MURRIETA, Calif., June 4, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ActionView International, Inc. (Pink Sheets:AVEW) and its wholly owned MatchFights LLC subsidiary today announced the final details for the June 5, 2010 World Championship Full Contact (WCFC) event, "WCFC II - Proving Ground," at The Rail Event Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. The card consists of nine total bouts, including fighters that range from featherweight to light heavyweight classifications and one female fight.
ActionView International's wholly-owned MatchFights subsidiary delivers the most exciting brand of full contact fighting under its World Championship Full Contact (WCFC) banner. MatchFights' events are broadcast live in television quality to a worldwide audience over the Internet, and revenue is derived from pay-per-view buys. The brand's inaugural April 3rd event, which featured eight bouts and fighters ranging from flyweight to light heavyweight classifications, was considered a stunning success with a packed house watching quality bouts from top to bottom on the fight card. The WCFC Internet broadcast marked the first time that a live Internet event was broadcast worldwide in television quality without a satellite uplink.
Fans can sign up to watch the three hour live pay-per-view broadcast for only $14.95 at www.WCFC.com, and tickets to attend the show at The Rail can be purchased through a link at www.WCFC.com, through all Smith's Tix locations (www.smithstix.com), at The Rail Event Center box office, or by phone at 888-310-4620.
Doors open for the event at 6:00 pm MDT and the pre-fight broadcast begins at 6:30 pm MDT.

"There's real animosity between some of these fighters and I expect tremendous action in all of the bouts."
