Abstract

A special fight ring center structure for safely and securely hanging a rope or assist mechanism at a pre-determined hanging point above a traditional fighter ring for use by the wrestlers for additional athleticism and entertainment of the viewers. The special fight ring includes at least three essentially vertical columns connected to one end of each of at least three converging and essentially horizontal beams; a convergence plate connected to the three horizontal beams; and a hanging means connected to the convergence plate and sized to a length to hang at a predetermined height above a mat of the traditional fighter ring.
