More Crytpo coming to MMA?
Maybe, MMANYTT reported last week that Firas Zahabi, head coach of Tristar Gym home of Georges St-Pierre and new Bellator Welterweight Champion Rory MacDonald is lobbying for DASH sponsorship for fighters that fight out of the famed gym.
Bellator 192 was the promotion's first event of the year and MacDonald's successful title fight. Leading up to the event MacDonald had commented on his DASH sponsorship and said he has hoped to create a trend in MMA where more cryptocurrency sponsored fighters would emerge in the sport. Not long after that, Michael Chandler had also announced a partnership with cryptocurrency exchange Coin Lion. If Zahabi's campaign succeeds this could be a new trend and yet another reason for more fighters to come over to Bellator where grabbing up fighter sponsorship seems more lucrative in the sport.
If the history of cryptocurrency has taught us anything it is that, jumping into something early in crypto can prove lucrative in the long run. For more on Zahabi's proposal check out the article in the link below:

This would be a bloody good turn for fighters and their pay over their career

Absolutely. Until things change or the Ali Act gets expanded to MMA whatever helps in the mean time is a plus.

Now that Crypto and MMA have crossed over, if I could just get beer and music and sailing to join the party and I would be set!
Good news indeed and it will be nice to see some very specific and applicable altcoins get their conneciton to the normies through MMA.
Glad I stumbled upon this via @jiujitsu

And it's only just getting started considering it's the beginning of the year. I know a few fighters have jumped on Steemit as well, it's be nice if they got STEEM logo's at some big events.

Agreed. Upvoted and followed so I can get your articles directly.
Imagine the people whose first connection to the crypto world will be through STEEM rather than BTC. With Steemit, Dtube, and all the smart tokens to come, I never thought it possible originally but now I do.
Thanks again and keep the info coming.
