Kenny Rogers made the song "The Gambler" famous many years ago, telling people "know when to hold them, know when to fold them." Former World Series of Poker player, Ron Rose, evidently knew "when to walk away and when to run" with the International Fighting Championships money.
In a truly bizarre story the past 24 hours, MMAWeekly.com broke the story yesterday on our Soundoff Forum that the IFC's partner for the Sturgis effort, multiple time world poker champion Ron Rose, played a stunning hand. Rose without a word, shut down the E-tickets computers used to purchase IFC and Sturgis Music Festival tickets, took the computers and the thousands of dollars in cash collected so far and bolted out of Strugis. His whereabouts at this time are unknown.
IFC commissioner Paul Smith has been frantically working behind the scenes to make sure that the show goes on but as of now fighters have been told to not take their flights to Sturgis unless they hear back from the IFC. The International Fighting Championships was hoping to hear something by 10am this morning, but as of press time the event was not happening.
This fight card, featuring Jeremy Horn vs Nathan Marquardt, not to mention the rest of the Sturgis Music Festival featuring BB King among other groups has become a casualty. A 15 thousand seat arena is empty as it has taken a huge chunk of the celebration out of the biker rally in South Dakota.
