Article 41 - Combative Sports
1002 - Combative Sports Prohibited.

§ 1002. Combative sports prohibited. 1. The conduct of combative
sports outside the supervision of the commission or an authorized
sanctioning entity is prohibited.

2. A person advances a prohibited combative sport when, acting other
than as a spectator, he or she engages in conduct which materially aids
any unauthorized combative sport. Such conduct includes but is not
limited to conduct directed toward the creation, establishment or
performance of a prohibited combative sport, toward the acquisition or
maintenance of premises, paraphernalia, equipment or apparatus therefor,
toward the solicitation or inducement of persons to attend or
participate therein, toward the actual conduct of the performance
thereof, toward the arrangement of any of its financial or promotional
phases, or toward any other phase of a prohibited combative sport. One
advances a prohibited combative sport when, having substantial
proprietary or other authoritative control over premises being used with
his or her knowledge for purposes of a prohibited combative sport, he or
she permits such to occur or continue or makes no effort to prevent its
occurrence or continuation.

3. A person profits from a prohibited combative sport when he or she
accepts or receives money or other property with intent to participate
in the proceeds of a prohibited combative sport, or pursuant to an
agreement or understanding with any person whereby he or she
participates or is to participate in the proceeds of a prohibited
combative sport.
