- Dennis "Kaheke" Alexio
Molokai,
Hawaii, USA 70-*2/65, Pro Boxing: 5-1/3,
5'11", 215-225, 3-12-59, Self
- IKF Pro Full Contact Rules
Heavyweight World Champion.
- Alexio won
his IKF title when he defeated Barrington
Patterson of London, England by TKO at the end of the 5th round In Hawaii, USA
on May 31st, 1997.
- First Defense: May 1st, 1998, Sacramento Memorial Auditorium, Sacramento,
California, USA: Defeated Achille Roger of France by TKO at 1:10 of round 5.
- Alexio's World
Title was retired by the IKF on November
24th, 2003. The reason was because the IKF
Organization had been trying to contact Mr. Alexio since June of 2003, to
discuss what his future plans for the sport were, such as a title defense, or a
retirement of his title. However we never received any return phone call.
- Alexio
has had a "BRILLIANT" career and will be remembered as THE
BEST Heavyweight and Super Heavyweight FCR fighter in the world for years to
come. We wish him the best in his future.
- (*) Dennis Alexio:
The reason for the * by Alexio's record is
because of the questions raised about his second loss. (First to Don Wilson)
A loss to Stan Longinidis in Australia in a "Leg Kick" rules
bout. In the bout, Longinidis won on a first round TKO after Alexio's leg was
broken (spiral fracture) following a leg kick from Longinidis. Later, Alexio
claimed he broke it when he stepped in a hole in the ring padding just after the
kick. Longinidis' camp and many others said it was broke when Alexio checked one
of Longinidis' kicks and when he stepped back and put weight on it, the leg
obviously gave way. The bout was sanctioned by the ISKA and the WKA. The ISKA
Australia and the WKA kept the fight as a win for Longinidis while ISKA USA
reversed the decision to a no contest to avoid giving Alexio a loss. Since the
bout, many have given their thoughts about how Alexio's leg broke. Some for,
some against. Since we were not there, we felt it best to explain what we do
know about it. Since medical experts we have spoken to have said a spiral
fracture could not happen just from twisting a leg on a mat, we must recognize
the fact that it could have been broken as explained above from the kick. After
the bout, Alexio's corner said on TV: "Stan won tonight with an excellent
kick, but Dennis is a warrior, as is Stan, and will be back". (Bob Wall
and Nasser Niavaroni). Regardless, 1 more loss does not change who Alexio is
or who Longinidis is. Both are great fighters. It's just too bad there wasn't
any $$ left after this bout to make a rematch, so all questions about who was
better than who would be answered... View this bout for yourself by

On May 15th, 1999 Longinidis got his long awaited shot an an IKF Title in
Lowell Massachusetts, USA. However his opponent, the current IKF World Champion
Rick Roufus stopped him in round 9 after Loniginidis suffered a broken bone in
his foot. Roufus was ahead on all 3 judges cards at the time, 89-81, 86-83 and

Omsk, Siberia,

- IKF Pro Full Contact Rules Super

- Avtamonov won his title when he defeated Perry Ben of Coventry, England by
unanimous decision, 120-110, 120-107, 120-107 in Omsk, Siberia, Russia on
February 3rd, 2001.
- Avtamonov was scheduled to defend his title on October 26th, 2002, in
Butler, Pennsylvania, USA against Jimmy Stewart. However his trainer Oleg
Vadaturskiy never even attempted to attain the proper Visa's (as agreed with
him and the promoter) to come to America. Instead of informing the IKF or Stewart's promoters of this, he simply
stopped responding to any e-mails 3 weeks prior to the fight date. To the best
of our knowledge, although Avtamonov may have wanted to fight, his trainer had
no desire to travel to the USA for the fight. This left the IKF no choice but to retire the title from Avtamonov
in December of 2002 since his trainer had no plans of him meeting the challenge.

- Calleros won his IKF title on June 26th, 2000 when he defeated Miguel Reyes
of Tijauana, Baja CA, Mexico by unanimous decision, 96-92, 97-91 and 97-91 in
Sacramento CA, USA.
- Calleros was never challenged for his title yet fought for for several
other IKF Titles, including San Shou.
- On October 17th, 2009 Calleros arrived at weigh-ins in Ontario, Canada to
fight for the vacant IKF Pro Full Contact Rules Super Welterweight World Title
against Brad Fowler of London, Ontario Canada. However, Calleros came in "18
lbs." overweight. The top limit of the bout was 153 lbs./69.5Kg. (Super
Welterweight). The bout was obviously scratched and Calleros was placed on a
minimum 12 month suspension
by the IKF with "Bout Expense" fines due to the event Promoter.
- Calleros fine was based on the Promoter's out of pocket expenses which
included: Eye Exam: $125.00, Blood Work: $120.00, CATSCAN: $500.00, Flights:
$900.00, Travel expenses: $200.00, Opponents purse that was paid to Mr. Fowler:
$1,200.00 Total $3,045.00.
- The IKF Fined Calleros $1,000.00 for not making his weight: The IKF elected
to have this fine paid to the Promoter to assist with the THOUSANDS of dollars
in Refunded Ticket Sales caused by the bout cancellation. Total due from Mr.
Calleros to Promoter: $4,045.00. Suspensions remain until all Fines are paid in
Full to Promoter.
- Calleros ignored his IKF Suspension and
fought "3" more times as a Pro boxer.
- 10-24-2009, Sky City Casino, Acoma, New Mexico, USA
- 3-25, 2010, Commerce Casino, Commerce, California, USA

- 1-16-12: Calleros has made no attempts to pay any portion of his fine. On
this day the IKF was informed of some legal troubles that makes it apparent that
the Promoter will see none of the fees due to him and sadly, due to these legal
issues, we may never see Mr. Calleros in the ring again. This determination has
brought the IKF to retire Mr. Calleros of his IKF World Title. A great loss to
what the IKF has always known as a exciting fighter and a great person.

the title when Silva stopped him in the first round with a right hand KO. A
rematch was talked about but never came about.

- IKF Retired Mr. Nevitt's title on May 8th, 2009. This decision was based
upon e-mails that were between the IKF and Mr. Nevitt back in December of 2008.
At the time, Mr. Nevitt had been making very good money as a Pro Boxer.
However,
someone wanted to challenge him for his IKF Title. An e-mail was sent to Mr.
Nevitt that stated, "What are you asking to defend your title? Or If no
one can pay it, would you consider retiring the title since you are making so
much more in Pro boxing?" In which he replied, "No less than
$10,000. Thank you and have a nice day! " From this the IKF replied, "Well,
That sums it up Mike. No Pro Kickboxing promoters doing FCR Rules has that kind
of $$, and none are making that from their gate to sponsorship. The $$ just are
not there. That being said, Can we agree to retire your title based on the fact
that you are doing so well in Pro boxing, that you are going to continue down
that line then?" Mr. Nevitt replied on Tuesday, December 16, 2008, "Sure,
I haven't even gotten an offer in 3 years. Kickboxing is a thing of the past.
It's really to bad, for my true love will always be hands and feet. So whatever
you feel fit for my title is up to you. Take care. Thank you and have a nice
day! Mike Nevitt mybulldogjack@aol.com (312)718-1072."
We wish Mr.
Nevitt great success in his Pro Boxing Career.

- Rick "The Jet" Roufus
Atlanta,
Georgia, USA, Self
- IKF
Pro Full Contact Rules Light Heavyweight
World Champion.
- Roufus became the second IKF Mens PRO CHAMPION and the second IKF Mens Pro
World Champion when he defeated Michael McDonald of Vancouver, BC, Canada, by "KO"
at :43 seconds of round 1. The bout was at Caesars Tahoe Casino in Tahoe, NV,
USA on January 22nd, 1994.
- Sadly the promoter never bought Rick or Juan Torres their belts for their
IKF Titles this night.
- Rofus' Title was later Transferred to the IKF World Heavyweight
International Rules Title. See below for
explanation Roufus is still fighting in both Boxing and Kickboxing.
- Transfer: In 1998, having NEVER been challenged for his title he
won in 1992, Roufus made 2 career changing decisions. 1, He moved up in weight
class and 2, he "SWITCHED" to Leg Kick / International Rules
since he decided he no longer wanted to do Full Contact, above the waist Rules.
According to IKF (*) Rules, If an IKF Champion is "NEVER"
challenged at the title weight and rules division they have won their title at,
for a minimum of 3 years, the champion may move their "TITLE"
to a different weight class to seek challenges. This is ONLY possible "IF"
the title the champion holds is VACANT and has NEVER been held by ANYONE in the
weight class the Champion desires to move to. In addition, if the same desired
title is vacant and HAS NEVER been held by ANYONE in a Different Rules Division,
and the champion has decided to make a fighting style change, he/she may ALSO
change their title to that different Rules Division, again, IF they have NEVER
been challenged at the winning weight and division for a minimum of 3 years and
AGAIN, the title they are moving to has NEVER been held by Anyone.
- Roufus did both of these things in 1998. The stipulations though are that
the fighter must defend the title within 12 months after being transferred,
against an opponent selected by the IKF. If the Champion Does Not defend the new
title, they will be switched back to their original title winning position.
- (*) This Ruling was created for 2 reasons, 1, to help create new IKF
champions in different rule divisions and 2, to keep IKF Champions busy rather
than stay idle after winning a title. Some fighters, like Roufus, just don't get
challenged due to their requested purse, ability etc. Because of this, the title
they won may sit unchallenged. By allowing movement, it opens up positions for
new champions and as long as the title holder defends their new title, we see NO
PROBLEM with this rule.
- Rick "The Jet" Roufus
Atlanta,
Georgia, USA, Self
- IKF
Pro International Rules Heavyweight World
Champion.
- Roufus won his title on May 15th, 1999 when he defeated Stan Longinidis (Right)
of Boxhill, Victoria, Australia by TKO after Loniginidis suffered a broken bone
in his foot at the end of round 9. Roufus was ahead on all 3 judges cards at the
time, 89-81, 86-83 and 88-81. The bout was in Lowell Massachusetts, USA
- On September 29th, 2003 Roufus Officially announced his retirement to the
IKF. In his last event, he tore his ACL (Knee). Although he had come back from
knee injuries in the past, this time he felt he could not recover from the
severity of the injury this time.
- "As we all know, Rick Roufus was and still is one of the most
recognized names in our sport. He has proven himself as a Champion to everyone
who follows in his footsteps. He was a true leader in his career and has set the
standard for what it takes to be a true WORLD Champion. We will miss his
excitement and star power for years to come." IKF President Steve
Fossum.
- Since his announced retirement, roufus has come back and fought "Many"
times. His latest quest is in the Mixed Martial Arts Cage.

- Wednesday, October 6th, 2004: Jimmy Stewart has done MORE to Promote a
World Title Challenge than ANY OTHER FIGHTER. In doing so he has had "SIX",
yes, "SIX" fighters pull out on him between October 2002 and October
2004. The last one was the last draw for us here at the IKF. Jim Tisdale is the
trainer of Eric Marshall of Florida. Marshall was scheduled to meet Stewart for
an October 9th showdown for the vacant title. However, on Monday, October 4th,
(5 days before their World Title Bout) Tisdale called the IKF and informed us
Marshall hurt his back sparring over the weekend and is forced to pull out of
the bout. Marshall was the 6th failed opponent for Stewart and marks the LAST
DRAW for us. stewart DESERVES this Title simply because he challenged ONLY THE
BEST for it. However, NONE of them were able to meet him in the ring and "Walk
The Walk" for it. Now that he has it, Stewart as well as us here at the IKF
can tell all Challengers or those questioning Stewarts ability, "Bring It
ON!"
- Stewart called to reture his title on December 10th, 2008. The reason was a
due to a career ending accident. Stewart was struck by a car while crossing the
street.
