DeFiChain, the pioneering decentralized finance platform for Bitcoin, has proudly announced that its community has voted to sponsor the National Fighting Championship (NFC) this year. As the German equivalent of the globally renowned Ultimate Fighting Champion (UFC), the NFC organizes Germany’s premier mixed martial arts (MMA) fighting league. With six electrifying live events scheduled for 2023, this partnership promises to be an exciting collaboration between two innovative and dynamic entities.
Regarding our collaboration with DeFiChain, I would like to share my perspective as the Managing Director of Fighting GmbH, Michael Ortlepp. Our partnership has been a strategic move towards expanding our horizons in decentralized finance. As a team, we are thrilled to work alongside DeFiChain, a leading player in the industry. Our shared vision and values have created a strong foundation for a successful partnership. We look forward to the future and the endless possibilities that lie ahead.
It is a great joy and privilege for us to announce our partnership with DeFiChain. NFC as well as DeFiChain follow the same values and goals and are made for a great partnership that will have a lasting effect on the German MMA scene.
DeFiChain has proudly announced its sponsorship of five of the six highly anticipated matches this year. The sponsorship will encompass the upcoming NFC 13 Westfalenhallen Dortmund, scheduled for March 25, 2023, and NFC 14 Maritim Hotel Düsseldorf, set to take place on May 27, 2023. As a professional entity, DeFiChain is committed to supporting the growth and success of the sports industry, and we are thrilled to be a part of these exciting events.
Furthermore, the upcoming matches slated for the latter half of the year are as follows: NFC 15 Telekom Dome Bonn, set to take place on September 16, 2023; NFC 16 Showpalast Munich, scheduled for November 11, 2023; and NFC 17 Maritim Hotel Düsseldorf, to be held on December 16, 2023. These events promise to be a thrilling showcase of skill and athleticism, and we eagerly anticipate the excitement they will bring to combat sports.
In addition, DeFiChain is proud to announce its sponsorship of the “Fighter of the Night Bonus” for the most outstanding bout of the evening. The deserving fighters will receive well-deserved compensation in DFI, which they can use to make purchases, invest in dStocks, or engage in liquidity mining on DeFiChain to earn even more rewards. This is yet another example of our commitment to supporting the MMA community and promoting the growth of decentralized finance.
Delving deeper into the inspiration behind their sponsorship of the “Fighter Of The Night Bonus,” Benedikt Keck, Project Lead NFC Sponsoring at DeFiChain, shed further light on the matter. In a professional tone, Keck articulated the reasoning behind their decision.
I’m really happy about the partnership between us and the team of fighting.de. With the DeFiChain sponsored 10,000€ “Fighter of the Night Bonus” we are able to give the fighters the appreciation they deserve. Our community is looking forward to being part of this fantastic fighting community.
In a move that goes beyond the norm of solely rewarding the fighters, DeFiChain has gone the extra mile to recognize and reward a fan. As such, a “Fan of the Night Bonus” will be up for grabs, with one lucky fan being randomly selected to receive 1,000 DFI during the live event.
