Why do I need this bond?
The purpose of a Wisconsin boxing or mixed martial arts professional club or promoter license surety bond is to secure payment of fees or costs that relate to the issuance of a license under section 440.035 of the Wisconsin Statutes.
If the principal (MMA/boxing promoter) fails to comply with the terms of the bond agreement and the laws of Wisconsin and the combat sports promotion industry, a claim can be filed against the bond. If the claim is validated, the surety will cover all financial losses suffered by the state and general public up to the full $10,000 penal sum of the bond. The promoter is then responsible for reimbursing the surety.

What’s the fine print?
Wisconsin boxing and MMA promoter surety bonds will remain continuous unless otherwise canceled by the surety. Written notice must be provided to the promoter and the Wisconsin Department of Regulation and Licensing, Office of Legal Counsel in Madison, WI, via certified mail 60 days prior to cancellation. The surety’s liability will end 60 days after the state receives the termination notice or upon the principal filing and having a new bond accepted by the state, whichever comes first.
This bond must run the entire period of an unexpired boxing or mixed martial arts professional club or promoter’s license.
