What We Do:
In order to build a career in MMA you need to gain recognition and exposure. FIGHTERLINK enables the business-to-business opportunities and contacts that allow for this kind of acknowledgement. We pride ourselves in creating an environment where individuals and organizations can leverage our tools to generate opportunities for themselves and become available to receive opportunities from others.
Why we are different:
FIGHTERLINK was built around the concept of providing important services to fighters in order to help them establish themselves and build credibility as athletes. It was natural to bring in Promoters, Sponsors, Managers, Trainers and other community members to help further enable the fighters success while, at the same time, allowing for the ability to build their own businesses and thus further supporting the sport of MMA. By involving yourself with FIGHTERLINK you are contributing directly to your own credibility and success as well as showing your level of commitment and adding to the community as a whole.
While other sites cater mostly to social interactions between individuals who already know each other, FIGHTERLINK serves more of a business-to-business/marketing function. Individuals use FIGHTERLINK for the purposes of forming those relationships that will help build their business or career.
þ Promoters use FIGHTERLINK to fill their fight cards and cross promote their events.
þ Managers use FIGHTERLINK to find the newest talent and to provide more opportunities to their clients.
þ Trainers use FIGHTERLINK to tell Fighters about their services.
þ Sponsors (“Partners”) use FIGHTERLINK to find fighters to endorse and use their products.
þ The Media uses FIGHTERLINK to gain direct access to the fighters and events people want to watch, read and learn more about and
þ Fighters use FIGHTLINK to, among other things, become accessible to all the User groups we just mentioned and to help build their careers.
Though most individuals have accounts with MySpace, Facebook and Twitter consider the following:

The point is…
If you are not already well known to those in a position to enhance your career or provide you with opportunities then chances are you will remain unknown or at least struggle for whatever recognition you can get. That is of course, unless you join FIGHTERLINK that consists only of individuals within the MMA community looking to form those important business relationships and contacts.
FIGHTERLINK aims to go beyond what is offered by typical social networking sites to provide a true marketing environment where individuals and opportunity can meet.
Why Choose Fighterlink?
In this business having a presence on several social networking sites, or even your own website has little benefit if people don’t know to look for YOU. When trying to market yourself, being “One in a Million,” is not a good thing in terms of “hits” or “pages” returned on a search. With FIGHTERLINK you are a part of a community that is focused on YOU, is literally built around YOU and provides the tools – should you decide to use them – that will help YOU stand out from the crowd.
We actively market for you inside and outside of the virtual environment. At events, through advertising and by leveraging established relationships, we get the word out there.
FIGHTERLINK is not solely affiliated with any single organization, therefore we effectively can serve all organizations large and small, amateur and professional with quality products and services – thus providing you with the best that the MMA community has to offer – no holds barred!
The FIGHTERLINK staff works tirelessly to ensure that the reputation of the company remains always positive across all promotions and organizations and that it is viewed by the community as an industry enabler with a goal of building MMA long-term.
