IMMAF’s core values are integral to MMA as a sport. Resilience is the ability to recover quickly from difficulties; to be able to accept hardship and rebound. This mental and physical toughness is a strong attribute shown by all involved with IMMAF 👍 #IMMAFValues

⚡️ IMMAF meets all known criteria for sport recognition. At least 4️⃣0️⃣ members recognised by their National Olympic Committee (NOC) and/or highest national sporting authority (NSA) are required. IMMAF is the only int'l MMA federation that has achieved this.
