Bamma has signed a deal with Channel 5 in the UK:good http://www.mmamania.com/2012/6/28/3...l-arts-mma-promotion-bamma-today-june-28-2012 That has to be a good thing for MMA exposure surely. As long as Bamma put on some decent shows, which they seem to be doing lately. I reckon it wont be long before Zuffa come sniffing, and buy Bamma, turning it into its UK feeder org...:deal
Brilliant news, should do wonders for British MMA and being on a mainstream Channel will help Bamma be the place to be for young fighters in this Country. Not to sure about the feeder org though, would only work if UFC sends over some of their decent mid-carders whilst they **** the roster. They can do that anyway with out the expense of buying it so I doubt it will happen
Great move. They could get good numbers If they got Daley and a few others. Didn't the Watson vs Rua do good numbers as well? 5 Need to promote more though barely know when they get fury on.
Daley signed for Bellator... I guess as he is a "Big" name he will be exclusive to them too. I hope BAMMA get rid of the Orville guy or whatever his name is... he is a full on card! He makes Goldberg look like Bas Rutten! Lynchburg
Forgot about that. Happened about a week ago to. They need to get someone they can get a fan base behind hopefully the money from Five can get a few talented names in.
Good news. C5 should commit to combat. Theres a market in the UK and the other channels don't show it. As I understand the boxing is already bringing in the punters. BAMMA could do good too.
