In the world of Mixed Martial Arts, Jesse Finney is arguably the most popular name in the Midwest.  In being a top of the line promoter, with an undefeated Mixed Martial Arts fighting record on the side, Extreme Fight Productions couldn’t have landed a more prestigious name in Jesse Finney. Extreme Fight Productions President Brian Miller said, "We are extremely excited to have the opportunity to work with Jesse Finney and his team.  Jesse and his team are second to none when it comes to promoting Mixed Martial Arts, and it’s a very exciting time for everybody involved. Extreme Fight Productions looks forward to working with Jesse in the months and years to come".

Aside from having an undefeated professional Mixed Martial Arts record, Finney has proven himself as a top notch promoter and coach as well. Finney is currently the head coach of the St. Louis Enforcers.  The Enforcers were the 2007 World Combat League’s Champions.  On top of being a championship coach, Finney has become a renowned name in the mixed martial arts industry. On July 20, 2008 ISKA President Cory Schafer named Finney as the Midwest Director of Promotions. Finney will work with regional promoters in the logistics of full-service event promotion and sanctioning.

Some of Finney’s additional roles include the following; CEO of Finney’s Mixed Martial Arts, Kickboxing, and Boxing, CEO of Shamrock Productions, and President of JKR Real Estate Investments Group.  Perhaps one of Jesse’s most prized accomplishment’s is knowing that his gym has been recognized as the number one top training in the USA for professional Mixed Martial Arts, Kickboxing, and Boxing professionals.  Numerous fighters including Timmy Connors, Kevin Engel, Adam Cella, Mark Mayfield, Mike Cory (IFL), Steve Berger (UFC & Bodog Veteran), and Pat Healy (IFL & UFC) have learned under Finney.

It’s an exciting time around here. We can’t wait to start working with Jesse and his team.  They bring an abundance of knowledge and expertise that will absolutely be beneficial to this entire process”. Extreme Fight Productions Owner Brian Miller said. Miller went on to say, "We know they are a first class team, but more importantly they have earned the utmost respect from anybody involved in this profession.  It’s a winning situation for all involved, and we can’t wait to get to work".
