrick Rivera, would become the first fighter from Maryland to fight in the biggest Muay Thai promotion in the world. Lion Fight has run all their shows until now in Las Vegas. There was whispers that they planned to run a show on the East Coast, the excitement was in the air. This show has quickly become the equivalent of the UFC to MMA fans. So far Lion Fight Promotions has run incredible shows starring the American Pioneers of the sport, as well as big name fighters from all over the World. This event would take place at the Foxwoods Casino in Connecticut. The card would feature some of Lion Fight and Muay Thai’s brightest Stars, including Jason Andrada, Cosmo Alexander, Tiffany Van Soest, and Kevin Ross. The East Coast has a thriving Muay Thai scene, between New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia, and Virginia, you can find some high level fighting. Having Lion Fight come to the East Coast proved to be a monumental step in not only the state of the sport here on the East Coast but also for the sport in general.
The instant we heard that the show was definitely coming to the East Coast Coach Jason contacted Lion Fight. After a few emails, we were in. We drew a tough opponent from New York named Pawel Zawistowski. Pawel was listed as 13-2 with 8 Knockouts. Pat has only 6 Muay Thai and Kickboxing fights. With a record of 4-2. The last fight Pat had was at WKA nationals and was a controversial Decision loss. Coach Jason believes that Patrick is one of the future stars of Combat Sports and wanted him to get right back in the ring. When this opportunity presented itself, it was a no brainer. We had some bumps a long the road in training camp. Patrick injured his knee, and a few days later caught the flu which had him in bed and out of training all together for 5 days. We knew these variables would add extra pressure, but didn’t want to miss out on being a part of this historic event. We also had 40 people committed to coming up to support, so we couldn’t let them down.
On fight day we would report to the dressing room area at 5pm. The dressing rooms, were literally dressing rooms for performers. The room we were in was pretty small. At first it was just us and another Amatuer fighter from the undercard. By 6:30pm, the room would fill up with Lucy Payne and her Coach, Chris Mauceri and his Corner men, and Mark Holst and his team. We did our best to warm up in the space we had. Before we knew it, the time had come to make our way upstairs. This would be the biggest venue Patrick has fought on to date. He made the adjustment to the crowd and the lights quickly after we were able to find where our team was located in the stands.
Once the fight began Pat would work through his punching systems, landing big shots in combination. Mixing in the the kicks to put an exclamation on his work. We knew that Pawel likes to stalk, so we used footwork to find angles after Patricks combinations to keep Pawel from being able to get set for returns. Toward the end of the first round Pat caught a lead leg kick from Zawistowski and swept him off his support foot. Round two was more of the same. Pat landing big punches, as well as some well placed low kicks to both legs. Closing in on the end of the second round Pat was also able to land a clean head kick. Seeing that we were up two rounds, the call was to play it safe in the third. Pawel has knocked out 8 people, and is known for being aggressive. So Patrick used his footwork and movement to stay busy without getting drawn into a last round slugfest. We would give the third round to Pawel based on his activity level. Two rounds to one secures us the fight. Two judges saw it that way, one did not. Patrick Rivera would be awarded a split decision victory.
We can’t thank Lion Fight Promotions enough for the opportunity to be on this historic event. This was a huge step for our gym. We have been open less than a year, in that time we have accomplished a lot, this being one of our highest achievements. We are thankful to Work Shop and Pawel for giving us a tough fight. We’d also like to thank everyone that came to support Pat in this adventure. Also toINK Generationfor printing our shirts, which as always were a big hit. We’d also like to thankSteve Bauzenfor catching each moment with these incredible photos
Up Next we have Patrick and Jared making their A Class rules Muay Thai debut at Warriors Cup in New Jersey June 14th!!
