Click on the image to the left to listen to this week's FNU Combat Sports Show featuring Stephen Andrews, an investor in http://www.mmaxm.com/. The new site streamlines the networking and business relationships between promoters, managers, and fighters. Andrews gives us the run down of the business model, describes the ultimate plans for the expansion of the business, and tells us how it all works. Fighters can use the site to find opportunities to fight while promoters can find replacements for injured fighters and post available fights to a wide network of MMA practitioners. The site is an e-commerce platform as well, and promoters must put money in escrow to pay any fighter who lands a fight gig through the platform. This prevents the horror stories created when fly-by-night promoters decide not to pay fighters if the gate turns out to be less than expected or other reasons make the show a disaster. http://www.mmaxm.com/ could potentially revolutionize and unite the MMA industry and keep fighters, promoters, and managers on the same page.
