Adrienne Simmons, a 34-year-old female kickboxer, died Monday afternoon after taking part in a competition over the weekend. The Atlanta native was competing in Florida for an event sponsored by the International Kickboxing Federation. Simmons took a devastating left hook to the head during the third and final round of her fight. The promotion failed to have proper medical staff onsite and Simmons medical attention was delayed.
The MMA and Kickboxing community are coming together to give this horrific accident a voice. We have created a Blue Ribbon for the fighters to wear in Rememberance as well as Solidarity for us all to come together and make a change to keep ALL fighters safe. This Ribbon represents Lindsay Scheer (Solidarity) and Adrienne Simmons (Remembrance) because both need a voice.
Purchase a blue ribbon to iron onto your garments. They are 3" high, $5 each, shipping included to anywhere you are.
Thank you for your support.
