WORLD SERIES OF FIGHTING - GLOBAL CHAMPIONSHIP
EXPANDS INTO PUERTO RICO AND ITALY
LAS VEGAS, NV March 25, 2016 World Series of Fighting – Global Championship (WSOF-GC) continues with the promotion of events around the world having recently entered into a strategic agreement with Royalty Combat in Puerto Rico to develop and build their talent across the Caribbean. WSOF-GC has also added Slam Fighting Championship to their list of affiliates, and will be hosting events under the WSOF Global banner in Italy.
“There are no shows too big or too small for true MMA fans,” states Zachary ‘Bootsy’ Harris, WSOF-GC Affiliate Coordinator. “I’ve traveled to some of the most remote areas in the world to see talented fighters that most people haven’t ever heard of yet. This is a great opportunity for us to work with Royalty Combat and Slam FC to help showcase them on a much grander scale. At the end of the day, we want to promote the sport and help it continue to thrive. Showcasing organizations like these will allow us to do that, and to find the best new talent.”
"We are thrilled about this opportunity to work with World Series of Fighting Global Championship, which has done a tremendous job introducing MMA to the rest of the world," said Wilfredo Jose Lopez, Owner of Royalty Combat. "As WSOF-GC continues to branch out into other areas in the world, it’s exciting to bring the White Cage to their audience. This gives our fighters and sponsors the opportunity to be associated with a world-renowned organization. We are very happy with this venture and look forward to building our brand with theirs."
Marco Santi, Owner of Slam FC, adds "We started as a very small organization and have been able to grow our company to be one of the biggest and very best in the Italian market. We focused on the quality of our events, fighters and matches; not just quantity. Our new partnership with WSOF Global will help SlamFC propel Italian MMA to the next legitimate level.”
“WSOF Global continues to team up with some exciting organizations to bring their events to our online audience,” said WSOF-GC President, Shawn Wright. “We have held recent events in China and Japan, added affiliates in Philippines and South Africa, and now by announcing these two deals in Puerto Rico and Italy, we are now covering four continents. Who wants to watch the same fights over and over again when you can watch the current emerging talent from all over the world on WSOF Global? We will continue to grow our fans access to events and assist our affiliates with grooming talent to create the future stars of MMA.”
Royalty Combat will host their next event on April 16 from PeƱuelas, Puerto Rico. Slam FC will host their first event WSOF Global - Italy event on April 30 from Florence, Italy. Every MMA fan can watch an unlimited number of events from around the world for only $4.99 per month at WSOFGC.com.
