The Chairman is aware of this imposter.
The similarities are eerie (and completely coincidental, I promise!). Beyond the initials and logo, the International Fight League was conceived at the beginning of 2006, and had a relatively short inaugural season. 2007 is supposed to be its first full season. It is also "the world’s first team-based professional mixed martial arts league". Each team puts up one fighter in each of five different weight classes (lightweight [155 lbs.], welterweight [170 lbs.], middleweight [185 lbs.], light heavyweight [205 lbs.], heavyweight [265 lbs.]) and the team to win best of the five wins the match.
