"I've been a fan of MMA sports for years," said Gary Kimmons. "MMA is the fastest growing sport in the world and this is a great opportunity for eDoorways to showcase our PowerKey and PowerChannel technologies with the launch of the new MusclePharm MMA-Channel. We’ve been working with MusclePharm® Corporation (OTCBB: MSLP), one of the fastest growing sports nutrition companies in the industry, and we plan to leverage its relationships and resources for the benefit of fighters, the sponsors, and the industry at large."
Fighters are turning to social media in droves. Mixed martial artists are among the most passionate adopters of social media and social networking, which gives them the ability to connect with fans on their terms. They realize that they are their own brand and that their brand value can be increased in measurable ways. Chuck Liddell has amassed 43,000 Twitter followers. Some 28,000 fans are following UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre while lightweight king B.J. Penn boasts nearly 31,000 followers.
MMA fighters are celebrities. The new MusclePharm® MMA Channel will allow all athletes who compete in UFC®, Strikeforce, and other top MMA organizations to communicate and keep fans updated with their daily activities. The MusclePharm® MMA Channel will not strictly be for individuals. MMA Suppliers, Gyms and Trainers will be able to utilize the channel to help develop a loyal fan base. The new channel will allow fans to keep updated with the latest news, follow fighters, and communicate with other fans who share the same passion.
Cory Gregory, President of MusclePharm®, stated that “Because of the highly personal nature of the MMA industry, the MusclePharm® MMA Channel will be built as a personal medium. Fans have an insatiable demand for the very latest moves, rumors or how many times a fighter went to the gym that day. Details like that are very interesting to the real fan. Our MusclePharm® MMA Channel will give fans intimate access to the lives of fighters like never before.”
