1. A contest or exhibition may not be arranged on behalf of any promoter except by a licensed matchmaker or the promoter.

2. The licensed matchmaker or promoter for a program of unarmed combat shall submit his or her proposed bout to the Executive Director or the Executive Director's designee by a date designated by the Executive Director or the Executive Director's designee. The Executive Director or the Executive Director's designee may review any bout arranged by a licensed matchmaker or promoter to determine whether the proposed bout puts at risk the health and safety of either contestant.

3. The Executive Director or the Executive Director's designee shall consider the following factors in determining whether or not to approve a proposed bout:

(a) The professional and amateur records and experience of the proposed unarmed combatants;

(b) The skill of the unarmed combatants;

(c) The physical condition of the unarmed combatants, including, without limitation, prior injuries suffered by the unarmed combatants; and

(d) Any other considerations regarding the health and safety of the unarmed combatants that the Executive Director or the Executive Director's designee deems relevant.

4. If the Executive Director or the Executive Director's designee determines from his or her review that the proposed bout would put at risk the health and safety of either unarmed combatant, the Executive Director or the Executive Director's designee shall not approve the bout.

5. A promoter aggrieved by the decision made under this section by the Executive Director or the Executive Director's designee may appeal the decision to the Chair or a Commissioner designated by the Chair up to 72 hours before the time the promoter intended the proposed bout to take place. The decision becomes final if the promoter fails to appeal the decision before the date of the proposed bout.

6. After considering an appeal filed under this section, the Chair or Commissioner designated by the Chair may uphold, modify or reverse the decision of the Executive Director or the Executive Director's designee. The Chair or Commissioner designated by the Chair may condition or limit his or her decision in any manner deemed appropriate.

7. The repeated submission of mismatched proposed bouts constitutes grounds for disciplinary action against the licensed matchmaker or promoter.
