Shattered fists, throw the strongest punches
The shattered fist association, a boxing group that doubles both as tournaments and a place for matches and a training camp. Boxers sent here put everything on the line, they sign a contract to waive responsibility for injuries and to state that they will never compete in another professional fight if they fail at the Shattered fist association. The SFA's goal is simple, they believe that great fighters are manufactured. Mike Tyson only became that because of the intense training from youth, but they believe they know the key to making strong fighters. Pressure, pressure is the key either the fighter collapses under it, or they ride up like a diamond they become more due to outlasting and nesting the pressure put on them. There are 3 weight classes, light, middle, heavy. All of these weight classes have the lighter and heavier versions combined, for instance welter weight fighters would still be in the middle weight. On top of that these fights are mixed gender, the reason for both of these is that the SFA believes if your style isn't strong enough to surpass biological disadvantages, then it was never meant to succeed. Each team has two people for each weight class, all that means is each wing has 6 people and your partner for your weight class is the person you will have to fight eventually. The SFA believes in 2 types of people, DIAMONDS, and COAL. Diamonds: prodigies, people who have skill and power without needing to unlock it. These are stars ready for the making and plucked early, they will show everyone they are diamonds or they will fracture and turn out to be not but glass. Coal: average people, you have to work hard and theirs a chance you will never be as good as other people. Your designed to break under diamonds, but the truth is coal put under pressure becomes a diamond. Will it crush you, or will you show everyone that you can shine? The SFA does have the standard rules but often times coaches might lie about injuries, the shattered fist gets its name from a boxer that fought with a broken hand and ending his opponents career with it. You must be willing to sacrifice everything for just one more win, if not than you can never make it.
