Support the Sport please

Please support our beloved full contact sports by visiting our new project and telling all your martial arts friends about it.
If you are a professional fighter you can sign up for a VERY small monthly fee and you will then be marketed heavyli world wide. If you have a personal sponsor they can pay for your profile and they will get a web banner in your profile linking to their own web site.

It is funny the way some people look at the fact that a small fee is necessary.

A lot of professional fighters are completely unknown by match makers / promoters around the world and when they need fighters for an event it is the hardest job of them all. There simply isn't NOWHERE to turn to for help - it's not like we have the Yellow Pages of pro fighters somewhere right.

But if you pay a small fee you can have a profile on AllProFighters.com. The lowest possible fight purse paid to for example an A-class Muaythai fighter is many times higher than what I charge.
Actually as a fighter you don't even have to pay for the profile your self. If you have or get a sponsor - doesn't have to be a big one, they can pay for the profile. The fee gets them a web banner (advertising) in the profile and they will enhance the web trafic on their own web site. Getting a web banner on the internet for four months for 30 Euros is VERY cheap.

And yes I would like to make money on this service - that is no secret. It is time for the full contact martial arts to become professional in the marketing department too. Money makes the world go around - we can not change that. But if we want our beloved sports to grow we need to market the fighters, market the events (this is already done - is that also wrong. I mean promoters actually charge you at the entrance!?), market the gyms, market different services etc.

Running a web site that enables promoters world wide to get in touch with pro fighters of all levels in different disciplines is not free but the value for the fighters, the promoters and in the end the fans is VAST!

Let's try to look forward and see money as a positive thing that can do a lot of good things and let's all use AllProFighters.com so the up and coming fighters with only one or two pro fights can get international fights and more money for their efforts. (At the end of the day the fighters will be making a lot more money than I will and this is the way it should be!).
