About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the event bond actually covers

Michigan regulates professional boxing and mixed martial arts through the Unarmed Combat Commission under the Michigan Unarmed Combat Regulatory Act (PA 403 of 2004). Before the department approves a contest or exhibition, the promoter must file an event bond.

The bond is fixed by the department at not less than $20,000 and not more than $50,000, executed by the promoter as principal, payable to the State of Michigan, and conditioned on faithful performance of the act. It can be used to satisfy payment to the professionals on the card, the department's costs for ring officials and physicians, and drug testing.

The statute requires the bond to be purchased at least 5 days before the contest. Enter the amount the Commission set for your event and apply — the application collects no credit information, and pricing starts from $100 — same honest pricing as every bond we write.
