LB 635 amends statute so 	that the following activities are under the purview of the Athletic Commission: professional bare	-knuckle 
mixed martial arts, professional mixed martial arts on ice, amateur kickboxing, and all slap fighting matches and exhibitions. 
 
The Department of Revenue estimates no impact to General Fund revenues and no cost to it to implement the bill. There is no basis to 
disagree with this estimate. 
 
Any increase in cash fund revenue to the State Athletic Commissioner	’s cash fund is estimated to be minimal.
